As with every other industry, in 2020 residential real estate has been tested by the COVID pandemic. From securing the raw land to marketing the property, master-planned community developers have had to recalibrate almost every aspect of their business. 

If a homebuyer can live anywhere, where will they most likely choose? This is more than a rhetorical question.  

San Antonio Business Journal's annual Building San Antonio Awards recognized SouthStar's president, Thad Rutherford as Dealmaker of the Year for 2020. The award recognizes Rutherford's legacy of acquisition and complex approvals to deliver larger scale masterplans in and around San Antonio. 

The list of the “Top 50 Master Planned communities in the Unites States” for 2019 is out, and SouthStar Communities’ WoodCreek in Dallas has made its first—but certainly not its last—appearance. This popular community, located in the fast-growing city of Fate, just up the highway from downtown Dallas, ranks at No. 41 after a year of exceptionally strong sales under the SouthStar Communities umbrella. It was the only community in the Dallas area to make the prestigious list, which is compiled every year by John Burns Real Estate Consulting.

Southstar Communities specializes in planned communities in exceptional locations. We offer waterfront property, homes on golf courses, and rural properties that are situated on fabulous land. Southstar Communities currently has plans available in thirteen communities. Our properties are on lakes, islands, in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, and all over the Southeast.

SAN ANTONIO – A new development hopes to breathe new life into the surrounding area of Texas A&M-San Antonio.

SouthStar Communities, a development company, is in charge of the project named VIDA, which will include space for housing, offices, restaurants and retail.

“It will have housing options from multi-family, single-family, detached homes, townhomes, duplexes,” said Thad Rutherford, president of SouthStar Communities.
