New Braunfels, TX Homes and Neighborhoods

New Braunfels sits on I-35 between San Antonio and Austin, where the spring-fed Comal River meets the Guadalupe. Founded in 1845 by German settlers under Prince Carl of Solms-Braunfels, it is the county seat of Comal County, and part of the city reaches into Guadalupe County. Buyers look here for the rivers, the Hill Country edge on the west side, the Gruene Historic District, and a commute in either direction along the I-35 corridor.

Buying a Home in New Braunfels

The homes for sale on this page show what is listed in New Braunfels and at what asking prices. Hill Country acreage and homes near the rivers tend to sit toward the upper end, so set your budget with the kind of lot you want in mind, and set up listing alerts for your price range so you see new matches as they come up.

Mindy Thomas of Mindy Thomas Realty, a licensed real estate broker in Texas and Colorado, brings more than 18 years of experience to buyers here, along with the Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR®) designation and the e-PRO® and SFR® certifications. Eligible buyers receive a Buyer Rebate, subject to applicable requirements.

The homes

Homes in New Braunfels are almost all single-family homes, built mostly in the 2010s and 2020s. Expect mostly three- and four-bedroom homes, most of them about 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft on standard-size lots, and a mix of one- and two-story homes. Much of the city's growth has come as subdivisions, especially along the I-35 and State Highway 46 corridors. Older homes, larger lots and established streets are found closer to downtown, Landa Park and Gruene.

Communities

  • Vintage Oaks: a master community in the Hill Country west of town, with a resort-style amenity center and schools in Comal ISD.
  • Rockwall Ranch: a gated neighborhood with private, tree-lined roads and homes on lots of roughly an acre, with its own page of listings and local detail.

HOAs

In New Braunfels, most homes are in an HOA, which is typical of a market built largely as subdivisions. Dues, what they cover (pools, parks, gates, common areas) and the deed restrictions vary from one neighborhood to the next, so read the HOA documents before your option period ends.

Schools

Two main districts serve New Braunfels in separate parts of the city: New Braunfels ISD and Comal ISD, whose Canyon High School is in New Braunfels. Small parts of the city on the Guadalupe County side fall in Marion ISD and Navarro ISD. Neighbors on the same side of town can be in different districts, and boundaries change as schools open, so confirm the assigned schools for a specific address with the district before you buy.

Living in New Braunfels

The rivers shape daily life here. Comal Springs rise in Landa Park and feed the Comal River, which runs only a few miles through town before it joins the Guadalupe; the city runs river access parks, including Prince Solms Park and the tube chute. Gruene Hall and the Gruene Historic District bring live music and dining, Schlitterbahn started here, and Wurstfest fills town each November. For more Hill Country and lake living nearby, see homes in Canyon Lake, Spring Branch, Bulverde and Boerne.

Any buyer-broker compensation is negotiated separately.

Questions to ask before making an offer

  • Is the home in Comal County or Guadalupe County? That decides the appraisal district, the county tax rate and where you file your homestead exemption.
  • Which school district and campuses serve the address?
  • Is the home in a FEMA flood zone, and will your lender require flood insurance?
  • Is the home inside city limits, and who provides water, sewer and electricity? Outside the city, ask about well and septic.
  • For new construction, what are the builder warranty, HOA dues and any special district or MUD taxes?
