Rentals in Kendalia, TX

Finding a rental near Kendalia

Kendalia is a quiet unincorporated spot in northeastern Kendall County, about 35 miles from downtown San Antonio. Rentals rarely list Kendalia as their city, so the count here stretches 12 miles and picks up about 28 homes, mostly with Spring Branch addresses in ZIP 78070 and a few toward Boerne and Bergheim. Comal ISD serves about 24 of them and Boerne ISD about three.

Because of that wide reach, think of these numbers as describing the rural stretch between Kendalia, Spring Branch and Bergheim rather than one town.

What rent costs

The median asking rent in and around Kendalia is about $1,850 a month, and the middle half runs from about $1,600 to $2,500. Two-bedroom homes are around $1,580 and three-bedroom homes around $2,170. The few larger homes with four or more bedrooms ask far more, with a median near $6,000, so that figure reflects a handful of high-end properties rather than a typical rent.

The median rental is fairly compact at about 1,440 square feet, and many are recent builds, with a typical construction year around 2017.

Neighborhoods

Cypress Cove has the most, about seven listings across its sections. Comal Hills has three, and Indian Hills, Rebecca Creek Park and The Preserve at Singing Hills about two each, with single homes in Waterstone, Barcroft Estates, Lake of the Hills and Cordillera Ranch. About 19 are single-family houses, and the rest are a mix of townhomes, duplexes, apartments and one manufactured home.

A renter's market, for now

Rentals in this area take a while to lease, with a median of about 64 days listed, and roughly 29 percent have lowered their rent. Only about 7 percent are new this week. That gives you room to ask for a lower rent, a longer lease or help with move-in costs, but it also means the selection is thin, so look at Spring Branch, Bulverde and Blanco too.

Country rentals may come with a well, septic system or propane, so ask who handles maintenance and how utilities are billed. Landlords will still expect an application, proof of income, credit and background screening and a deposit.
