New Braunfels, Texas — mostly in Comal County; parts of the city east of the Guadalupe River and along I-35 are in Guadalupe County.
New Braunfels has grown fast along the I-35 corridor between San Antonio and Austin, and buyers here mostly want new construction. An older house in town, a river cabin or an inherited place that needs work can be easier to sell to a cash buyer who doesn't need it to look like a model home.
Instead of calling buyer after buyer, send one request. Cash buyers who work in Comal County compete for the house, and we match you with the one that fits your price and your timeline.

Common situations in Comal County
How each one works locally — and why a cash sale can help. General information, not legal advice.
Probate and inherited houses
Most New Braunfels estates are filed in Comal County, at the courthouse on Main Plaza, while a decedent who lived on the Guadalupe County side has the case opened in Seguin. A will can often be admitted to probate as a muniment of title when there are no debts other than a mortgage.
More on probate and inherited houses →Behind on the mortgage
A New Braunfels owner whose loan is in default gets notices from the lender before the property is posted for a first-Tuesday trustee's sale at the county courthouse. Selling before that sale date usually leaves the owner with whatever equity is left instead of losing it at auction. You own the house until the sale, so you can usually still sell.
More on behind on the mortgage →Behind on property taxes
On the Comal side, the Comal County Tax Office collects the bill; Guadalupe County collects for its part of the city. A tax account left unpaid can end in a lawsuit and a tax sale, and homeowners 65 or older or disabled can ask to defer taxes on their homestead.

The City of New Braunfels code enforcement staff respond to high grass, junk, unsafe structures and short-term-rental complaints near the rivers.

Selling for cash in New Braunfels: questions
My New Braunfels house took water in a river flood. Can I sell it without rebuilding?
Yes. Cash buyers purchase flood-damaged houses in their current condition and handle the drying out, repairs and any permits themselves. Telling the buyer about the flood up front, along with any insurance claim, helps the sale go smoothly.
How fast can I sell my house for cash in New Braunfels?
Texas sales close through a title company, which pays off the loan, the taxes and any HOA balance before you're paid. Once you accept an offer, most Comal County cash sales close in one to three weeks — sooner if there's no estate or lien paperwork to clear, or later on a date you choose.
