Bobby called me a couple days ago from Homestead about a quarter acre near Satsuma, all the way on the other end of the state, and by the end of the call he was eyeing a whole cluster of lots in the same quiet corner of the map. The kind of place where the St. Johns River is a short drive and Palatka is ten minutes up the road.
Here is the thing about that corner. It moves. Two of the lots buyers had been circling just went under contract this week. Same owner financing, no credit check, the freedom to put a mobile home, a tiny home, or two homes on one lot. Spoken for before most people finished thinking about them.
Already under contract:
Hawknest Road, Satsuma — a quarter acre where rent builds nothing and this builds equity. $199 down, $198/mo.
A mobile-home-ready quarter acre in Interlachen — a blank canvas with a dirt road in and room for two homes on one lot. $49 down, $221/mo.
If you have been waiting for a sign, watching two lots disappear in a week is it.
Now the good news. The one lot Bobby keeps coming back to is still open, and so are three more cut from the same cloth as the ones that sold.
Still yours if you want it:
E Deep Creek Blvd, Flagler Estates — 1.6 acres of pine and palmetto where deer, hog, and turkey move through, tucked between St. Augustine and Palm Coast. Across Division Road the same land sells for three times as much. $499 down, $280/mo.
E Deep Creek Blvd, Flagler Estates — 1.6 acres between St. Augustine and Palm Coast. $499 down.
More land in the same corridor:
Cockscrow Road, Satsuma — a third of an acre with room for two homes on one lot, made for dual living or a duplex. $199 down, $319/mo.
A quarter acre in Interlachen — site-built or manufactured, power at the street, the easiest way in on this list. $99 down, $225/mo.
The biggest lot on Manchester Avenue, Interlachen — three-quarters of an acre of your own forest, marked down right now for Freedom Days. $299 down, $341/mo.
A quarter acre in Interlachen — power at the street, the easiest way in. $99 down.
Bobby figured out what most people miss. In a corner that is heating up, the smart move is to plant your flag before the price catches up to it.
