MARANA, Ariz. (January 9, 2026) – Forestar (USA) Real Estate Group, Inc. (Matt Seidel, Vice President, RE Investments and Development-Tucson) has acquired Villages II, III, VI, and VII of Linda Vista Village, comprising 118.76 acres in northwest Tucson. The transaction, which closed on December 31, 2025, encompasses multiple development phases totaling approximately 310 lots in one of Marana's most active growth corridors. The acquisition significantly expands Forestar's presence to northwest Tucson, adding to the company's growing portfolio across all geographic areas of Pima County.
Forestar purchased the property from AMH Linda Vista Development TRS, LLC for $10,500,000 in an all-cash transaction. The acquisition is located east of the Twin Peaks Road and Interstate 10 interchange, directly off Linda Vista Boulevard and Camino Benicardo, positioning Forestar in the heart of East Marana's expanding residential market. The property is next door to the Marana Center development, anchored by the Tucson Premium Outlets (365,000 SF with 70+ stores), supported by two hotels, Hampton Inn & Suites and SpringHill Suites by Marriott, and the Northwest Emergency Center, a 24-hour medical facility. Future phases of Marana Center include a TMC hospital site, an auto mall, a gas station/convenience store, and additional retail and entertainment venues.
The seller, AMH Linda Vista Development TRS, LLC, originally acquired the land in 2021. The company has strategically divested portions of the development to capitalize on strong demand for P/E (platted and engineered) lots. This transaction represents the latest in a series of significant lot sales AMH has executed in 2024-2025.
Forestar (USA) Real Estate Group, Inc. is a leading residential lot development company focused on acquiring and developing raw land into finished lots for homebuilders. The company operates in multiple high-growth markets across the United States and has established a significant market share in Arizona's residential development sector. Forestar specializes in delivering turnkey finished lots, allowing homebuilders to focus on construction and sales rather than land-development complexities.
Will White and John Carroll of Land Advisors Organization handled the transaction and played a pivotal role in AMH’s 2025 divestment of lots.
"Quietly, Forestar continues to make excellent investments throughout Tucson and is now positioned in all geographic areas of Pima County," White noted. "Their systematic approach to securing, developing, and delivering “fully finished” lot inventory demonstrates exactly what's needed as we move into a new period in Tucson. These lots will be in high demand once ready for market.”
This positions Forestar to capitalize on what White describes as a convergence of market catalysts: reload urgency among builders, stronger selling seasons expected in 2026, and the slingshot effect from current inventory constraints.
