The Situation
What You're Facing
Being a landlord in San Antonio looked great on a spreadsheet five years ago. Then came the late-night calls, the eviction that took six months, the AC unit that died in August, and the property manager that took 10% to do half the job.
If you own a rental in San Antonio, Schertz, Cibolo, or anywhere in Bexar County, you're not alone — burnout among small landlords is at an all-time high. Insurance is up, property taxes climb every year, and Texas's tenant-friendly post-pandemic eviction climate has worn out a lot of mom-and-pop owners.
The good news: you don't have to evict, repair, or even clean before selling. We buy rentals with tenants in place every month — and we also buy vacant rentals sitting empty between tenants and rentals where the mortgage is already in foreclosure.
Why People Sell
Why San Antonio Homeowners Choose to Sell
Burnout Is Real
Years of midnight calls and tenant drama wear anyone down.
Repairs Outpace Rent
ACs, roofs, water heaters — South Texas heat is brutal on rentals.
Property Taxes Climb Every Year
Bexar County appraisals have hit non-homesteaded rentals especially hard.
Bad Tenant, No Easy Out
Eviction backlogs in Bexar County JP courts have stretched 60–120 days.
Ready to Retire or 1031
Many landlords want to cash out, simplify, and redeploy into syndications or passive plays.
Inherited a Rental
Owning a rental wasn't the plan — it came with the estate.
The Hard Parts
Challenges Homeowners Run Into
Selling with Tenants In Place
Most retail buyers want vacant homes. We don't — we buy tenant-occupied every week.
Deferred Maintenance
Years of patch jobs hidden behind a renter's furniture. We buy as-is.
Below-Market Leases
A long-term tenant at $1,200/month when market is $1,800 kills retail value. Doesn't hurt our offer.
Section 8 Properties
We buy them. We understand HAP contracts and HUD inspections.
Pet Damage
Carpet, doors, baseboards — we've seen it all and we don't care.
Capital Gains & Depreciation Recapture

Local Knowledge · San Antonio & Surrounding Areas
We Know the Neighborhoods You Live In
Small landlords across the San Antonio metro — from the inner-loop SFRs to newer Schertz subdivisions — make up the bulk of who we buy from. We know the rental market on the ground.
Neighborhoods We Serve
We've purchased rentals in Schertz neighborhoods including Greenshire, Belmont Park, Crescent Bend, Crossvine, and Mission Hills — many were strong rental areas because of proximity to Randolph AFB and the 1518/1604 corridor.
County Coverage
Bexar County JP courts and Guadalupe County JP courts handle most of the eviction work in our service area. We're familiar with both and what timelines look like in 2025.
Local Property Values
San Antonio rental values currently span from $130k tenant-occupied East Side singles to $375k+ Schertz Crossvine 3/2/2 homes. We make rental-aware offers — we know what they'll re-rent for and what cap rates investors want today.
Military Homeowners
Schertz, Cibolo, and Universal City rentals lean heavily on military tenants from Randolph AFB. Many of our landlord sellers built portfolios specifically to rent to PCS-in military families and are now ready to cash out for retirement.
Inherited & Older Homes
A surprising number of rentals we buy are inherited older homes the heir converted to rentals. After 5–10 years of being an accidental landlord, they're ready to be done. Many are 50–70-year-old houses with original systems and tired finishes.
Local Market Conditions
Rent growth in San Antonio has flattened in 2024–2025, and insurance plus tax increases have squeezed margins on older rentals. That's why so many tired landlords are exiting — the spread isn't what it was.
Service Area
Coverage includes all of San Antonio, plus Schertz, Cibolo, Selma, Universal City, Converse, Live Oak, Boerne, Helotes, and New Braunfels.
“Owned three rentals in Schertz and Cibolo. Sold all three to South Texas Home Investors in 90 days, 1031'd into a passive deal, and haven't fixed a toilet since. Best decision I've made.”
— Robert K., Schertz, Crossvine
