The real estate market may be booming in Texas, but that doesn't mean you have to spend a ton of money on a house. At least not here in San Antonio. We've been digging around town and found some beautiful homes at an even more attractive price.
Here are five of our favorite houses on the market for under $200,000:
1. 11907 Flame Tree Cove is 2,033 square-feet of airy space with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The stone exterior has serious curb appeal, but it's the floor plan and high ceilings that makes us swoon. And so does the price: $199,999.
2. Located in Universal City, 362 Kimberly Dr. is ready for move in with an updated kitchen, floors, and a beautiful stone fireplace in the living room. There are four bedrooms and two bathrooms within the 2,515 square foot home priced at $189,000.
3. Enter 9323 Overland Way, a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with 1675 square feet of open space. Though it's not large, the open floor plan and natural light \ make the home feel bigger than it actually is. Our favorite part? The covered patio in the back. It's on the market for $182,500.
4. Zero in on the details of 27 Rainy Ave. and you'll be sold. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom home has beautiful wood and tile flooring throughout the first floor. Within the 1,750 square feet is ample closet space in the master bedroom (two walk-in closets), a loft area upstairs, and a sizeable laundry room. It's located by the Leon Creek Greenway and offers great views from the multi-level deck for $162,500.
5. 18922 Lookout Mountain Trail is a small sanctuary for folks who want to escape the city. Nestled in Helotes, this 587 square-foot home — with one bedroom and one bathroom — makes for the perfect cozy getaway. There's a small balcony perfect for dining outside under a starry sky. It's listing price? $129,900.

HAUTE PROPERTIES
Would you like to take your tradlife TikTok to the next level? Or perhaps just live in a reasonable facsimile of Lonesome Dove? High Lonesome Ranch in McMullen County is up for sale, about an hour-and-a-half drive away from San Antonio.
While the new listing isn't public, the sale is being handled by Brandon Scott of the Texas Ranch Company LLC. Interested buyers can contact his office for viewings and pricing.
The sellers purchased the 4,100-acre Tilden ranch in 1995 and transformed it into a Wild West getaway destination. The property features a real Old West town themed around Lonesome Dove, the fictional town chronicled in the acclaimed Larry McMurtry novel and 1989 miniseries adaptation of the same name.
The main street is lined with facades themed to look like Wild West businesses, but which actually hide luxury guest rooms stuffed with antiques gathered from all over Texas. The site has been used as a wedding and event venue and includes a saloon, 40-seat church, gift shop, a restaurant, pool, conference room, and horse barn.

The land has also been used as a private game reserve for hunters. Deer, dove, wild hog, quail, turkey, various varmints, and duck are all native to the ranch. In addition, there are over 40 stocked bodies of water for fishing.
There is also a jail with real, period-appropriate locks in case you need to handle poachers.
If hunting and fishing aren't your cup of tea, the property also includes an artificial bat cave that houses thousands of Mexican free-tailed bats. Themed to look like an old gold mine, the structure shades slumbering bats before they emerge at dusk to eat tons of insects.
The owners are reportedly hoping to transfer the property to someone who will continue using the structures for Old West education and themed outings. Whether that results in shootouts is yet to be seen.
