Not a lot...a TON. The Hill Country has become wildly popular, and those good folks up there know it, and they're laughing all the way to the bank. Secondly, if you're looking for five acre tracts, they're likely to be found in gated subdivisions with pretty tight restrictions, or in backwoods areas with NO restrictions (mobile homes and junk cars). The likelihood of finding a friendly farmer who will lop off a corner of his pasture to sell you is slim to none. Third, Google real estate agents in the following areas: Boerne, Comfort, Bandera, Fredericksburg (a TON of money), Blanco and Kerrville. These areas are in the "hilly-est" parts of the Hill Country. Century 21 real estate agents in these areas tend to be pretty reliable. You can also check out Trulia.com and enter any of these town names. There are, of course, lots of other towns in the Hill Country, but these seem to be the most popular.
