About David Carpenter
David Carpenter grew up in Central Texas as a 5th generation Texan. His career encompassed the electronics industry with Texas Instruments and Mil-Rep Associates as Global Accounts Manager for Austin and San Antonio. He then opened Strategic OEM Sales, Inc., focusing solely on Dell Computer.
He married Mabel in 1981. They have two children, Marissa and Kirk. Kirk was a big factor in David buying his first ranch. He found that hunting and ranching was a great way to build a strong family bond. There is an ethic of hard work and honesty that just seems to come with land ownership.
Ten years ago, David bought his first ranch where he honed his skills for doing major improvements and added value to his property giving rise to Ranch Enhancement Ventures which became a full time endeavor. Since then, seven additional ranches between 110 and 866 acres were purchased in the Central Texas area, all of which gave David a unique perspective to offer to his clients, both from the buying and selling side of the transaction. He also possesses a unique understanding of land values and the potential value of highly improved properties. David and Mabel currently live in Horseshoe Bay.
David has evolved into the in-house developer and no longer brokers Real Estate. His team does ranch acquisition, development and marketing for himself and investors. Please contact one of his Real Estate team to find that perfect property for development or recreation.
