San Antonio Property Management — Better Tenants, Faster Placement

The industry standard in San Antonio is 8–10% of monthly rent. On the SA average of $1,700/mo, that's $136–$170/mo ($1,632–$2,040/year) just in management fees. Flat Fee Landlord starts at $139/mo — a flat rate that never scales with your rent. No percentage fees. Renewal fees vary by plan: Basic $500, Preferred $450, Concierge included. A vendor coordination fee applies to maintenance work.

We charge a flat monthly fee — not a percentage of your rent. Most San Antonio property managers charge 8–10% of monthly rent, which means a Stone Oak property at $2,200/mo costs you $176–$220/mo in management fees alone. With Flat Fee Landlord, your management fee stays the same whether your property rents for $1,400 in the east side or $2,400 in Alamo Heights. Plans start at $139/mo. Renewal fees vary by plan (Basic $500, Preferred $450, Concierge included).

Yes. Every lease we draft complies with the Texas Property Code (Chapter 92), including the 30-day security deposit return requirement, lead paint disclosure rules (required for all pre-1978 properties), move-in/move-out inspection reports, and Bexar County-specific rental requirements. Texas landlord-tenant law gives landlords broad protections — we enforce them correctly so you don't face costly disputes.

Our San Antonio metro average is 19 days from listing to signed lease. JBSA (Lackland, Fort Sam Houston, Randolph) military relocation cycles drive steady demand, and the Medical Center creates consistent tenant demand. Our 21-day placement guarantee means we have a direct financial incentive to move quickly.

Military tenants near JBSA bases can break leases under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) with 30 days notice when they receive PCS orders. This creates off-cycle vacancies that can hit hard if you're not prepared. We screen for military tenants upfront, flag SCRA risk, and build protection clauses into every military-tenant lease. If a tenant breaks under SCRA, we replace them at no additional cost under our tenant warranty.

Bexar County has been aggressive with property tax increases — median residential assessments are up 8–15% annually due to JBSA expansion and Medical Center growth. Rising taxes are eating into your cash flow faster than rent increases. We help landlords file protests with the Bexar Appraisal District and track market evidence to challenge inflated valuations. Tax protest assistance is included with management.

JBSA (Lackland, Fort Sam Houston, Randolph) is the region's largest employer and military installation. Permanent Change of Station orders create predictable tenant turnover — typically 18–24 month lease cycles. We factor military relocation into screening, pricing, and lease strategy. Our average lease time of 19 days reflects the ready demand from incoming PCS transfers.

San Antonio's proximity to River Walk creates STR competition, but the city has been tightening STR regulations. Some landlords try illegally subletting to Airbnb or using properties as vacation rentals without permits — which tanks your long-term rental value. We keep your lease secure by enforcing strict no-subletting clauses and screening out investors looking to flip your property into an STR. Long-term rental protection is built into every lease.

San Antonio metro rents range from $1,400–$2,400/mo depending on neighborhood, with Stone Oak and Alamo Heights on the higher end. At 8–10%, that translates to $112–$240/mo in management fees — and the percentage model penalizes landlords in higher-rent areas. Our flat fee means you keep more of the rent whether your property is in downtown areas or premium suburbs. The savings compound faster in Stone Oak than in lower-rent corridors.
