We buy vacant lots in Lee County, home to the largest platted lot inventory in the country.
Lee County holds more than 337,000 platted lots, and roughly 232,000 of them are still vacant. Almost all of that sits inside two enormous pre-platted subdivisions, Cape Coral and Lehigh Acres, both carved out of raw land in the 1950s and 1960s and sold on installment to buyers who never came.
We buy with our own funds. No listing, no showings, no waiting on a mortgage, and no commission taken off what you walk away with. Tell us where the lot is, we research it, and we send a written offer, usually within 48 hours.
No commissions. No agent fees. We pay the closing costs.
Why Lee County lots sit unsold
Streets that exist only on the plat
Lehigh Acres in particular was laid out as a vast grid far ahead of any construction, and a great many of its lots front roads that were drawn on the recorded plat and never built on the ground. A parcel with no physical access cannot be financed, permitted or insured in the normal way, so retail buyers and their lenders walk. That single fact keeps thousands of Lee County lots off the market indefinitely.
Access, utilities and flood zones
Large parts of Lehigh Acres front streets that exist on the plat and nowhere on the ground, and sit well outside any utility service area. Since Hurricane Ian, flood zone designations carry more weight with buyers and insurers across the county. Any one of those is enough to end a retail sale. None of them stop us.
Florida also moves faster than most states on unpaid taxes. Two years after delinquency a certificate holder can force your lot to a tax deed auction. Our Florida page explains that clock in full.
What it costs to sell Lee County land the traditional way
Florida charges a uniform documentary stamp tax on the deed, and the seller traditionally pays it.
| Listing With An Agent | SOLD To Clever Land Buyers LLC | |
|---|---|---|
| Agent commission: | Around 6%, if an agent will take a vacant lot listing at all | NONE |
| Documentary stamp tax: | 70¢ per $100 of price, traditionally paid by the seller | We cover it |
| Title work and recording: | Yours to pay | We cover it |
| No built road or utilities: | Usually ends the sale once a buyer investigates | We price it in and still buy |
| Days until sold: | 150+ days is routine, and platted subdivision lots often sit for years | 90 days or less |
| Property tax while you wait: | Yours, with the two year tax deed clock running | Stops at closing |
Rates change. Confirm current figures with the county or your title company before relying on them.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Our offer is a net offer.

Lee County questions we get most
Q:Do you buy in both Cape Coral and Lehigh Acres?
A: Yes, and between them they account for almost all of the county’s vacant inventory. Lee County holds more than 337,000 platted lots with roughly 232,000 still empty, and the great majority of those sit inside those two subdivisions.
Q:My Lehigh Acres lot has no road. Will you buy it?
A: Yes. A great many Lehigh lots front streets drawn on the plat that were never built, and sit outside any utility service area. That is exactly why they never sold on the open market and why an agent will not list them. It does not stop us.
Q:Does a flood zone designation kill the deal?
A: Not with us. Flood designations carry more weight with buyers and insurers across Lee County since Hurricane Ian, which has pushed more retail buyers away. We price it in and still buy.
Q:How long before unpaid taxes cost me the lot?
A: Florida taxes are delinquent 1 April and a certificate is sold by 1 June. Two years after delinquency the certificate holder can apply for a tax deed and force your lot to auction. You can redeem before that by paying what is owed, but once it sells the property and any equity are gone.
