Lee County Land for Sale

Buyers looking at land for sale in Lehigh Acres, FL are buying a recorded lot in unincorporated Lee County. Call 239-688-7201 with the STRAP number.

I’m Sean Kaptaine, a Florida land investor. There is no city hall for Lehigh Acres. Zoning, permits, and the property record sit with Lee County.

Lee County land for sale in the Lehigh Acres grid

The U.S. Census Bureau lists Lehigh Acres as a census-designated place in Lee County, not an incorporated city. The 2020 Census profile puts land area at 92.69 square miles. Eastern Lee County is the map this site is on. Alva, Buckingham, and Fort Myers sit next to this grid; they are not this site.

A Lee County land search still has to land on a street and a STRAP. The Lee County Property Appraiser file is where the STRAP, the legal description, and the acreage live. Use that acreage. I sell lots I buy here by owner. I advertise other owners’ lots. I take calls when you want an offer.

East Lehigh Acres, West Lehigh Acres, Southeast Lehigh Acres, and Southwest Lehigh Acres are how I start a call when you do not have the STRAP yet. Name the street if you have it. Those four cuts are a phone map, not a second county line.

Checking a vacant lot with Lee County

Start with the STRAP on the Property Appraiser site. Then read zoning for that pin with Lee County Community Development. The classification on the map is the start of the use file. A house, a shop, or a trailer are different code paths. Say the use on the call.

Flood maps are a separate overlay. Pull the zone on the STRAP at the FEMA Flood Map Service Center, then confirm it with the county. Access is how you get from pavement to the corner. Walk the entrance.

Florida DEP’s onsite sewage program says county health department offices do the permitting and inspection for septic tanks. Lee County is in that county-office path. I describe the lot. You confirm onsite sewage with the county health department and the state file.

FGUA water, wells, and Lee County canals

Florida Governmental Utility Authority runs a Lehigh Acres water and wastewater system, acquired in December 2003. FGUA’s own system page lists Lee County systems including Lehigh Acres. Central water and sewer reach parts of this grid. Many lots still use a well and a septic system. Ask FGUA whether that street has a tap. Do not take a neighboring meter as your tap.

Lehigh Acres Municipal Services Improvement District was established June 10, 2015. LA-MSID maintains the canal system and levies a per-acre non-ad valorem assessment. I pull the current rate from LA-MSID when we are on a specific STRAP. A canal-bank lot and a lot two streets off the water are different walks.

Buying or advertising Lee County lots from this site

If you are buying, bring the STRAP or the street and the area. I will tell you what I have and what other owners have asked me to advertise. Lots I sell, I sell for cash or with your own lender.

If you own a lot in this grid, call with the STRAP, the size, and the asking price. You sell the land. This site advertises it. If you want an offer, say that when I pick up.

Start with the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for Lehigh Acres CDP. Then call 239-688-7201 with the STRAP. I answer as Sean Kaptaine, Florida land investor.

The Census QuickFacts table is a community snapshot. It is not a lot file. Population, land area, and the CDP name tell you this is one statistical place in Lee County. Your purchase is still one STRAP. I keep those two maps separate on the call.

Lee County Community Development is the zoning office for unincorporated land. I point you at that office and at the Property Appraiser. I describe what I see on the ground. The county writes the classification and the permit.

If you hold lots in more than one cut of the grid, we still do one STRAP at a time. A canal lot and a sand-road lot are different walks even when they share a tax year. Photos of the street and the corners help. A recent tax bill helps. The STRAP still comes first.

Lots I sell, I sell in my name, by owner, for cash or with your lender. Other owners set their own asking price on lots they advertise here. There is no fee listed on this site. Call and I will tell you the next step for that pin.

A recorded lot in this grid is usually about a quarter acre. Some pins are oversized. Some owners hold several in a row. I still want one STRAP on the first call. We can stack the rest after that pin is clear.

Nothing on this hub is a listed lot until I put a STRAP, a size, and a price on its own page. Until then, call and I will tell you what I can show you and what other owners have asked me to advertise.

Call 239-688-7201 with the STRAP. Keep Fort Myers, Alva, Buckingham, and Hendry County land on a different conversation so this hub stays on Lehigh Acres in Lee County.
