Lantana Homes For Sale

Lantana is a master planned community unlike anything else you'll find in North Texas. Having been named Dallas-Fort Worth’s “Community of the Year” four times by the Dallas Builders Association, it’s no coincidence why homes for sale in Lantana continue to raise the bar for other new home communities being planned all throughout the DFW region.

Encompassing over 1,700 total acres, Lantana is about much more than residential real estate, however. Inside the community’s expansive boundaries are 300 acres of open park spaces, miles of hiking and biking trails, and a centrally-located community center with a state-of-the-art fitness center, a water park, and an unrivaled tennis complex with 4 courts and a stadium court. Along with that, there’s also the…

Trinity Green Dallas

Urban neighborhoods are becoming more and more prevalent around the DFW area, and this hot new development trend doesn’t appear to be going anywhere anytime soon. Last week, Stonelake Capital Partners announced plans for yet another urban residential district in DFW, this time in West Dallas.

Being called Trinity Green, Stonelake has reportedly closed on a 25-acre industrial site over at 1000 Singleton Boulevard (at the intersection of Singleton and Sylvan), which is where the new Trinity Green community will be developed. Included in the project will be a blend of both for-sale and for-rent residences, of which most will be built around a 1-acre green and park space.

According to those behind the project, Trinity Green’s location will provide eventual…

Although a normal, or “balanced”, real estate market typically has about a six-month supply of inventory available, the red hot DFW real estate market has resulted in a pretty substantial housing shortage in many Dallas-area neighborhoods, with some parts of the city having less than a two-month supply of homes available to purchase.

It’s no secret that market conditions fluctuate, and it’s not all the uncommon for inventory to drop every now and then. But with major companies expanding or moving to North Texas like GM, State Farm, Toyota, and Liberty Mutual Insurance, job growth is on the rise with fewer places for incoming residents to live.

According to some statistics, Dallas-area neighborhoods and cities with the lowest inventory include The Colony,…

Jordan Spieth House in Preston Hollow

Heading into the final round of The Masters, 21-year old phenom Jordan Spieth has a commanding lead over the rest of the field, but the golf course isn’t the only place where he’s dominating right now. Late last month, reports surfaced that Spieth bought a stunning Preston Hollow mansion, and after one quick glance at his elegant new pad, it appears the PGA’s fastest rising star is also making huge strides in the DFW real estate world as well.  

Much like his golf game, the 2008-built estate he now calls home is also quite flawless. A French-style masterpiece that features five bedrooms, a gourmet chef’s kitchen, and a backyard most people only dream about, this particular home is one of the more exquisite properties you'll find in the entire…
