Rooted in Expertise.

Rooted Development is involved in the development of real estate projects throughout Texas, focusing on the greater Houston area.  We apply our 40+ years of experience in developing single-family residential communities, including some of Houston’s most successful master planned communities.  We utilize our varied experience in real estate, engineering, and urban planning to each project to insure successful results.  We pride ourselves on our relationships with homebuilders, engineering, environmental and geotechnical consultants, attorneys, and landowners to build a well-respected reputation as premier developers.

Our services vary to meet the needs of our clients’ needs, but also the project.  These services include land acquisition, land entitlement (including MUD creation and/or annexation, city permitting and planning coordination), land management and master planning, project management and fee development. Rooted Development is poised to assist landowners, investors, and builders in identifying and acquiring land, feasibility analysis and best use, due diligence management, project coordination and development of infrastructure and finished lots, budget and schedule management and MUD reimbursement coordination.

Rooted in Teamwork

We have curated a uniquely qualified team of talented individuals who have expert knowledge and a great vision for innovative projects of all sizes and complexity. What really makes us stand out though, is our passion and integrity that makes collaboration fun and easy.
