Upland Crossing, West Lubbock
79407 · a Betenbough-built neighborhood, now a resale market — a seller's guide from Bre Brossman, REALTOR®
Upland Crossing is a Betenbough-built neighborhood in west Lubbock that the builder has finished selling — which means every home that changes hands here from now on is a resale, sold by a private owner. That is a different transaction from a builder sale, it is handled on different paperwork, and it is the one the builder's own website no longer says anything about. This page is written for the people living in it.
If you own a home in Upland Crossing and are thinking about selling — now or in a couple of years — the rest of this page is for you. If you are shopping for a resale here, the second half covers what to ask.
Where it is, and what was built
Upland Crossing sits along Upland Avenue south of 19th Street, in the 79407 ZIP code on the west side of Lubbock. Nineteenth Street runs east to Loop 289, Texas Tech and the medical district; Upland connects south toward 34th Street and the Marsha Sharp Freeway.
Betenbough Homes broke ground here in late 2019. According to the builder's announcement as reported by BUILDER magazine on December 3, 2019, the plan was approximately 870 homes from 24 home designs, with a large central park and smaller pocket parks. The same report notes the company had recently closed on its 10,000th home across its West Texas markets.
As of October 22, 2026, Betenbough's website lists its active Lubbock communities elsewhere and its former Upland Crossing page returns "Page Not Found" (betenbough.com/lubbock). That is the normal life cycle of a production-builder neighborhood: the builder sells out, moves its sales staff to the next community, and the neighborhood becomes a resale market.
What a resale buyer asks about a production-built home
Five to seven years in, the questions change. A buyer walking into a resale here is not asking about plan options and lot premiums. They are asking:
Which plan is it, and what was upgraded? With two dozen designs across hundreds of homes, the plan name is the first filter a buyer applies — and the upgrade list (flooring, counters, the back-yard work, the garage, the fence) is the second. Sellers who kept the original selection sheet can answer both in writing.
What is left of the warranty? Betenbough publishes a two-year warranty on its new homes (read 2026-10-22). For most homes here that period has run; whether any longer-term coverage exists, and whether it transfers, is answered by the original warranty documents — keep them with the closing packet.
How has it been maintained? Roofs after West Texas hail seasons, HVAC service records, the water heater, the irrigation system, and any work done to the yard or drainage. Buyers of a 5–7-year-old home expect it to inspect like a 5–7-year-old home. Surprises on the inspection report are what cost sellers money in this age bracket, not the age itself.
Is there an association or deed restrictions, and what do they cost? The answer lives in the recorded documents and the title commitment, not on any website — including this one. Get it in writing for the specific lot.
Before you list in Upland Crossing
Your comparables are your neighbors. That cuts both ways. A neighborhood built from a shared plan book gives an appraiser plenty of near-twins to work from, which makes values easy to support — and it means the things that separate your home from the one that sold last month are condition, upgrades, and presentation. Price is set by a live pull of what has sold here and in the surrounding 79407 market, adjusted for those differences; I share that comparison with you before we pick a number. (Texas is a non-disclosure state, so you will not find sale prices printed here.)
Presentation decides the near-twin contest. When two homes share a floor plan, the one that is photographed, filmed and staged like it matters is the one buyers remember. Every home I list gets the same marketing standard — a short film, professional photography, and a listing written around the plan and the upgrades, not around adjectives. You can see what that looks like on the home page.
Mind the timing. West Lubbock and Wolfforth are adding new supply — Betenbough's own Harvest is planned at 2,500 homesites — and a lot of the people buying there are selling homes like yours to do it. That is not a reason to rush and not a reason to wait; it is a reason to plan the sale rather than improvise it. The Lubbock Index carries the current Lubbock numbers monthly.
Keep the builder packet together. Plan name, selection sheet, warranty documents, survey, and any permits for work done since. A seller who can hand a buyer that folder has removed half the questions before they are asked.
Buying a resale here instead of building new
The honest comparison: a resale in Upland Crossing gives you a finished yard, a known house with a service history, a standard Texas resale contract with its option period, and a move-in date that does not depend on a build schedule. New construction nearby gives you the builder's warranty, your own selections, and a builder's financing incentives, in exchange for months of waiting and the builder's own contract. Neither is simply better. Here is the longer version of that comparison. If you are weighing a resale here against a new build, I will walk you through both with real numbers.
Working with a REALTOR® in Upland Crossing
On a listing here I am pulling the plan-by-plan sales history, pricing against the near-twins, preparing the home so the inspection holds no surprises, and marketing it to the standard above. On a purchase I am reading the inspection against what a home of this age should look like, checking the recorded restrictions, and comparing the resale honestly against new construction a few miles west.
