20-Acre Texas–Louisiana Land Deal

WASKOM, Texas (Nov. 18, 2025 )— Younger Partners Executive Vice President Ben McCutchin brokered the sale of the 20 acres fronting I-20 in Waskom on the north side of I-20 at the state line of Texas and Louisiana. Another 134 acres are still for sale at the location, just 25 miles west of Shreveport.

McCutchin represented the seller, Johnson Investments, in a direct deal with the buyer, JF3 Properties LLC, Inc. Plans for the property call for a future construction equipment yard for the existing business in the next six months.

“This is a deal where the signage made the difference,” McCutchin said. “The buyer was looking for acreage for development and business implementation in the power distribution industry, and this site fit the requirements. This transaction was successful because of the cooperation from the Texas Department of Transportation and the City of Waskom working together to help the buyer receive permission to include an entrance across the flood plain on the southwest end of the property.”

The property had been in the Johnson family for more than 50 years, McCutchin said.

Throughout 2025, McCutchin has brokered a handful of deals totaling almost 400 acres across the state, including the sale of about 95 acres in Pilot Point to Texas grocer H-E-B. He also brokered a 260+-acre sale in Pilot Point for a future home development.
