We buy land near substations and transmission lines across South & Central Texas directly from landowners, heirs and brokers. Free screen, honest answer within the week, cash close.
The Austin–San Antonio corridor and the counties around it are absorbing data center demand that the metros themselves can no longer site. Williamson, Milam, Bell and the counties along I-35, SH-130, US-79 and US-290 have seen some of the largest single land transactions in Texas in the last three years. Further south, the Eagle Ford counties combine industrial posture with existing high-voltage infrastructure built for oil and gas.
Transmission is a mix of Oncor, CPS Energy, AEP Texas Central and the LCRA TSC system, with Pedernales EC, Bluebonnet EC and other cooperatives serving rural distribution. Capacity is tight near Austin and San Antonio and improves quickly as you move into the surrounding counties, which is where we concentrate.
We look for 50 to 700 acre tracts along the SH-130, US-79 and I-35 corridors and around existing industrial nodes such as Taylor, Rockdale, Temple and Seguin. Water and county posture matter as much as the power here.
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.
Location, acreage, and anything you know about power lines or prior utility contact. Five minutes by email.
We check grid capacity, title, floodplain and zoning ourselves using public records. If it does not fit, we tell you within the week and say why.
No listing, no showings, no marketing period. Terms are usually a short paid option period followed by a cash closing.
We handle title. Closing costs are negotiated up front. You are not carrying diligence risk; we are.
We look at any tract in the ERCOT South zone that sits near high-voltage transmission or a substation.

Capacity is tight near Austin and San Antonio and improves quickly as you move into the surrounding counties, which is where we concentrate. You do not need to know which one serves your tract. Tell us where it is and we will identify the transmission owner from public records.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Yes. We regularly work with heirship property, estates in probate and land held across several family members. Tell us the situation up front and we will structure around it.
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.
