D.R. Horton completed the purchase of 92 fully developed lots in the Indian Springs master‑planned community in Texas, a transaction that closed on March 4, 2026 and was announced the following day. The 138‑acre, 600‑lot development sits off FM 2100 in the Greater Houston area and represents a sizable addition to the builder’s controlled land inventory.
Indian Springs is a master‑planned community that offers affordable family living, a segment that aligns closely with D.R. Horton's focus on entry‑level and first‑time homebuyers. By acquiring finished lots rather than raw land, the company keeps its lot base asset‑light, reducing capital outlay and risk while still securing inventory for new home construction.
The acquisition follows a similar transaction in August 2025, when D.R. Horton purchased 115 lots from Windy Hill Development for Lennar Homes. These moves illustrate the builder’s ongoing strategy to acquire finished lots in high‑demand Sun Belt markets, particularly the rapidly growing Greater Houston region.
Strategically, the purchase strengthens D.R. Horton's position in a key growth area and supports its broader land acquisition plan. The company’s emphasis on finished lots allows it to respond quickly to market demand, maintain tighter control over construction timelines, and preserve liquidity for future development projects.
Overall, the transaction underscores D.R. Horton's commitment to expanding its footprint in the Sun Belt while maintaining a lean, asset‑light lot portfolio that supports its long‑term growth objectives.
