From Waterloo to the Alamo
Inside the $400 Million Playbook: Jack Meredith Reveals How Masonwood Evaluates Land, Risk and Return
🔥 New Episode Alert - From Waterloo to the Alamo is back with a conversation that every builder, developer, investor, and future land-shaping visionary needs to hear.
This week, host Traci Turnquist sits down with Jack Meredith, Vice President of Masonwood Development, whose rise from Financial Analyst to CFO to Vice President offers a rare inside look at how major land development decisions get made in Austin and beyond.
Jack opens the curtain on his journey at Masonwood, the pivotal decisions that shaped his leadership trajectory, and how early field experience in civil construction still influences the financial strategy behind more than $400 million in development across Texas.
From underwriting and acquisitions to long-term community visioning, Jack breaks down the art and science of evaluating land in one of the fastest growing markets in the country. Builders and developers will love his insights on risk, returns, capital strategy, and the real differences that set Masonwood apart in the way it delivers thoughtfully designed communities.
We go deeper into leadership, culture, and the future of women in construction finance, exploring what it really takes to earn a seat at the table and the traits Jack looks for in the next generation of financial leaders. Population growth. Land scarcity. Infrastructure strain. Rising rates. Sustainability pressures. Jack shares where he sees the opportunities, where the risks are hiding, and how he “future proofs” the financial model for the next wave of Austin development.
This episode is a masterclass in strategy, leadership, and market insight from one of the sharpest minds in Texas development. Listen in and level up.
