Why buyers choose Schertz

What draws people here.

  • Randolph AFB proximity keeps VA loan demand strong — a huge segment of buyers here use their VA benefit.
  • SCUC ISD (particularly Clemens and Steele feeders) is well-regarded and less price-inflated than NEISD or AHISD.
  • Newer subdivisions like The Crossvine offer amenity-forward living at price points $150–$300 per sqft.
  • I-35 gives fast access to San Antonio, New Braunfels, San Marcos, and Austin corridor employers.

Things I make sure clients see coming

What to watch for.

  • Some Schertz addresses are in Guadalupe, Comal, or Bexar county depending on the street — county affects tax rate.
  • Newer PIDs can carry sub-district assessments in addition to standard ad valorem — read the closing disclosure carefully.
  • I-35 traffic is real, especially north into New Braunfels — flex-schedule buyers do better here than 8-to-5 commuters.

Working with Roman in Schertz

Local eyes. Both licenses.

I'm dual-licensed as a Texas REALTOR® (TREC #713126) and mortgage loan officer (NMLS #277737). In Schertz, that means the offer, the financing, and the property-specific quirks — MUD taxes, well/septic, HOA transfer fees, tax proration — all get modeled before we write.

If you're relocating, I'll build a commute + payment + school analysis and walk it with you. If you already know Schertz, I'll bring the current active/pending/sold data for the exact street you want.

Frequently Asked

Schertz real estate questions.

The questions buyers and sellers actually ask me about Schertz — schools, taxes, HOAs, commute, and market timing. Straight answers, no scripts.

What school district serves Schertz?

Schertz is primarily served by Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District (SCUC ISD). The main high schools are Samuel Clemens High School and Byron P. Steele II High School, both well-regarded. Some Schertz addresses feed to Comal ISD or East Central ISD depending on street location.

How close is Schertz to Randolph Air Force Base?

Schertz is directly adjacent to Randolph Air Force Base, with most Schertz addresses within a 5-10 minute drive of the main gate. This proximity makes Schertz one of the top locations for active-duty Air Force families and retirees using VA loans in the San Antonio metro.

What is the average home price in Schertz, Texas?

Schertz home prices in 2026 typically range from $275,000 for smaller homes to $650,000+ for larger custom builds. The mid-market band is $375,000 to $525,000, giving Schertz one of the best price-per-square-foot values in the San Antonio metro.

Which county is Schertz in?

Schertz spans three counties: Guadalupe County (majority of addresses), Comal County, and Bexar County. Your county determines property tax rate, appraisal district, and voting jurisdiction — always verify the exact county for any address before writing an offer.

How is the commute from Schertz to San Antonio?

Schertz sits along the I-35 corridor and is approximately 20 minutes to downtown San Antonio. New Braunfels is 25 minutes north, and the drive to Austin is about 60-75 minutes depending on traffic. I-35 rush-hour traffic can add significant time during peak commute periods.

Are VA loans common in Schertz?

Yes — because of Randolph AFB proximity, VA loans are extremely common in Schertz. Many local sellers and their agents are familiar with VA appraisal requirements and inspection standards. As a dual-licensed REALTOR® and mortgage advisor, I structure VA offers to compete effectively in multiple-offer situations.

What is The Crossvine in Schertz?

The Crossvine is one of Schertz's newer master-planned communities, offering amenity-forward living with pools, trails, and community events. It's a popular option for buyers wanting new construction with HOA-managed amenities within the SCUC ISD footprint.
