The housing bubble may be bursting elsewhere, but San Antonio remains a seller's market.  Sale prices of existing homes climbed 9 percent in the first quarter of 2006, compared with the same quarter in 2005, according to a report released this week by the San Antonio Board of Realtors' Multiple Listing Service.  (see the this article click on the "San Antonio Forecast" tab above)
