Renting a Home in Castroville

Castroville property management covers a small town with a real history. Castroville is known as the Little Alsace of Texas, settled by Alsatian immigrants in the 1840s, and it still carries that architecture and identity along the Medina River. It sits about 25 minutes west of downtown San Antonio via US-90, in Medina County.

Harvest Real Estate Property Management manages Castroville rentals from our Helotes office, with the same pricing, screening and six-month inspections as every home we manage.

How Harvest Real Estate Property Management Serves Castroville

Broker Betsy Nava-Flores has worked the towns around San Antonio for more than two decades. In a smaller market like Castroville, there are fewer comparable rentals at any given time, so pricing a rental takes local judgment, not a citywide average. A rent set from San Antonio numbers can be wrong for a Castroville home in either direction.

Castroville owners pay 10% of rent charged each month plus a leasing fee of 50% of one month's rent, or 8% per month for military owners.

Castroville Rental Homes and Property Types

Castroville's housing centers on its historic district along the Medina River, with newer homes on the edges of town as it has grown. The two need different care as rentals. Older homes need close attention to their systems at each six-month inspection, and changes to a property in the historic district can come with rules that depend on the address, so we check with the city before any work beyond routine repairs. Newer homes on the edge of town are usually simpler to maintain.

Living in Castroville
