By Tami Price, Broker Owner, Tami Price Properties | Updated September 2026

Schertz, a city northeast of San Antonio near JBSA Randolph that spans parts of Guadalupe, Bexar, and Comal counties, offers established neighborhoods, master-planned communities, and new construction. Based on LERA MLS closed sales from September 2025 through September 2026, Schertz neighborhoods range from a median of $160,000 in Aviation Heights to new Highland Homes in Hallie's Cove that sold for about $860,000 to $960,000. The Crossvine and Homestead were the most active communities, with 96 and 94 sales and medians of about $446,500 and $547,900.

This guide profiles fifteen Schertz communities using real sales data rather than online estimates. It was prepared by Tami Price, Broker Owner of Tami Price Properties and a U.S. Air Force veteran, with two decades of experience and about 1,000 closed transactions across Greater San Antonio.

Why does location within Schertz matter so much?

Schertz is geographically larger than many buyers realize. Two homes with a Schertz address can offer very different commute patterns, tax rates, neighborhood character, and access to shopping, schools, and major roads such as I-35, I-10, and FM 3009.

"One of the biggest things buyers don't realize is that Schertz isn't one uniform housing market. Location within Schertz matters. I encourage buyers to evaluate the specific location rather than choosing based on the city name alone."

Schertz community profiles

Each profile lists closed sales, price range, and home and lot sizes from LERA MLS single-family sales, September 2025 through September 2026, ordered from lowest to highest median price. Medians are shown only where there were enough sales to be meaningful.

Should I buy new construction or resale in Schertz?

Neither is automatically the better choice. Tami helps buyers compare the actual financial and practical differences. Read what to know about buying new construction.

Should I buy in Schertz or Cibolo?

Schertz and Cibolo are neighboring communities, and neither is automatically the better choice. Cibolo has experienced substantial residential growth, with a significant amount of newer housing and continued development. Schertz offers a broader mix, including established neighborhoods, newer master-planned communities, and homes on larger lots in certain areas.

For military buyers, both can work well for JBSA Randolph, often still called Randolph Air Force Base, but the specific neighborhood and route to the base matter more than whether the mailing address says Schertz or Cibolo. Growth across the Schertz and Cibolo area can also change traffic patterns over time. Read Military Homebuying in San Antonio.

What should Schertz sellers know?

With prices varying widely by neighborhood, and with new construction competing in communities like The Crossvine, Homestead, and Rhine Valley, a Schertz home is best priced against recent sales of similar homes nearby, not citywide averages or online estimates.

Concessions were part of nearly 8 in 10 sales, so sellers should plan for them when estimating net proceeds. Request a free CMA for your Schertz home or read how Tami prices homes.

Is Kensington Ranch in Schertz or Selma?

Kensington Ranch is in Schertz, although some listings and websites describe it as Selma. Tami recommends confirming the city, county, and taxing entities for any address.

Should I buy in Schertz or Cibolo?

Neither is automatically better. Cibolo has seen substantial newer construction, while Schertz offers a broader mix of established neighborhoods, master-planned communities, and larger lots in some areas. The right choice depends on commute, budget, home style, and total monthly cost.

Is Schertz a good location for JBSA Randolph?

Schertz can work well for JBSA Randolph, often still called Randolph Air Force Base, but the specific neighborhood and route to the base matter more than the city name on the address.

What school district serves Schertz?

Much of Schertz is served by Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD, but a Schertz mailing address doesn't guarantee a specific school, and boundaries can change. Verify assigned schools directly with the district for each address.

Are seller concessions common in Schertz?

Yes. Nearly 8 in 10 of the 427 sales in this guide included a seller concession, most often between about $5,000 and $15,000. In The Crossvine and Homestead, where builder incentives are common, the share was even higher.
