 TOP 5 TRENDS

Top 5 Trends in Texas Land Development (2025 Edition)

May 28, 20251 min read

Texas is booming—and the land market is moving fast. Whether you're a landowner considering selling or a developer eyeing your next project, staying ahead of the trends is key. Here are five developments shaping the landscape in 2025:

1. Suburban Expansion Is Outpacing Urban Growth

As cities like Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio grow, nearby rural and semi-rural areas are being transformed into vibrant suburban communities.

2. Infrastructure Investment Is Unlocking New Markets

Texas is investing billions into roads, utilities, and broadband. Areas once considered “too remote” are now development-ready.

3. Zoning Flexibility Is Opening New Doors

Counties and municipalities are increasingly open to rezoning land for mixed-use, multifamily, and commercial development—especially when it aligns with economic growth plans.

4. Sustainability and Water Access Matter More Than Ever

From drought-conscious landscaping to groundwater rights, environmental considerations are now central to land development strategy.

5. Investors Are Eyeing Transitional Land

Savvy buyers are targeting land just outside city limits—where prices are still reasonable, but growth is on the horizon.

Key Takeaway:
The future of Texas land is bright—but timing, location, and local insight are everything. At Longhorn Land Holdings, we help clients navigate these trends with confidence.
