What this means if you own land

Three things the data tells sellers:

  1. Your block matters. The two highest sales ($314–$403) were same-block deals — assembled positions earn a premium.
  2. Your zoning matters. Standard residential zoning (R3-2) trades $199–$262; commercial and higher-density zoning prices differently.
  3. Entitlement is the multiplier. Raw land trades up to about $403; entitled land printed about $498. If a buyer talks about rezoning your lot, that upside has a number.

If someone makes you an offer on your land, check it against this range before you sign anything.
