Walton Global Strengthens Land Portfolio with Acquisitions Across Key Southern Growth Regions

Closings completed in April and May across Southeast and Gulf Coast markets through the company’s Builder Land Finance Program

Walton Global, a leading real estate investment, land banking and land asset management company, announces the addition of eight new land parcels to its portfolio in April and May of 2026. These transactions, completed through Walton’s Finished Lot Program within its larger Builder Land Finance platform, expanded the company’s footprint in high-growth residential markets throughout Texas, Florida, and North Carolina.

Walton’s acquisition strategy focuses on markets where housing demand continues to outpace supply, and where builders need the ability to move quickly and flexibly. Its Finished Lot Program, which is a core component of the Builder Land Finance platform, acquires and delivers developed lots directly to homebuilders, which reduces upfront capital requirements and leads to accelerated housing delivery where its most needed.

“America’s top homebuilders need to move fast in today’s dynamic market, and our goal is to ensure land isn’t what slows them down,” said Paul Bae, SVP of Finance at Walton Global. “Our Builder Land Finance model was built for this exact purpose, acquiring and preparing developed lots so builders can move rapidly without the upfront risk that can cause projects to stall.”
