The Surge Take: Boerne

Boerne scores 81.7/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #21 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 $34,425/year — about 6% below the San Antonio metro average, so unit selection and design matter more than usual.

The revenue profile is a $237 average daily rate at 48% 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.

Regulation-wise, Boerne falls under City of Boerne, which allows short-term rentals with compliance requirements — Permit required in city limits AND ETJ; 200-ft spacing between STRs in residential zones. Registration-style regimes are manageable and tend to thin out casual competition, which can favor professional operators.

Boerne STR Regulations

Regulated

Jurisdiction: City of Boerne · Last verified 2026-08-12

Permit required in city limits AND ETJ; 200-ft spacing between STRs in residential zones

Boerne requires every STR in its city limits and extraterritorial jurisdiction to register and obtain a permit. In residentially zoned areas, an STR cannot operate within 200 feet of another STR on the same blockface (this includes residential parcels in the Historic, Downtown, and River Road overlays); commercial parcels within those overlays have no spacing rule, and STRs are not permitted in commercial zones outside them. Owners must carry $500K/$1M liability insurance, meet occupancy (2/bedroom + 2) and parking (1 space/bedroom) standards, and no events are allowed. A Zoning Board of Adjustment special exception is available for non-conforming proposals.

What operators need to know
  • STR permit/registration required in city limits and ETJ (via city STR portal)
  • 200-ft spacing from other STRs on the same blockface in residential zones
  • STRs not permitted in commercial zones outside the Historic/Downtown/River Road overlays
  • Insurance: $500K per occurrence / $1M aggregate
  • Occupancy: 2 per bedroom + 2; parking: 1 space per bedroom
  • No events at STRs
  • ZBA special exception path for non-conforming applications
  • City HOT via Boerne STR portal
Hotel Occupancy Tax
7% city + 6% state = 13% combined

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