Hunter Ferrell Properties
With its considerable real estate experience, Sowell & Co. quickly recognized the opportunity in the building materials industry presented by the creation of Hunter Ferrell Properties. This specialized real estate company has the expertise to locate and develop properties with marketable sand and gravel reserves, which are vital to the construction industry. To move product most efficiently and to maximize return, Hunter Ferrell concentrates only on those properties within close range of the most active construction areas, and aggressively markets its products through various sales channels. After the sand and gravel reserves are harvested, another profitable opportunity affords itself. The properties are then reclaimed and made available for sale or development. Raw land can hold valuable resources for building projects. Here, sand and gravel are harvested from one of the company’s sites in Denton County, Texas, for sale to a construction company. |
