Rick, a home builder, called me from Cherry Valley, Illinois last week. Twenty-five years swinging hammers, done with the winters, and he wants one thing before he moves down: his own piece of ground — room to build a house and park his dozers and excavators.
I hear that from a lot of you. So I pulled the three lots I sent Rick — all owner-financed, no credit check, a short drive from where the work is.
If you want room to build and room to work —
4 Acres in Interlachen — nearly four acres tucked between 37 lakes, and the zoning lets you put two homes on it: your place plus a second home or rental that helps carry the note while you get set up. No HOA committee. Plenty of room to store equipment while you build. $1,999 down, $1,423/mo.
4.54 Acres in Satsuma — the biggest lot on my board right now, listed the same day Rick called. A paved road runs right to it, most of it is high and dry buildable ground, and it's one of the largest parcels east of the St. Johns River. More land than the Interlachen lot at a lower cash price. $1,499 down, $1,282/mo.
Satsuma — 4.54 acres, high and dry, biggest lot on the board. $1,499 down.
If you want a low-cost foot in the door —
1.1 Acres in Jennings — an acre-plus of North Florida farm ground near the Georgia line. Farm it, raise animals, store your equipment, or build almost any kind of home, with only a light road-upkeep fee. The twin lot next door is available too — grab both and you've got 2.2 acres side by side. $499 down, $401/mo.
Jennings — 1.1 acres of ag land near the Georgia line, twin lot next door. $499 down.
Rick's driving out Thursday to walk both of the bigger lots back to back — they sit about 20 minutes apart. If you want to do the same, or you're just not sure which one fits your budget and your plans, I offer a free Land Intro Call. Fifteen minutes, no pressure. We'll figure out together what makes sense for you.
