Comal County is home for us. Our office is on Main Plaza in New Braunfels, a few doors from the courthouse where the county's foreclosure sales are held. When we price a house in Bulverde or Canyon Lake or Garden Ridge, we are pricing a market we drive through every week — not a spreadsheet.
What Selling in Comal County Actually Looks Like
Comal County has an unusual combination: some of the highest home values in the corridor paired with one of its gentler tax rates. That sounds like good news for sellers, and for a well-updated house it often is. For a dated house, an inherited house, or one that needs work, the same conditions cut the other way.
Tax figures are county medians published by Ownwell, last updated April 2026. Your own rate depends on your exact taxing entities — check your notice from the Comal Appraisal District.
Where We Buy in Comal County
We buy houses as-is, for cash, anywhere in the county — including New Braunfels, Canyon Lake, Bulverde, Garden Ridge, Spring Branch, Fischer, Sattler, Startzville and the unincorporated areas in between. Lake property, Hill Country acreage, a tract house off Loop 337 — the condition is not the problem.
We also buy throughout the neighbouring counties, so if your property sits across a county line from where you thought it did, it still qualifies. See Guadalupe County and Hays County, or call and we will tell you in a sentence.
The County Paperwork, in Plain English
Three pieces of Comal County process come up again and again when people call us. None of them are as complicated as they sound.
- Your value comes from the Comal Appraisal District, not from us The district sets the appraised value your taxes are based on. If you think it is wrong, the protest deadline is generally May 15 or 30 days after your notice is mailed, whichever is later. That appraised value is not the same thing as what your house would sell for.
- The sale gets recorded with the County Clerk The deed is filed in the county's real property records. That filing is what actually transfers the house. A title company handles it as part of closing — you do not file anything yourself.
- Foreclosure sales run on the first Tuesday Comal County holds them on the northeast courthouse steps at 100 Main Plaza in New Braunfels, on the first Tuesday of each month. If a date has been posted for your property, you usually still have room to sell before it — but the clock is real, and it is short.
If you are facing that last one, read our guide on how to stop foreclosure in Texas before you do anything else. There are four options and selling is only one of them.
Listing Here vs. Selling for Cash
For a Comal County house in good condition, listing is often the right answer and we will say so. The honest comparison looks like this:
| Listing in Comal County | Money Fast 4 Houses | |
|---|---|---|
| Updated, move-in-ready house | Strong position — can win top dollar | Still an option if speed matters more |
| Dated or repair-needing house | Price cuts and long days on market | As-is offer, no repairs |
| Competing with new builds | Against incentives you can't match | Not a factor — we're buying your house |
| Carrying costs while you wait | ~$3,558/yr in taxes, plus insurance and utilities | Ends at closing, 7–14 days |
| Commissions and fees | Typically 5–6% plus closing costs | None — the offer is what you get |
The middle rows are where most Comal County sellers land. If the house needs work, the local market's high expectations stop being an advantage and start being a problem.

Do you buy houses everywhere in Comal County, or just New Braunfels?
Everywhere in the county. New Braunfels is where our office is, but we buy in Canyon Lake, Bulverde, Garden Ridge, Spring Branch, Fischer, Sattler, Startzville and the unincorporated areas between them. Lake property and Hill Country acreage included.
My appraised value from the Comal Appraisal District is higher than your offer. Why?
They are two different numbers measuring two different things. The appraisal district sets a value for taxation, using mass-appraisal models across whole neighbourhoods. Our offer is what the house is worth to a cash buyer today, in its current condition, with no repairs and no showings. A house needing a roof and a kitchen appraises the same as its updated neighbour on paper — it does not sell for the same money.
There is a foreclosure date posted on my house. Is it too late?
Usually not, but the window is short. Comal County holds its sales on the first Tuesday of each month at the courthouse on Main Plaza. A sale can normally be stopped if the debt is resolved before it happens, and a cash sale is one way to do that. Call as early as you can — the more days before that Tuesday, the more options you have. Our guide on stopping foreclosure in Texas covers the alternatives too.
I inherited a house in Comal County and it is still in my parent's name. Can I sell?
Often yes, but it depends on where the estate is in the process and whether there was a will. Texas has some genuinely fast probate routes, and we have bought plenty of houses mid-probate. The practical first step is finding out which route applies to you — our guide on selling a house in probate in Texas walks through it, and we are happy to talk it through before you spend money on anything.
Why are the property taxes so different between Bulverde and Canyon Lake?
Because the rate you pay is the sum of every taxing entity your address sits inside — county, city, school district, emergency services, and any special districts. Across Comal County that produces a real spread, from roughly 0.59% in Fischer to about 1.22% in Bulverde. It is why two houses with the same value can cost noticeably different amounts to simply hold on to.
Do I pay commission or closing costs?
No. There is no agent commission because there is no agent, and we cover the standard closing costs. The number we agree is the number that reaches you at the title company. If you want to see how that compares with a traditional sale, our breakdown of the real cost of selling a house in Texas has the maths.
