Named after a Texan hero

Maverick is the name of this small residential community in northwestern San Antonio. While this community may be named for the Texan hero Samuel Maverick and not for the money-minded protagonist of the hit Western show “Maverick,” homebuyers may also find themselves with good deals on their mind when looking to move into this up-and-coming neighborhood.

Comfortable homes with relaxed price points

Maverick is named for the local Samuel A. Maverick Elementary School, in turn named for a signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence whose refusal to brand his cattle led to the term “maverick” coming to mean “independent-minded.” This spirit of uniquity is embraced by this community, which not only offers its own slew of local amenities, but also features competitive home prices well below the city’s average home value. Realtor Claudia Fortunatti of White Line Realty says, “This neighborhood offers great opportunities for owning your home at a very affordable price.” Maverick’s homes tend to sell for between $75,000 and $240,000, reflecting the variety in their sizes and styles. Ranch-style homes built in the 1950s and condos built in the 1960s offer comfortable living options for equally relaxed price points. Of additional convenience is the abundance of public transport options and local amenities. Fortunatti says, “You don’t have much need of a car, as you have great Via Trans Lines one block down the street. In addition, Maverick is located near major commercial shops, gyms, and restaurants, and the Woodlawn Theater and Woodlawn Lake make for a fun day.”
