First Home Purchase

Hi everyone, My family and I are looking to purchase our first home in San Antonio and have seen a couple of nice properties in the Castle hills area. I don't know much about that part of town and would like some more information if possible from others (taxes, location, if it'll be marketable as a rented property, Etc) If we do purchase a home out there Id like to use a buy and hold strategy to rent it out as we intend to move in 3-4 year increments to build our portfolio. I just don't want to be "stuck" with a home in a location that may not attract renters down the road at a later point in time. Thanks in advance for the help BP

Castle Hills is a great area!  One of the best locations in San Antonio, but the schools aren't great.
