Builder-Aware
Real Estate Guidance
Katie Bankston provides builder-aware real estate guidance. As Principal of The Bankston Group at The Agency Dallas, she provides new construction representation for buyers, builders, and developers across DFW, from lot selection and builder contracts through the final walkthrough.
She doesn't just sell new construction — she runs it like a brand. A certified interior decorator, Katie shapes the selections and staging that make spec homes sell for more. She set Colleyville's land record, and her specialties include land, ranch, and rural properties across Texas, with a focus on acreage near DFW. Her three-state license (TX, CO, SC) also connects builder inventory with a national pipeline of relocating buyers.
Backed by a collaborative team built on one standard of excellence, Katie gives builders, sellers, and buyers the same thing: informed guidance that sees the value others miss and helps them make clear decisions.
