Why Arlington Land Notes Are Competitive
Arlington (central Tarrant County) benefits from DFW spillover:
- Entertainment/sports tourism (Cowboys, Rangers, Six Flags).
- General Motors plant and industrial growth.
- Suburban family appeal with excellent schools.
- Easy access via I-20, I-30, and HWY 360.
Result: Strong buyer demand → attractive pricing (often lower discounts than rural Texas).
