Forestar Group (formerly Forestar Real Estate Group) wants to succeed by going south. The company, which operates in the southern US, operates through three segments: real estate, mineral resources, and fiber resources. Its primary activity is developing residential and mixed-use communities; it has two-dozen entitlement projects, mostly in Texas and in the Atlanta area. Forestar owns more than 250,000 acres of real estate, mostly undeveloped land. The group also holds some 625,000 net acres of oil and gas mineral interests. The fiber resources segment encompasses the sale of wood fiber taken from the company's land holdings. Forestar was spun off from paper products manufacturer Temple-Inland in late 2007.
