Green Brick Partners’ Communities Earn Top Rankings in Regional and National Lists

Key Terms

master-planned communities technical

A master-planned community is a large residential development designed and built from a single blueprint that includes homes, roads, parks, schools, shops and utilities, often delivered in phases and managed by a homeowners association. For investors, it matters because these projects offer more predictable long-term income and property-value stability—like buying into a whole neighborhood designed to work together—while also carrying development, approval and infrastructure risks that affect returns.
