Making Fredericksburg home

Fredericksburg is the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Founded by German settlers in 1846, it's known for its historic Main Street, peach orchards, dozens of nearby wineries and the granite dome of Enchanted Rock just up the road. It's about 70 miles from San Antonio and 80 from Austin, close enough to visit the city, far enough to feel like a getaway every day.

We're the Fisher Liang Group at BK Real Estate, and helping people make big moves is what we do. Nami has been licensed since 2017 and is an award-winning, consistent top producer. We'll walk you through neighborhoods, school districts, commutes and price points so you can buy with confidence, even if you're shopping from out of town.

Why people are moving to Fredericksburg

Hill Country at its best

Rolling hills, live oaks, wildflowers and starry skies, with Enchanted Rock and the Pedernales River nearby.

No state income tax

Like all of Texas, Fredericksburg has no state income tax. Property taxes vary by area, and we'll help you compare them before you buy.

Historic Main Street

Shops, restaurants, galleries and museums, including the National Museum of the Pacific War, all within walking distance.

Wine country

Dozens of wineries and tasting rooms line the roads around town, especially along US-290.

German heritage

Historic stone buildings, Sunday houses and traditions like Oktoberfest keep the town's roots alive.

A slower pace

A favorite for retirees, remote workers and second-home buyers who want small-town living.

Not sure which area fits you? Tell us your commute, budget and must-haves, and we'll put together a short list of neighborhoods to tour, in person or by video.

Fredericksburg is served by Fredericksburg ISD, and there are private school options in the area as well.

Because attendance zones can change, we always confirm the assigned schools for any home you're considering before you make an offer.

Fredericksburg market snapshot

Fredericksburg sits at a higher price point than much of the Hill Country, and homes tend to take longer to sell here, which gives buyers time to compare and negotiate.

Frequently asked questions

Is Fredericksburg a good place to buy a home?

Fredericksburg offers classic Hill Country living, a walkable historic downtown and a strong sense of community. Prices are higher than many nearby towns, so the right fit depends on your budget and goals. We're happy to walk through the numbers with you.

Can I use a Fredericksburg home as a short-term rental?

Fredericksburg has its own rules and permits for short-term rentals, and they can change. We'll help you check the current requirements for any property before you buy.

What are property taxes like in Fredericksburg?

Texas has no state income tax, so property taxes are how local services are funded. Rates vary by city, county and school district, and newer developments can carry additional MUD or PID taxes. We'll help you compare the full cost of any home before you buy.

Can you help me buy a home in Fredericksburg if I live out of state?

Yes. Many of our clients start their search from out of town. We offer video tours, neighborhood guidance and remote-friendly closings so you can buy with confidence from anywhere.
