The offer follows Gov. Greg Abbott inviting Musk to move Twitter's offices to the Lone Star State.

An Austin-area man is offering Elon Musk free land to use for Twitter's headquarters should the billionaire choose to relocate his newly purchased company from San Francisco to Texas. Twitter accepted Musk's deal to buy the social media platform for $44 billion on Monday, which prompted Gov. Greg Abbott to invite the richest man in the world to move its headquarters to the Lone Star State and join three of Musk's other companies.

Now Jim Schwertner, president and CEO of Schwertner Farms, is making his own offer to Musk. "Elon Musk, Move Twitter to Schwertner, TX. 38 Miles North of Austin in Williamson County, and we will give you 100 Acres for FREE," Schwertner wrote on Twitter Tuesday.

Schwertner oversees farming and ranching on 20,000 acres of land just north of Georgetown, according to Austonia's Andrea Guzmán. He said that the move would be a "win-win for everybody," adding that a business like Twitter would bring a lot of jobs and boost the economy.
