Walton Global Launches $500M Growth and Income Land Fund

Walton Global is expanding its access to independent wealth channels with the launch of the American Builder Growth and Income Fund, a strategy seeking to raise up to $500 million through independent broker-dealers, RIAs and family office platforms. 

The fund combines income-oriented, secured land loans through Walton’s Builder Land Financing platform with a growth-focused land acquisition strategy aimed at capturing appreciation as homebuilders acquire shovel-ready parcels. 

“U.S. housing is fundamentally undersupplied, land is increasingly scarce, and affordability continues to be a concern,” said Bill Doherty, CEO of Walton Global. “The point of maximum opportunity occurs at the entitled, infrastructure-ready land stage, where uncertainty has been removed, capital risk is limited, and builders pay a premium just before vertical construction begins.” 

Walton said the strategy targets the critical bottleneck in the housing supply chain: entitled land. With supply adjustments constrained by zoning, permitting and infrastructure timelines, builders increasingly rely on option structures and land-banking arrangements to reduce balance-sheet intensity. Walton, which has worked with most of the nation’s top 20 homebuilders, positions itself as a capital partner in that process. 

“During periods of economic uncertainty, real assets are often favored due to their intrinsic value,” said Katie Hubbard, president of Capital Markets in the U.S. for Walton Global. “Land offers durable inflation protection, low correlation to financial markets and provides an opportunity for ongoing income and growth with upside.”
