FAQ:
Where are these tracts Located?
How big are the tracts?
We decided to chose 11 acre tracts so landowners can have an ag exemption on on the land if they chose to, significantly reducing the property tax and qualifying the landowner for USDA/FSA programs. In Texas, a minimum of 10 acres is required for an ag exemption. However, when a house/barndo is built, one acre is partitioned by the County Appraiser for improvements. In this case, if a landowner builds a house, the county will value one acre as residential, but the rest of the land could be able to qualify for a special ag-use exemption if the new owner abides by the county’s ag exempt standards.

What’s the water like?
New water wells in this area can cost anywhere from $8,000-$13,000 depending on the servicer, size, etc.
Each property will need to drill a private well to source their own water as public water lines are not available here.
What utilities are there?
Hughesnet and Starlinkoffer reliable satellite internet in this area with download speeds from 53-121mbps and upload speeds from 11-22 mbps.
All residential homes will be required to install their own septic system and water well.
There are no natural gas lines here, so the residential builds will either need to be all electric or have propane delivered.
Are there animal restrictions?

What’s the process to buy one?
The process isn’t unlike any other real estate transaction. When you have had all your questions answered and are ready to proceed, we’ll draw up a contract to be signed by all parties. It will then be submitted to a title company, along with a 1% earnest money deposit (which credits the down payment or the cash sale). Generally the period from signed contract to closing and possession is 30 days or less.
Do you have a survey?
Yes each tract is surveyed. Feel free to request a copy of it!
Do any tracts have flood lands?
Do I have to fence my tract?
Are these tracts in an HOA?
Do I have to use your financing?
Can I subdivide my tract after purchase?
Can I shoot firearms here?

Can I ride ATVs/UTVS/Dirtbikes?
Can I have solar panels on the house or on my tract?
How much are property taxes?
Feel free to call Hockley County Central Appraisal District and ask them which activities could qualify 10 acres for ag exemption and how to navigate this process.
