Southside Bank to Open New Location in The Woodlands
The Acquisition of Bank Building at 1410 Research Forest Launches Southside Bank’s Northwest Houston and Montgomery County Expansion Plans
The Woodlands, TX – January 27, 2026 — Newcor Commercial Real Estate announces the successful acquisition of a freestanding bank building located at 1410 Research Forest in The Woodlands, Texas. The ±1.49-acre property was purchased by Southside Bank and will serve as the bank’s first full-service location in The Woodlands, continuing its expansion into the North Houston and Montgomery County market. Rob Banzhaf and Axel Hevener of Newcor represented Southside in the transaction. The Seller was represented by Jackson Cain and Ethan Dellmore of the SVN J. Beard Real Estate Company.
The approximately 3,925-square-foot building is situated along one of The Woodlands’ most heavily trafficked commercial corridors, offering strong visibility and access in a submarket that continues to attract significant interest from national and regional financial institutions. The acquisition establishes Southside Bank’s commercial and retail presence in the area, with plans to expand further into The Woodlands and greater North Houston region.
“This transaction was particularly meaningful given the competitive nature of the market,” said Rob Banzhaf. “The Woodlands remains one of the most sought-after banking markets in the region, with nearly every major institution seeking a presence here. Successfully securing a well-located bank building for Southside Bank in this environment was a great outcome and an important step in their growth strategy in this market.”
The Woodlands’ strong demographics, established retail corridors, and limited supply of available bank-ready sites continue to drive intense competition among financial service users looking to establish or expand their footprint.
“We’re excited to support Southside Bank as they execute on their broader expansion plans in this market,” added Axel Hevener. “This property provides an excellent Hub for their first location, as we look forward to assisting them in locating three to four additional sites in this market.”
