About the publication
On Estates of San Antonio's editorial mission and the standards by which it operates.
Estates of San Antonio is an editorial publication devoted to the neighborhoods, architecture, and quiet conventions of luxury residential life in San Antonio. It exists for the buyer or longtime resident who wants to understand the city's most established addresses — not as inventory to be sold, but as places to be understood.
San Antonio is the seventh-largest city in the United States. It is also, by some accounting, the least covered. The national publications dispatch their architecture writers to Marfa, their food writers to Austin, their society writers to Dallas and Houston. San Antonio — older than each of those cities, more idiosyncratic than any of them, and home to some of Texas's most enduring residential traditions — is rarely treated with the same attention.
The publication is published online as an ongoing encyclopedic reference to the city's most established residential neighborhoods. Coverage is unsponsored. Properties featured editorially are featured because they are worth featuring, not because anyone paid to have them included.
The publication's editorial standards are explicit. Coverage is unsponsored. No neighborhood, property, architect, or business is featured in articles in exchange for payment, referrals, or any other consideration. Properties and architects are featured in articles because they are worth featuring — and nothing more.
The publication also features a small selection of San Antonio businesses and services in the right margin of articles. These features are chosen by the editors, not sold. They appear because the publication considers them worth knowing about.
Estates of San Antonio is published by Texas Pro Group LLC, San Antonio, Texas.
