Your New Braunfels Real Estate Agent & Relocation Guide
Rivers, Hill Country views and an easy drive to both San Antonio and Austin. We'll help you find the New Braunfels neighborhood that fits your life, and the home that fits your budget.
Making New Braunfels home
New Braunfels has the kind of small-town charm that's hard to find, with the space and amenities of a growing city. Spend summer days floating the Comal or Guadalupe, catch live music at Gruene Hall, and still be about 30 miles from San Antonio and about 50 from Austin. It's no surprise New Braunfels has been one of the fastest-growing cities in the country.
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.

The Comal and Guadalupe rivers run right through town, with tubing, swimming and riverside parks just minutes from home.

Schools
New Braunfels is served mainly by New Braunfels ISD and Comal ISD, and which district a home falls in depends on where it sits in town. There are also private and charter options in the area.
Because attendance zones can change, we always confirm the assigned schools for any home you're considering before you make an offer.
