San Antonio Distressed Property Investing
San Antonio still has a strong rental market with strong demand. The rent for a single-family home is approximately $2,000, while apartments cost around $1,290. Solid rental yields of 7-8% are in Southtown, Eastside, and Hardandale.
Demand for rental properties in these areas is being driven by the strong labor market. In particular, the construction sector added 1,000 jobs in May 2025. The San Antonio region’s unadjusted unemployment rate was quite low at 3.7% in May, as well.
