Executive Summary

The Opportunity

4.75 AC

RS-3 zoned residential parcel in a high-growth corridor of unincorporated Indian River County. No rezoning required — 10–12 single-family lots by right. Flat topography, minimal environmental constraints, and proximity to the $95M Oslo Road/I-95 interchange project (~2028).

Pricing Conclusion

$950,000

Recommended list price of ~$200,000/acre is anchored by the development residual approach. Meaningfully below the owner's current FSBO ask of $1,100,000 and above what income capitalization alone supports — positioned to attract developers at market while generating maximum net proceeds.

Interim Income + Upside

$43,200/yr

Existing duplex generates $3,600/month in immediate rental income to offset holding costs during entitlement and planning. Upside via full site redevelopment or addition of 2–3 more duplex structures under RS-3 by right — enhancing appeal to value-add investors as well as builders.

Existing Improvements

The property is improved with a 1983-vintage, 1,408 SF CBS/stucco farmhouse (new roof, impact windows), an income-producing duplex, and a 6-stall horse barn with equestrian facilities. All improvements provide interim holding income during development planning and may be retained or redeveloped.

Farmhouse

1,408 SF CBS/stucco, 1983 vintage. New roof and impact windows installed — turnkey condition.

Income Duplex

Generating $3,600/month in current rental income — immediate cash flow to offset carry costs.

Horse Barn

6-stall barn with equestrian facilities. Broadens buyer appeal to rural lifestyle and equestrian buyers.

Flat Topography

Minimal grading or site prep required — reduces subdivision cost and accelerates development timeline.

Oslo/I-95 Project

$95M FDOT interchange upgrade (~2028) enhances long-term access and drives surrounding development.

Builder Proximity

DiVosta, GHO, Lennar, and Maronda all active within 2–5 miles — proven demand corridor for raw land.

Key Takeaway

The residual analysis confirms that $950,000 requires finished lot values of $120,000+ to pencil at 10 lots — supported by Emerson Oaks comparables and the IRC finished lot average of $151,000. At 12 lots, economics improve meaningfully and support the recommended list price.

Key Benchmark: DiVosta / Emerson Oaks — December 2024

DiVosta (PulteGroup) purchased 83 acres on 43rd Avenue — approximately 2 miles south of the subject — for $7,000,000 ($84,337/acre). DiVosta plans 171 single-family homes priced from the high $400s to $800,000. This transaction establishes a strong benchmark for large-scale residential development land in the immediate area. The subject's smaller scale (4.75 vs. 83 acres) supports a meaningful per-acre premium — consistent with the recommended $200,000/acre list price.

Land Valuation — Three Approaches

Comparable Sales

$760K–$962K
Weighted 50%

Benchmarked against verified 2024 IRC residential land transactions. IRC avg ($175,794/ac × 4.75) = $835K. DiVosta benchmark ($184,337/ac × 4.75) = $875K. 6145 45th St nearby asking = $879K. 15% small-parcel premium: $862K. Indicated range: $760,000–$962,000.

Income Approach

$334K–$445K
Weighted 25%

Based on existing duplex generating $3,600/month ($43,200/yr). NOI after vacancy & expenses: ~$26,700. Capitalized at 6.0% = $445,000; at 8.0% = $334,000. This approach understates value — it ignores development potential and is used as a floor/sanity check.

Development Residual

$622K–$925K
Weighted 25%

Works backward from finished home sale prices and estimated subdivision development costs. Conservative 10-lot midpoint: ~$850,000. Full range at 10-lot scenario: $622,500–$925,000. Best reflects highest-and-best-use as a residential subdivision site.

Recommended List Price

$950,000

~$200,000/acre · Expected contract range: $850,000–$950,000 · Timeline to contract: 60–120 days. Anchored by the development residual approach, supported by comparable sales, and positioned with negotiating room while generating a net outcome well above the 2021 purchase price of $325,000.

Valuation Range by Approach — All Three Methods

Pricing Strategy & Recommendation

Option A

$875,000
Below Market · 45–75 Days

Urgency price. Attracts immediate developer interest. Fastest path to contract — ideal if timing is the priority.

★ Recommended

Option B

$950,000
Market Value · 60–120 Days

Best balance of price and timeline. Supported by all three valuation approaches. Positioned to attract developer buyers at a defensible price.

Option C

$1,000,000
Premium · 90–180 Days

Tests the upper range. May limit buyer pool. Provides negotiating room but risks longer carry — viable if timeline flexibility exists.
