Documenting property across South Central Texas.

Homes in the city, ranches in the Hill Country, and land that takes a morning to walk. Most of what we do is within ninety minutes of San Antonio.

Where we work

San Antonio, the Hill Country, and out from there.

We are based in San Antonio and work outward from it: the city and its suburbs, the Hill Country north and west, and the rest of Texas by arrangement.

San Antonio and the suburbs

Post-war bungalows with three generations of additions, and 2000s subdivisions where the builder documentation vanished with the builder. Both are the same problem: nobody wrote down what is in the walls.

The Hill Country

Boerne, Bulverde, Fair Oaks, Spring Branch, Canyon Lake. Well heads, septic, propane, gates and outbuildings spread across acreage — the things a city record never has to account for.

Ranch and raw land

Bandera, Kerrville, Comfort. Fence lines, water, pumps, barns and the two structures nobody has been inside since the last owner. Capture takes longer and matters more.

Absentee owners

A great deal of Hill Country property is owned from Houston, Dallas or out of state. That is the case a record is built for: the drive is the cost, and the record removes it.

Estates and probate

Bexar County and the surrounding counties. What is in the house, what it is, and where — recorded once while somebody still knows.

Flood and hail country

This region gets both. A dated, photographed baseline before the weather is worth considerably more than a claim adjuster's guess afterwards.

Travel

What the drive costs.

Inside Loop 1604 there is no travel charge. Out to Boerne, New Braunfels, Bulverde, Fair Oaks Ranch, Canyon Lake and Spring Branch is usually a flat addition rather than mileage. Further than that — Fredericksburg, Kerrville, Austin, the Coastal Bend — we quote the trip honestly, and if it is not worth your money we say so.

If you are outside this and the property is worth the trip, ask anyway — we will tell you whether it is.

Next step

Tell us about the property.

Where it is, roughly how big, and what you are trying to stop having to drive out for. We will tell you what it would cost and what you would get.
