About Heartland Development
Heartland Development is built on a foundation of experience, integrity, and long-standing ties to the Brazos Valley and surrounding areas. Backed by the Mancuso family’s presence and work in the region for over six decades, we bring a deep understanding of the land, the people, and what it takes to develop property the right way.
What began as hands-on work in land, infrastructure, and local business has grown into a development company focused on thoughtful planning, disciplined execution, and long-term value. Today, Heartland Development carries that legacy forward by working alongside rural landowners, commercial developers, engineers, and investors to bring projects from concept to completion. From preparing raw land to managing complex site development, our role is to simplify the process while protecting both the integrity of the land and the investment behind it.
Built Right. Built to Last.
A Legacy in the Brazos Valley Area
Experience you can trust.
Built on the legacy established by Cullen and Patti Mancuso, the Mancuso family has lived, worked, and invested in the Brazos Valley and surrounding areas for generations. That history shapes how we approach every project — with accountability, respect for the land, and a commitment to doing things right.
We understand the nuances of developing in this region — from rural tracts to growing commercial corridors — because we’ve been part of its growth. Our local roots give us perspective that can’t be learned from a map or a spreadsheet.

Who We Work With
A partner, not just a contractor.
We work with individual landowners, families, developers, engineers, and investors who value transparency and quality. Whether preparing family land or developing a commercial site, we approach every project as if it were our own.
Our goal isn’t just to complete a project—it’s to build relationships that last.
Proudly Serving the Brazos Valley & Surrounding Texas Communities
Heartland Development is locally based and Texas-focused. We’re proud to serve the Brazos Valley and surrounding communities with the same care and responsibility that has guided the Mancuso Family for generations.
