CHARLOTTE, N.C. and DALLAS (June 9, 2026) - In the continued development of a rare new, ground-up retail property, Big V Property Group and The Seitz Group will celebrate the groundbreaking of Rosamond Town Center in Anna, Texas, on Tuesday, June 30 at 10 a.m. at the southeast corner of Rosamond Parkway and Hwy. 75. Scheduled to attend will be executives from Big V Property Group, The Seitz Group, Principal Asset Management®, Citizens Bank, and public officials including Anna Mayor Pete Cain.
The 355,826-square-foot, open-air center will be anchored by Academy Sports + Outdoors, Aldi, Burlington, EOS Fitness, Hobby Lobby, HomeGoods, PetSmart and T.J. Maxx, and will feature several outparcels and specialty stores. It is an additional, complementary development to Rosamond Crossing, with 175,300 square feet anchored by Kroger (now under construction), with other tenants including Bank of America and McDonald's about to start construction. The two will be part of a 750,000-square-foot complex in Collin County being developed by Big V Property Group, The Seitz Group and Principal.
"We're delighted that this new, much-needed project to serve a growing submarket of Dallas is continuing so rapidly - with Rosamond Town Center beginning construction nearly one year ahead of our original schedule," said Jeffrey Rosenberg, Chairman and CEO of Big V Property Group. "Our partnership with Eric Seitz on this exciting new project has been an extraordinary way to expand our redevelopment, management, operations and leasing expertise into new construction."
Rosamond Town Center is the result of a strong partnership between The Seitz Group and Big V Property Group, which boast decades of combined experience in retail development and operations. Based in Dallas/Fort Worth, The Seitz Group has developed 51 retail shopping centers totaling 8.8 million square feet over its 33-year history. Big V Property Group, with over 80 years of experience, owns and manages 23 shopping centers. The Anna projects are its first ground-up developments. Together, the partnership contributes extensive expertise in commercial real estate development, asset management, property management, and leasing.
"Our strategy as we acquire and redevelop properties around the United States has been to reinvest in their infrastructure and bring in the tenants that consumers want and need today," said Kenton McKeehan, President and Chief Investment Officer of Big V Property Group. "Working with Eric Seitz, we are employing the same leasing, management and operations expertise to this new project, that will create a dense core of retail to serve Anna and surrounding communities."
Anna was recently named the fifth fastest-growing U.S. city with populations of 20,000 or more, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Three neighboring cities - Celina, Princeton, and Melissa - were ranked first third and fourth. The centers are located in Collin County, one of the fastest growing counties in the U.S., with population growth of 12% from 2020 to 2023 to nearly 1.2 million people. That number is expected to double by 2060, equaling all of the city of Houston. The median household income is $117,000.
"That we are breaking ground on Rosamond Town Center less than one year after beginning construction on our Southeast project is a testament to the need for more quality retail in Anna, and especially on the Interstate 75 corridor," said Eric Seitz, The Seitz Group. "And the area continues to grow, with housing developments being announced regularly. These new residents will have the best-in-class shopping, dining and services right in their own backyards."
Big V Property group already owns and operates six properties in the Lone Star State, comprising of RIM and Alamo Ranch in San Antonio, Glade Parks in Euless, Deerbrook Marketplace in Humble, Fairfield Town Center in Cypress and Southpark Meadows in Austin. As a vertically integrated company, the 80-year-old, family-run Big V Property Group boasts decades of experience in real estate asset management, commercial property management, outparcel development and leasing.
Rosamond Town Center is being financed with a combination of developer equity, financing from Principal Asset Management®, and construction loan from Citizens Bank.
"Our recent acquisition of Fairfield Town Center in metro Houston was with a fund managed by Principal Asset Management, and we're delighted to extend our relationship with them through this Dallas project," said Bryan Kallenberg, Vice President of Capital Markets for Big V Property Group.
"Based on Big V's expertise in retail, and our successful work with them on acquiring Fairfield Town Center, we're pleased to collaborate on this project," said Colin Frye, Investment Director of Asset Management at Principal Asset Management®. "This new project in Anna, Texas will serve a growing community and reflects our shared focus on supporting high-quality retail development."
"It is so exciting to have these important retailers coming so close to home, creating convenience and economic opportunity for our community," said Pete Cain, Mayor of Anna, Texas. "Working with Big V and The Seitz Group has been a pleasure and we are looking forward to opening day."
