01 - About Bandera & Lantana
Bandera is a residential neighborhood within the larger Lantana master-planned community in Denton County, Texas. It is part of the 76226 real estate market and offers access to the broader Lantana lifestyle, including community amenities, neighborhood events, pools, parks, trails, fitness facilities, and recreational spaces.
Bandera homes are resale properties, which means the value of each home depends heavily on its condition, updates, floor plan, lot setting, roof age, HVAC age, outdoor living, garage configuration, and overall maintenance history.
For buyers, Bandera offers the opportunity to purchase in an established section of Lantana. For sellers, it is important to understand how buyers compare Bandera homes against other Lantana neighborhoods, nearby Argyle-area options, and broader Denton County inventory.
Located in the western/northwestern section of Lantana, the Bandera community offers a peaceful setting with convenient access to some of the area’s most desirable amenities. Developed primarily by Highland Homes beginning in 2008, Bandera sits just west of Copper Canyon Road and southeast of Lantana Trail, centered around streets such as Jasmine Street, Bayberry Avenue, and Bluebell Avenue.
Residents enjoy quick access to Lantana Trail for easy travel toward Argyle and Interstate 35W, while also being just about 1.5 miles northwest of Lantana Golf Club and the main community amenities center. With nearby greenbelts, walking trails, parks, on-site Denton ISD schools, and recreational spots like Castlewood Park, Bandera offers a well-connected Lantana lifestyle in a scenic neighborhood setting.
LOCAL INSIGHT WITH SEAY REALTY GROUP
Bandera’s residents enjoy convenient access to both Lantana’s newest Community Event Center with a Monarch Way Station (provided by Lantana Cares – 501(c)(3)), and the North Amenity Center (with gym and Olympic sized pool). There area also near one of the many Nature Trail entrances within the Lantana Community. While Bandera residents can enjoy all of Lantana’s amenities, these are conveniently close to the Bandera subdivision.
Laurel should be compared with other Lantana neighborhoods based on home age, floor plan, square footage, lot size, updates, proximity to amenities, school zoning, traffic patterns, and current resale inventory. In the last two years, Laurel hasn’t had a lot of homes list on the market, which is an indicator that its residents love their section of Lantana.
Some Lantana sections may feel newer, while Laurel offers a more established resale-community feel. Buyers often compare Laurel homes with other Lantana neighborhoods as well as nearby areas such as Argyle, Flower Mound, Bartonville, Highland Village, and Denton.
Laurel was developed mainly between 2002 and 2005, making it portions of the communities one of Lantana’s earlier, more established neighborhoods. Homes here tend to have mature trees and settled landscaping, and a higher share of long-term owner-occupants, compared with newer Lantana sections built further north (such as Madison), which feature more recent architectural styles.
Laurel Community was built by Highland Homes. When the Laurel Community was built, it uniquely is a smaller section of homes nestled between Lantana Golf Course, on two sides, and Lantana Trail- making it a very intimate setting within the greater Lantana Community at large. At Laurel’s center, there is a cul-de-sac, where its residents have occasionally had gatherings in in the years since its creation.
Bandera is an established resale neighborhood within Lantana. The CMA reviewed homes built from approximately 2008 to 2016, with closed sales ranging from homes built between 2008 and 2015.
That matters because buyers should approach Bandera differently than a new-construction community. Instead of comparing builder packages, buyers should evaluate real-life resale factors such as:
- Roof age
- HVAC systems
- Flooring updates
- Kitchen condition
- Bathroom condition
- Pool presence or pool condition
- Fence condition
- Outdoor living
- Drainage
- Foundation performance
- Seller disclosures
- Maintenance history
02 - Homes & Real Estate Market
Based on the July 1, 2026 NTREIS CMA reviewed by Seay Realty Group, closed Bandera sales ranged from approximately $472,000 to $645,000, with an average closed sale price of approximately $581,925 and a median closed sale price of approximately $577,500.
Active Bandera listings reviewed in the same CMA ranged from approximately $525,000 to $760,000, with an average active list price of approximately $619,600 and a median active list price of approximately $599,000.
That range is important. A higher asking price does not automatically mean a higher final value. Bandera pricing depends on condition, updates, square footage, lot size, garage configuration, year built, pool presence, layout, days on market, and competing inventory.
Because Texas is a non-disclosure state, buyers and sellers should not rely solely on national automated estimates. An MLS-supported local analysis is essential.
The July 1, 2026 Bandera CMA showed closed homes ranging from approximately 2,135 to 3,660 square feet, with an average closed size of approximately 3,073 square feet and a median closed size of approximately 3,296 square feet.
Across all 25 listings reviewed, including active, active KO, pending, and closed homes, the average size was approximately 3,204 square feet, with a median size of approximately 3,308 square feet.
Most closed sales reviewed had 3 to 4 bedrooms, while active inventory included several 4- and 5-bedroom homes.
Bandera is a resale neighborhood. Buyers should expect existing homes rather than new-construction inventory.
That can be a benefit for buyers who prefer an established Lantana location, completed landscaping, existing patios, possible pool additions, mature neighborhood character, and owner improvements that may already be in place.
However, resale also means condition varies from home to home. Buyers should review inspection findings, seller disclosures, roof age, HVAC age, foundation performance, drainage, window condition, flooring, kitchen updates, bathroom updates, and any pool or outdoor living improvements.
Bandera generally includes single-family homes consistent with Lantana’s established residential style. Depending on the specific property, buyers may find:
- Brick or stone exteriors
- Open-concept kitchens
- Formal dining rooms
- Dedicated studies
- Upstairs game rooms
- Media rooms
- Covered patios
- Attached garages
- Private backyard spaces
- Mature landscaping
- Pools on select properties
The CMA showed closed homes ranging from 3 to 4 bedrooms, while active homes included both 4- and 5-bedroom options.

The July 1, 2026 Bandera CMA reviewed 25 total residential listings in the Bandera subdivision of Lantana. Across all reviewed listings, the average list price was approximately $606,888, the median list price was approximately $600,000, and the median closed sale price where sold data was available was approximately $577,500.
For closed sales specifically, Bandera homes sold at an average of approximately 99.3% of list price and a median of approximately 99.5% of list price during the reviewed period.
The Bandera CMA shows a neighborhood with a meaningful range of resale inventory. Closed sales were generally concentrated from the high-$400s to mid-$600s, while active listings extended into the $700s, with one active KO listing above that range.
For buyers, this means comparing homes carefully. A Bandera home should be evaluated by more than price and square footage. Updates, condition, floor plan, lot size, pool presence, garage count, outdoor living, and maintenance history can all influence value.
For sellers, the key takeaway is that pricing strategy matters. Closed Bandera sales averaged approximately 99.3% of list price, which suggests that properly positioned homes were generally closing close to asking price during the reviewed period.
That does not mean every home will sell near list price. Overpricing, poor presentation, deferred maintenance, limited updates, or stronger competing inventory can affect buyer response.
The Bandera market is property-specific. The July 1, 2026 CMA showed closed sales with an average sale-to-list ratio of approximately 99.3% and a median sale-to-list ratio of approximately 99.5%, while average closed CDOM was approximately 59 days and median closed CDOM was approximately 53 days.
That suggests buyers were willing to pay close to asking price for homes that were properly positioned, but not necessarily immediately or at any price. In an established resale neighborhood, presentation, condition, price, updates, and marketing strategy remain critical.
03 - HOA, Fees & Taxes
Yes. Every home in Bandera is a mandatory member of the Lantana Community Association, the master HOA for the entire Lantana community, currently managed by Insight Association Management.
Based on recent MLS listing data and our team members that live in Lantana’s insight, dues for Bandera homes have run $131 per month.
Local Insight — Seay Realty Group
HOA rates are reviewed and can be adjusted annually by the Lantana Community Association board. We always pull the current resale certificate for clients so there are no surprises at closing.Â
Lantana Community Association dues typically cover front-yard landscape maintenance, 24-hour security monitoring, and access to community amenities including multiple swimming pools, splash pads, fitness centers, tennis and sports courts, hike-and-bike trails, and neighborhood parks.
Specific inclusions (such as bundled cable) can change from year to year, so it’s worth requesting the current HOA budget during a transaction.
LOCAL INSIGHT FROM SEAY REALTY GROUP:
Based on our team’s residents that live in Lantana, HOA dues currently cover:
~ Vector Security 24 hour alarm monitoring and system installation
~Front yard maintenance**
~Amenities
~Common area maintenance
**Front yard maintenance includes mowing, edging, pruning, weeding and fertilization 3 times yearly. Rear yard maintenance may be negotiated on a case-by-case basis with Gold Landscaping at (972) 241-7663.
Front Yard Maintenance CostsÂ
(This cost is based on 40 visits a year) Landscape costs have been annualized and incorporated into the monthly assessments listed above.
Fire/EMS Assessment – Lantana residents pay an annual fee, through the Association, to the Argyle Volunteer Fire Department (AVFD) for Fire and EMS service. This fee is based on the appraised value of your home and the rate charged by the AVFD. For additional information, please contact the Association’s office at 940-728-1660.
As always, before placing an offer on a home in Lantana’s Laurel, contact the HOA directly for any adjustments that have been made to HOA incusions and fees.
Yes — because Lantana is unincorporated, residents pay a small annual assessment, billed through the HOA, that funds fire and EMS coverage from the Argyle Volunteer Fire Department, calculated based on the home’s appraised value rather than a flat rate. Membership at Lantana Golf Club is also separate and optional, on top of standard HOA dues. Contact Lantana Golf Club directly for their most up to date pricing.
There may be additional costs beyond standard HOA dues depending on the property, current HOA structure, and community assessments. Buyers should review the HOA resale certificate, title documents, tax records, lender estimates, and seller disclosures.
Property taxes vary by home and should be reviewed carefully before purchase. Buyers should evaluate county tax records, applicable exemptions, estimated taxes after purchase, and how taxes affect the total monthly payment.
Online mortgage calculators may not accurately include property taxes, HOA dues, insurance, or other ownership costs, so buyers should review a full estimated monthly payment with an experienced Lantana Buyer’s Agent before making an offer.
The short answer is yes. Lantana Community is a MUD district and taxes include allocations to emergency services. Special assessments or district-related fees should be verified by property. Buyers should review title documents, tax records, HOA information, seller disclosures, and lender estimates to understand the full cost of ownership.
Before purchasing in Bandera, buyers should confirm whether any additional assessments, community fees, or district charges apply to the specific property.
04 - Schools & Local Children's Activities

For homebuyers who love pickleball, location within the community can matter.

Is Lantana a pet-friendly community?
Yes. Lantana is a walkable, trail-heavy master-planned community, and pets are very much part of everyday life here. With miles of hike-and-bike trails, greenbelts, sidewalks throughout Bandera and the surrounding sections, and multiple neighborhood parks, dog owners have plenty of room to walk, jog, and exercise pets without leaving the community.
Are there dog parks or off-leash areas in Lantana?
Lantana’s trails, greenbelts, and neighborhood parks are popular for walking dogs, but leash rules apply throughout the community’s common areas and sidewalks, consistent with the Lantana Community Association’s general conduct guidelines.Â
For dedicated off-leash dog parks, several are within a short drive of Bandera, including options in nearby Highland Village, Flower Mound, and Corinth — a convenient option for pet owners who want a fenced, off-leash space in addition to on-leash Lantana’s trail system.
Does the Lantana HOA have pet rules or restrictions?
Bandera homes fall under the Lantana Community Association, and like most HOA communities, there are typically guidelines around leash requirements in common areas, pet waste cleanup, and general nuisance/noise provisions. Some HOAs also include breed, size, or per-household pet limits in their governing documents, however Lantana’s governing documents do not currently have breed or size restrictions for its homeowners.
LOCAL INSIGHT WITH SEAY REALTY GROUP
Pets are a big part of daily life in Lantana — you’ll see dogs on nearly every evening walk through Bandera and along the community trails. If you’re relocating with pets, we always recommend pulling the current HOA pet guidelines as part of your due diligence, right alongside architectural standards and resale certificate review, so there are no surprises after you move in.
Where can pet owners find vets, groomers, and pet supplies near Bandera?
Bandera’s location within Lantana puts residents within a short drive of veterinary clinics, groomers, boarding facilities, and pet supply retailers in nearby Highland Village, Argyle, Flower Mound, and Denton. Several local pet-sitting and dog-walking services also serve the Lantana area directly, which is a popular option for residents who travel or work long hours.
As with any pet-related provider, buyers and residents should confirm current hours, availability, and services directly, since offerings can change.
Is Lantana a good fit for buyers with larger or multiple dogs?
Lantana’s trail network, open green spaces, and lower-density neighborhood feel tend to appeal to buyers with active dogs or multiple pets. That said, yard size, fencing, and lot orientation vary significantly across Bandera and the rest of Lantana, so buyers should walk the actual property with their pets’ needs in mind — not just the neighborhood as a whole.Â
Several of our Seay Realty Group team members have dogs in their prospective neighborhoods in Lantana, and all agree that the K9 community in Lantana is actively thriving. Just ask Maddie (our marketing director’s rottweiler), Penny (our executive assistant’s minature dachshund) or Gary (our listing coordinator’s labrador)- Lantana has some added amenities for pet owners, such as conveniently located disposal bags and trash containers located throughout the trails and along the sidewalks.
Seay Realty Group can help pet-owning buyers narrow in on Bandera listings with the yard space, fencing, and proximity to trails or greenbelts that fit their pets’ lifestyle.
