Walton Global Completes Phase 2 of Land Sale to D.R. Horton in Texas

Walton Global, a real estate investment and land asset management company, announced the sale of the remaining 30 acres of residential development within the Anderson master-planned community in Hays County, Texas. This marks the second phase of Walton’s sale to D.R. Horton, following the 47-acre Phase 1 closing that took place in April 2022.
The residential subdivision, known as Marigold, is located at the intersection of State Highways 21 and 130 and offers direct connectivity to the corridor between Austin and San Antonio. Walton reported that, with continued population growth and infrastructure investment in the area, the Anderson master-planned community is positioned to support the surging demand for attainable single-family housing in one of the fastest-growing regions in Texas.
“This transaction underscores our commitment to identifying and delivering real estate solutions in markets where growth and opportunity intersect,” said Rob Nixon, senior vice president of real estate at Walton Global. “We’re proud to work alongside D.R. Horton to help address the housing needs to Hays County and support the broader development in the region.”
According to Walton, key highlights of the Anderson master-planned community include:
- Strategic location: Situated near rapidly growing cities such as Kyle, Buda, and New Braunfels, the property provides easy access to regional employment hubs.
- Lifestyle amenities: The community features multiple playgrounds, a fenced dog park, a splash pad, multiple green spaces, and a well-managed homeowner’s association.
- Proximity to education: The property falls within the Hays Consolidated Independent School District, with access to the directly adjacent Uhland Elementary School.
“Anderson provides the kind of community that today’s families are seeking – well-located, thoughtfully designed, and connected to great schools and infrastructure,” said Scott Wilburn, division president for D.R. Horton’s Austin division. “We are excited to work with Walton Global to bring this vision to life and support the continued development of the Uhland area.”
This sale follows closely on Walton’s recent acquisition of a 28-acre residential property in North Carolina, along with several other transactions. In May, the firm launched its latest residential DST offering in Kent County, Del. It also recently sold more than 1,500 acres in Texas for data center development, along with 80 acres near Dallas for residential housing.
