Polk County, FL — In-State Absentee 5–20 Acre Vacant Land

Description

Vacant Polk County tracts between 5 and 20 acres owned by Floridians whose mailing address sits elsewhere in the state, from the FL DOR 2025 public assessment rolls. Same prized acreage band as the out-of-state flagship list, but in-state owners are cheaper to skip trace and far easier to reach by phone.

Best use case

Mail-plus-call campaigns on the county's most resale-friendly acreage band.

Included fields

• Owner name
• Mailing address
• City/State/ZIP
• County
• Parcel ID
• Acreage
• Land use code
• Situs address

Exclusions

Deduplicated to one record per owner name and mailing address — owners holding multiple parcels appear once, so the count reflects mailable owners rather than raw parcels.

Caveats

Parts of southwest Polk carry phosphate-mining history, and 'ranchette' shares around River Ranch often lack legal access — screen parcel history before pricing offers.

Due diligence notes

Verify ownership, back taxes, legal and physical access, flood zone, wetlands coverage, and zoning independently before mailing offers or contracting.

Sample outreach angle

“You own acreage in Polk County but live across the state — we'll make a cash offer and handle everything remotely.”
