Why You Should Attend this DFW MPC CRE Event

What We’ll Cover:

  • DFW Master Planned Community Landscape: Regional trends in lot absorption, permitting cycles, and new home construction across multiple MPCs in North Texas.
  • Capital, Partnerships & Development Strategy: How developers and investors are collaborating to finance large-scale communities amid rising costs, complex infrastructure demands, and evolving market conditions.
  • Infrastructure, Resiliency & Resource Planning: Examining how road networks, utility capacity, water/sewer systems, and climate adaptation are shaping where and how MPCs are delivered.
  • Placemaking & Lifestyle Design: How amenity packages, open space programming, walkability, and mixed-use nodes distinguish top MPCs in DFW.
  • Integrating Urban Elements in MPCs: Approaches to embedding urban experience (retail cores, transit-oriented planning, higher density nodes) into traditionally suburban developments.
  • Development Challenges & Solutions: Addressing entitlement timelines, utility constraints, labor/material inflation, and risk mitigation strategies that developers are using today.
