한국 기업 한림, 오스틴 지역 골프장 3곳 구매 완료

한국의 건설 및 레저 기업인 한림(Hanlim)이 오스틴 인근에서 소유하고 있던 주요 골프 코스 3곳을 2025년 10월 구매 했다는 소식이다. 매각 대상은 팔콘헤드(Falconhead), 에이베리 랜치(Avery Ranch), 테라비스터(Teravista) 골프 클럽이며, 이번 거래를 통해 오스틴 지역의 대형 레저 자산 소유권에 큰 변화가 생겼다.
1. 매각 자산 및 규모
- 매각 대상: 비 카이브(Bee Cave)의 팔콘헤드, 오스틴 북부의 에이베리 랜치, 라운드락의 테라비스터 골프 클럽이다.
- 인수 주체: 애리조나에 본사를 둔 골프장 운영 전문 기업인 아시스 골프(Arcis Golf)가 이 3개의 코스를 모두 인수했다.
- 거래 배경: 한림은 지난 2010년대 중반부터 이 골프장들을 매입하여 운영해 왔다. 최근 오스틴 지역의 부동산 및 레저 자산 가치가 급등함에 따라 자산 포트폴리오 재편을 위해 매각을 결정한 것으로 분석된다.
2. 지역 부동산 시장에 미치는 영향
- 입지적 중요성: 매각된 골프장들은 모두 오스틴 내에서 주거 선호도가 가장 높은 지역(Bee Cave, Avery Ranch, Round Rock)에 위치하고 있다.
- 운영 전문성 강화: 새로운 인수자인 아시스 골프는 미국 내 두 번째로 큰 골프장 운영사로, 이번 인수를 통해 해당 골프장들의 시설 개선과 서비스 수준 향상이 기대된다. 이는 인근 주택 단지의 가치 유지에도 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 전망이다.
3. 오스틴 내 한국 기업 투자 동향
- 이번 매각은 한국 기업이 오스틴 지역에서 성공적으로 자산을 운영하고 수익을 실현(Exit)한 사례로 평가받는다. 삼성전자 등 제조 분야뿐만 아니라 레저 및 부동산 투자 분야에서도 한국 자본의 영향력이 컸음을 보여주는 지표이기도 하다.

Korean company purchases Austin-area golf courses for $85M
Deal marks its first U.S. golf course acquisitions
A Korean entity has acquired three Austin-area golf courses, according to deed records, published news reports and officials. It signifies the continued interest of Korean entities in doing business in the area.
Two courses, Avery Ranch Golf Club in Williamson County and Teravista Golf Club in Round Rock, on Oct. 24 were acquired by separate entities that tie to the same address in Lewisville, which is near Dallas, according to Williamson County property records. The courses were owned by Round Rock-based Magnolia Hospitality Management Co. LLC.
While the identity of the company behind the purchase was not disclosed, KoreaTexas Forum CEO EC Chi, who has direct knowledge of the matter, confirmed news reports out of Korea that Hanlim Construction, which is known for operating Hanlim Yongin Country Club and two others, is the company behind the purchases.
Chi also confirmed reports that Hanlim has also bought Falconhead Golf Club in western Travis County, though that sale does not appear yet in Travis County property records. That course appears to be owned by the Spillman family in Plainview, which is near Lubbock.
The total acquisition was $85 million, Chi said, adding that the purchases marked the company's first golf course acquisitions in the United States. The company was represented by Samil Accounting Corp., also known as Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers, the South Korean member firm of the global accounting and consulting firm PwC.
Korean news outlets noted that the combined annual revenue of the three courses is estimated at about 30 billion Korean won, or $20.4 million.
Chi said Hanlim launched in 1980 and initially focused on building apartment buildings. But it's well known for going where Korean companies go, especially in the United States. It has transitioned to owning golf courses as a way to support the business ecosystem.
"Golf course business is a major income-drawing business for Koreans, especially if you place it among Korean companies," Chi said. "But, also they want to diversify and expand their client base. We have Oracle, Apple, Dell and Tesla here in Central Texas. It was more of a global strategic footprint idea."
A representative of Magnolia Hospitality Management did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A representative of Falconhead didn't respond to requests for comment.
Korean companies, largely buoyed by the Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. plant in Taylor, have been taking interest in the region. That has included various companies in the Sansung supply chain, as well as a bank, industrial developer and car parts maker. Those companies have located everywhere from Bastrop to Taylor to Georgetown.
