Hi,
This is my first post in this forum but - 2 second bio - I have industry experience (as an agent) and have been following/implementing retipster content for the past few months.
I got a response from a recent mail campaign from an elderly landowner that says he has 52 lots, which he bought 40 years ago, that he’d like to sell. When I went to the county database to research the parcels I found that only ten results are listed under the owner’s name and it appears that’s because the majority of the parcels are grouped in their database and in their mapping interface. For example, the description of one parcel # is “S ABER BROADWAY LOTS 1-6 INC & LOTS 14-17 INC BLK 36” - apparently 10 lots. And when viewed through their GIS map it shows as what looks like two parcels
Further confusing things for me, the parcels are listed as 0 acres and I don’t yet know why.
I’m going to contact the county tomorrow and see what additional info I can gather but I was wondering if anyone in this community had encountered a situation similar to this and had any thoughts/insights/advice to share.
Based on my initial research it looks like a majority of the parcels are landlocked and the terrain is questionable, so there’s a possibility the payoff might not be worth the headache even if I could buy these for next to nothing but in any case it’s something I haven’t come across before and I’d like to learn from it if possible.
