Energize Partnership

At Hunt Realty Investments,

We use our resources to make a difference in the lives of the people we touch and the communities we engage.

For over 45 years, Hunt Realty has been pursuing investments across Dallas and North Texas, helping build and sustain the community we call home.

We believe in creating value for the long term because honoring the deal means more to us than just the agreement. Living up to the commitments we make to each other, to our customers and partners, and to our communities is the foundation of our company and what drives our work.

In the earliest days at Hunt, we learned from the ground up, rising with the boom of the American oil and gas industry. As opportunities presented themselves, we diversified into real estate and venture capital markets. Today, Hunt Realty Investments is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hunt Consolidated, Inc. dedicated to managing its comprehensive real estate activities. Hunt Consolidated is the flagship entity of the entire Ray L. Hunt family of companies, a privately-owned group of entities based in Dallas, Texas., Inc. Hunt companies also include oil and gas exploration and production, refining, LNG, power, real estate, investments,
ranching and infrastructure.
