Esperanza’s developer, The Lookout Group was founded over 30 years ago by visionary friends David Gibbs and Bill Hinckley. They had the bold idea to bring executive housing to the uncharted territory of Central Texas. With limited resources, they bootstrapped their dream and got their hands dirty, often personally surveying new properties on horseback in the early years.
Creativity and quality drove their day-to-day approach – each hand-selected project was tackled with the same enthusiasm as their first. To them, no community was just another community, no street was just another street.
The Lookout Group’s hands-on artistry has blossomed into award-winning communities and an acclaimed reputation throughout Texas. After three decades the leadership remains focused on happy homeowners, artisan details, top-notch builder partnerships, unrivaled craftsmanship, premier locations offering exemplary schools, and thriving commercial centers.
While no longer on horseback, the entire team at The Lookout Group channels the founders’ entrepreneurial spirit as the firm and portfolio continue to evolve. We invite you to discover the innovative spirit and thoughtful planning behind each of our thriving residential and commercial properties.
"If I had to give one reason for someone to move to Esperanza, it would be that you've never seen a place like this. Our goal as a master-planned community is to be artful, different and sustainable."
