Why Lamar County

Power infrastructure that makes Lamar County land worth a look.

We are actively working in Lamar County and continue to look at tracts near Paris. The county combines low land cost with a real transmission corridor.

345 kV lines from the Red River Valley cross the county toward the DFW metro. Major corridors through the county include US-82, US-271 and SH-24. Utilities active in the county include Oncor and Lamar Electric Cooperative.

We look for 40 to 700 acre tracts outside floodplain, ideally with road frontage, within roughly five miles of a substation that has headroom. Large ranch tracts on the west side of the metro (Wise, Parker, Hood, Johnson, Jack counties), the Red River counties (Wilbarger, Wichita, Grayson), and the east side along I-20 and I-30 (Kaufman, Van Zandt, Hunt, Lamar) are all active for us.

Does your Lamar County land qualify?

You do not need to know the answer. We will tell you.

Most landowners have no way to know whether their property has real value to a data center developer, because that depends on grid capacity most people never look at. These are the signals that usually mean it is worth a conversation.

  • Your land is within a mile or two of a substation, switching station, or a 69 kV, 138 kV or 345 kV transmission line, even if you are not sure of the exact voltage.
  • You have been contacted before by a utility, a solar or wind developer, or another company about an easement or right-of-way on or near your property.
  • The parcel is 20 acres or larger. We also buy smaller parcels that sit inside a larger assemblage.
  • You are an heir, executor, or one of several co-owners of inherited or family land and want a direct buyer rather than a drawn-out listing.
  • You are a rancher or farmer open to selling all or part of a larger tract if the price and terms make sense.
  • Your land is currently listed and has not moved, or has been off-market and never tested with this type of buyer.

Frequently asked

Questions from Lamar County landowners

Do you buy land in Lamar County?

Yes. We are actively working in Lamar County and continue to look at tracts near Paris. The county combines low land cost with a real transmission corridor. Tracts near Paris, Reno, Blossom, Deport and Roxton that sit near high-voltage lines or a substation are what we screen first.

Who owns the transmission lines in Lamar County?

Utilities active in Lamar County include Oncor and Lamar Electric Cooperative. You do not need to know which one crosses your land; we identify the line owner and voltage from public records.

How much is land near a substation worth in Lamar County?

It depends almost entirely on whether the nearby substation can accept new load, and on acreage, floodplain, water and access. We will screen your tract for free and tell you what we see before we make an offer.

How do I sell land near a power line or substation in Texas?

Start by telling us where the land is and what you know about nearby transmission infrastructure. You do not need to know the voltage or ownership. We do that research ourselves using ERCOT, utility and county records, then tell you honestly whether it is a fit and what it might be worth.

Do I need a realtor to sell my land to a data center developer?

No. We buy directly from landowners and brokers alike. If you already have a broker, we are glad to work with them. If you do not, you do not need to hire one to talk to us.

What makes land valuable for a data center site?

Proximity to a substation or transmission line is the headline, but the real driver is whether that substation has spare capacity to accept new load. Most nearby substations in Texas do not. Parcel size, shape, flood zone, water access and zoning also matter. We screen for all of it before making an offer.

How fast can you close?

Once we have confirmed the site fits, terms are usually a short paid option period of 60 to 180 days to finish utility and title diligence, followed by a cash closing. We move as fast as the utility and title work allow.

Tell us about your land

Five minutes. Free screen. An honest answer within the week.

Start with the property address. If the land has no street address, the nearest road and cross street, a county appraisal district parcel number, or GPS coordinates all work just as well. We will identify the substation, check capacity and title from public records, and tell you whether it fits.
