Hi everyone, I’m based in Austin and wanted to share a strategy we’ve been executing locally that’s worked well for us.

We focus on acquiring underutilized acreage in ETJ corridors around Austin and converting it into income-producing contractor and industrial yard properties.

The basic idea is:
- acquire residential or mixed-use acreage in high-growth corridors
- improve the property with gravel, fencing, utilities, and security
- lease space to contractors, trucking companies, mechanics, and service businesses

Demand for yard space around Austin has been very strong, especially with the amount of construction and logistics growth happening in the region.

One of our projects east of Austin involved acquiring acreage with existing structures and converting it into a multi-tenant contractor yard with warehouse, storage, and parking tenants.

We’re now working on expanding this strategy into additional properties around the Austin area.

Always happy to connect with other investors or operators interested in this niche.
