Forestar develops communities into a place to call home.
Forestar is a residential lot development company, focused on delivering desirable communities for homebuilders in both established locations and long-term growth markets. We are primarily focused on developing single-family residential communities for entry-level, first- time and first- time move-up homebuyers, the largest segments of the new home market.
We conduct a wide-range of project planning and management activities to enable homebuilders to concentrate their resources and efforts on building homes. This commitment is best reflected in our focus to deliver communities on time, every time.
The company's strategic relationship with D.R. Horton, the nation's number one homebuilder, complements Forestar’s vision of creating neighborhoods that enhance the lives of community residents.
