What Kirby homeowners should know
Kirby is a small city in eastern Bexar County, about 8 miles northeast of downtown San Antonio and just south of Converse. It started as a stop on the Galveston, Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway in 1877, and stayed a tiny farming settlement for decades, with a population of only around 18 as late as 1920. Growth arrived after World War II as families moved to the area near Randolph AFB and farmland gave way to houses and roads; the city incorporated in the mid-1950s, and its population jumped from 680 in 1960 to over 3,200 by 1970. Kirby has grown slowly since then and counted about 8,100 residents in the 2020 census. Most homes here date from that 1950s-1970s suburban buildout, so the housing stock skews older and more modest than in San Antonio’s newer suburbs, and it’s a small enough market that sale prices can swing noticeably from month to month based on which few homes happen to sell.

Why Kirby owners sell as-is
Older 1950s-1970s housing stock
Kirby’s housing was mostly built during its postwar boom in the 1950s and 60s, which means a large share of the city’s homes are now 50 to 70 years old. Original roofs, plumbing, wiring and foundations in homes from that era commonly need attention, and updates like these can be a bigger project than a newer home requires.
Small, thin housing market
Kirby is a small city, and only a handful of homes change hands here in a typical month. That means the median sale price can jump around a lot from one reporting period to the next simply because of which few houses sold, not necessarily because of a big shift in what homes are actually worth.
Rising appraisals and property taxes
Like the rest of Bexar County, Kirby has seen home values and property tax bills rise over the past several years. The Bexar Central Appraisal District sets values each spring, and owners can protest by May 15 or 30 days after the notice arrives, whichever is later. For owners of older, paid-off homes on a fixed income, that can make holding onto the house harder each year.

Bexar County
Kirby is entirely in Bexar County. Probate cases go to Bexar County Probate Court No. 1, No. 2 or No. 3, with filings through the Bexar County Clerk. Mortgage foreclosures are usually non-judicial trustee sales held the first Tuesday of the month on the west side of the Bexar County Courthouse, 100 Dolorosa Street, San Antonio, or as otherwise designated by the Commissioners Court; unpaid property taxes can lead to a tax suit and sheriff’s sale.

Selling a house for cash in Kirby
My Kirby house is older and needs a lot of work. Can I still sell it as-is?
Yes. A lot of homes in Kirby date back to the 1950s and 60s and need a new roof, updated plumbing or foundation repair by now. A cash buyer looks at the home as it sits and prices in the cost of repairs, so you don’t have to spend your own money or time fixing it up before selling.
Why do home prices in Kirby seem to jump around so much?
Kirby is a small city with only a few home sales in a typical month, so the reported median price can move a lot based on which particular houses sold, not necessarily because the overall market shifted. It’s worth getting a specific look at your property rather than relying only on the citywide average.
I inherited a house in Kirby. Can I sell it before probate wraps up?
You need legal authority to sign the deed, which typically comes from being named independent executor or administrator by the court handling the estate, or from a muniment of title or court order establishing the heirs. A title company will want to see that documentation before closing. Once you have it, you can sell the house as-is while the rest of the estate is still being settled.
Do I pay any fees or closing costs when I sell to BAM in Kirby?
No. There are no commissions or fees, and we pay all of the normal seller closing costs. The offer we make is the amount you walk away with, minus only what you owe, like a mortgage payoff or back taxes.
