OAK FOREST REALTY>OUR SERVICES>DEVELOPMENT

Oak Forest Development brings decades of combined experience to residential and commercial projects across Texas. With over $35 million in completed developments, our team has proven expertise in infill housing, student housing, mixed-use developments, and flex-space opportunities.

Our development approach combines disciplined site selection, data-driven feasibility analysis, and efficient execution. We've successfully delivered projects ranging from 34-unit luxury condos to 75-unit student housing communities, consistently achieving strong returns while managing risk through strategic financing and partnership structures.

What We Do

Site Selection & Feasibility

Data-driven site evaluation across Austin and Texas markets. We analyze comps, zoning, permitting timelines, and submarket demand before committing capital — underwriting to today's numbers, not tomorrow's projections.

General Contracting

In-house construction management from foundation to finish. Our team coordinates trades, manages timelines, and maintains quality standards across every phase — keeping projects on budget and on schedule.

Architectural Design

Every project starts with the architect, not the budget. We design around how people actually live and buy — layout, light, flow, and privacy over surface-level finishes. That's what sells in 30 days instead of sitting for six months.

Permitting & Entitlements

We navigate Austin's permitting landscape with built-in contingency timelines. From initial applications through inspections and certificates of occupancy, we manage the process so construction stays on track.

Infill Residential

Our core focus: high-quality homes in established inner-loop neighborhoods where lot scarcity limits new supply. When population grows faster than housing stock, well-located new construction commands a premium.

Partnership Structures

Flexible co-development and investment structures for landowners, investors, and development partners. Conservative underwriting with contingency budgets built in from day one and 12-14 month target timelines.
