The Surge Take: Alamo Ranch

Alamo Ranch scores 81.1/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #22 of 37 San Antonio-area submarkets we track. That's mid-pack for the San Antonio market: not a headline submarket, but often where value hides — mid-tier areas typically have lower acquisition costs and less STR competition than the trophy neighborhoods. The average listing here grosses $34,192/year — about 7% below the San Antonio metro average, so unit selection and design matter more than usual.

The revenue profile is a $187 average daily rate at 59% occupancy (RevPAR $94). That's a healthy mid-market ADR — the sweet spot for durable demand from both leisure and work travel. As a suburban submarket, demand skews toward families, relocations, and medical or project stays — larger homes tend to outperform.

On the regulatory side, Alamo Ranch falls under Unincorporated Bexar County, which is currently permissive: No county permit or zoning; Bexar County HOT still due via the Neumo portal. Low regulatory friction is a real advantage — just verify HOA and deed restrictions, which apply regardless of city or county rules.

Alamo Ranch STR Regulations

Permissive

Jurisdiction: Unincorporated Bexar County · Last verified 2026-08-12

No county permit or zoning; Bexar County HOT still due via the Neumo portal

Texas counties cannot zone or license STRs, so unincorporated Bexar County areas (e.g., Alamo Ranch) have no permit requirement — San Antonio's Type 1/Type 2 permit system applies only inside city limits. However, Bexar County levies a county hotel occupancy tax that all STRs in the county (inside and outside city limits) must report monthly through the City of San Antonio's Neumo portal. HOA and deed restrictions are the main constraint in master-planned communities like Alamo Ranch.

What operators need to know
  • No county STR permit, registration, or zoning
  • Bexar County HOT reported and paid monthly via the Neumo portal
  • 6% state HOT via Texas Comptroller (platforms remit state portion)
  • Check HOA/deed restrictions — critical in Alamo Ranch and similar communities
Hotel Occupancy Tax
1.75% county + 6% state (no city tax outside city limits)

HOA covenants and deed restrictions can prohibit short-term rentals regardless of Unincorporated Bexar County rules — always review them before purchasing. Surge handles permitting, registration, and Hotel Occupancy Tax compliance for every property we manage.
