As the title implies San Antonio's future is bright. Yesterday I attended the San Antonio Council of Residential Specialists (CRS) luncheon and the guest speaker was Dr. Henry Cisneros former Mayor of San Antonio.He had some great information about the happenings around the city.
Here are some highlights:
1. San Antonio has a stable economy that is attractive for companies.This is enticing to companies to bring new or expand existing jobs.
2. More jobs means more homes selling!With an increase in job growth we can expect San Antonio to have an increase in both home sales and values.
3. He mentioned recently seeing a few surveys that put San Antonio within the 10 percentile of cities fairing well through the recession.In one survey San Antonio was number one!
4. If you didn’t know Bio Science is huge in San Antonio employing over 120,000 people with revenue of $16 billion.Bio Science is divided into 4 sectors:
a. Medical Education
b. Medical Clinic
c. Medical Research
d. Bio Medical
5. Insurance giants All State and Nationwide will add a combined 1400 jobs in San Antonio in the near future.
As I heard from San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, at his State of the City address, San Antonio’s economy through tourism, housing, job growth, Bio Science, etc is doing great.I’ll sum it up with what Dr. Cisneros said, “San Antonio is on a Roll!”
