Local data
Ormond Beach land at a glance
Tax-roll figures cover the Flagler County part of the Ormond Beach mailing area, across the county line from Ormond Beach itself in Volusia County; the Ormond Beach page counts the Volusia County lots in Flagler County. Local rules and services are sourced below.
| Vacant residential lots | 505 parcels classified vacant residential on the 2026 tax roll [1] |
|---|---|
| Most common lot size | Quarter-acre lot (9,000–13,000 sq ft): 39% of vacant lots; next, patio-home lot at 22%. Median lot: 0.21 acre (9,360 sq ft). [1] |
| Typical assessed value | $71,000 median just (market) value for a vacant lot; the middle half fall between $60,000 and $103,000 [1] |
| Recent lot sale prices | Too few arm's-length vacant-lot sales in 2025 to report a reliable median for Ormond Beach [1] |
| Owners who live elsewhere | 14% of vacant lots have an owner mailing address outside Florida (most often NJ, PA, AZ) [1] |
| Flagler County, not the city | The city of Ormond Beach is in Volusia County. The Ormond Beach mailing addresses on this page sit across the county line in unincorporated Flagler County, so the city of Ormond Beach has no zoning or permitting say over these lots; Flagler County does. [2],[3] |
| Who issues zoning and permits | Flagler County's Growth Management department reviews zoning, rezonings and land development for unincorporated Flagler County under its Land Development Code. Its Central Permitting office issues the building, electrical, plumbing and other trade permits. [3],[4] |
| Permit fees and exemptions | Flagler County charges impact fees and Growth Management fees on new construction. Work under $7,500 on a single-family home can qualify for a permit exemption if it involves no electrical, plumbing, structural, mechanical or gas work. [4] |
| Septic permits | A new or repaired septic system here needs a permit from the Florida Department of Health in Flagler County. Since July 1, 2022, owners may also hire a private provider to do the required septic inspections instead of using the county health department. [5] |
| Private wells need a state permit | The Florida Department of Health in Flagler County issues well-construction permits for private wells under 6 inches, under an interagency deal with the St. Johns River Water Management District, whose e-Permitting system handles the paperwork. [6] |
| No county water or sewer utility listed | Flagler County's own list of county departments and services does not include a county water or sewer utility; county government directs water, septic and well questions to the Florida Department of Health in Flagler County instead. [7] |
| A state park a few miles south | Bulow Creek State Park, a 3,230-acre park run by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, sits about five miles north of Ormond Beach on Old Dixie Highway, next to the Atlantic Ocean. Protected land this close limits nearby rezoning. [10] |
| What happens if taxes go unpaid | Flagler County's tax certificate sale runs on or before June 1 for the prior year's delinquent taxes, and an unsold certificate expires after 7 years. A holder can apply for a tax deed once two years have passed since the issuance date. [8],[9] |
| Vacant lots that got a home on the tax roll in 2025 | 140 recorded with new-construction evidence. [1] |
| Years of lot supply at the 2025 building pace | 3.6 years; simple ratio, not a forecast. [1] |
| 2026 so far (Jan-Jun) | County-level for Flagler County: 220 recorded vacant-lot sales; median $70,000. [1] |

What moves the price in Ormond Beach
Well and septic, permitted through the state health department
Flagler County's own department list has no water or sewer utility, so Flagler County government sends water, well and septic questions to the Florida Department of Health in Flagler County. That office permits private wells under 6 inches in diameter through an interagency deal with the St. Johns River Water Management District, and it permits new or repaired septic systems directly, with private providers now allowed to do the septic inspections since mid-2022. A buyer of a vacant lot here has to plan on a well and a septic system rather than a county hookup, and that affects what it costs to build. [6],[5]
Flagler County's permit and impact-fee process
Flagler County's Growth Management department reviews zoning and land development, and its Central Permitting office issues building, trade and right-of-way permits for unincorporated Flagler County, which covers this part of the Ormond Beach mailing area. New construction carries Flagler's published impact fees and Growth Management fees. Small jobs under $7,500 on a single-family home can skip a permit if no electrical, plumbing, structural, mechanical or gas work is involved, but most new building on a vacant lot will not qualify for that exemption. [3],[4]
What a lot like this is worth on paper
The property appraiser's tax-roll just value for vacant lots in this part of the Ormond Beach mailing area has a median of $71,000, with the middle half between $60,000–$103,000. That just value is a tax-roll number used for assessment, not a sale price. Only 3 arm's-length vacant-lot sales met our 2025 sale rule here, too few to publish a reliable 2025 sale median or price range for this specific area. [1]
Conservation land limits how this area can grow
Bulow Creek State Park is a 3,230-acre park about five miles north of the city of Ormond Beach, run by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, next to the Atlantic Ocean on Old Dixie Highway. State park land next to a growing area takes density and clearing options off the table for the land around it permanently, unlike a private wooded lot that could eventually be developed. That is one more reason the vacant lots here tend to stay vacant longer than lots closer to Palm Coast or Daytona Beach. [10]
Common situations
Selling land in Ormond Beach in these situations
You inherited a lot and never saw it
Yes. You can sell a lot you inherited even if you never visited it. These Flagler County parcels sit across the county line from the city of Ormond Beach, so the lot's mailing address can say Ormond Beach even though Flagler County, not the city, controls what can be built on it. Parcel Buyers closes through an independent title company, and the title path determines what is needed before closing. [2]
The lot has no well, septic or power run to it
Yes. We buy vacant lots with no well, septic system or power hookup. A private well under 6 inches in diameter needs a Florida Department of Health in Flagler County permit issued under an agreement with the St. Johns River Water Management District, and a new septic system needs its own health department permit. We check utilities, access and title on every parcel before offering, so a bare lot is not a problem. [6],[5]
You live out of state and manage the lot from a distance
Yes. 14% of vacant lots in this part of the Ormond Beach mailing area belong to an owner with a mailing address outside Florida, New Jersey being the single largest out-of-state group. You can sign electronically, close by mail through an independent title company, and be paid by check or wire without traveling to Florida. [1]
Property taxes or a fee have fallen behind
Yes. You can still sell if taxes have fallen behind. Flagler County's tax certificate sale runs on or before June 1 for the prior year's unpaid taxes, and a certificate holder can apply for a tax deed once two years have passed since April 1 of the issuance year. Liens or back taxes can be paid out of the sale proceeds at closing, with the seller's consent. [8],[9]

Questions
Selling land in Ormond Beach: common questions
Is my lot actually in the city of Ormond Beach if the mailing address says Ormond Beach?
No. The city of Ormond Beach is in Volusia County. The lots on this page carry an Ormond Beach mailing address but sit across the county line in unincorporated Flagler County, so Flagler County's Growth Management department, not the city, handles zoning and permits here.
Do I need a well permit before I can sell my Flagler County lot?
No, not to sell. A well permit is only needed before drilling a well, issued by the Florida Department of Health in Flagler County under an agreement with the St. Johns River Water Management District. Parcel Buyers checks utilities, access and title itself before making a written offer within 24 hours.
Who do I contact for a building permit on a vacant lot here?
Flagler County, not the city of Ormond Beach. Flagler County's Central Permitting office, under Growth Management, issues building, trade and land development permits for this unincorporated part of the county, along with its published impact fee schedule.
What happens if I stop paying property taxes on this lot?
Flagler County issues a tax certificate against the property on or before June 1 for the prior year's unpaid taxes, and the certificate expires after 7 years if unresolved. A holder can apply for a tax deed once two years have passed since April 1 of the certificate's issuance year, but you can sell before that point and pay back taxes from the proceeds.
Will building near Bulow Creek State Park ever be possible on my lot?
The park itself will not be developed; it is permanently protected state land run by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection about five miles north of Ormond Beach. That does not block building on a privately owned vacant lot nearby, but it does mean that specific park acreage will never be available for denser development around it.
Can I sell my lot if I live in another state?
Yes. 14% of vacant-lot owners in this part of the Ormond Beach mailing area already have an out-of-state mailing address. You can sign electronically, close by mail through an independent title company, and be paid by check or wire without coming to Florida.
Owner resources
Guides for your situation
- Can You Sell Land With Back Taxes in Florida?
Yes. Florida land with back property taxes can often be sold if closing can redeem the tax lien before the tax-deed cutoff. With the seller's consent, the title company can use sale proceeds for the approved payoff. Move quickly: taxes generally become delinquent April 1,[1][2] and redemption ends once a tax-deed buyer makes full payment to the clerk.[4][7]
- Can You Build on a Vacant Lot?
Maybe. A vacant lot is buildable only if the proposed use fits the rules that apply to that parcel and the site can satisfy access, utility, environmental, and permit requirements. Start with the local planning or zoning office, confirm that the parcel is a legal lot, and get a written parcel-specific answer. A zoning label or tax parcel number alone is not approval to build.[1][2]
- How to Sell Land During a Divorce
Florida land can be sold during a divorce when the people with authority to convey title sign and the sale follows every applicable agreement and court order. Divorce law may treat land as marital even when only one spouse appears on the deed.[1][2] If ownership, signing authority, or the division of proceeds is unsettled, have a Florida attorney and the closing title company resolve those issues before closing.

How we made this page
Parcel Buyers is a land-buying company based in Florida. We buy vacant land directly from owners and publish these local pages so owners can see what land in their area is doing before they sell, to us or anyone else. We count the tax-roll figures ourselves from state data, take local rules and fees from the official sources listed below, and use AI tools to help research and draft the text. Every number links to its source, and we update the page when the data changes.
Method and sources
Tax-roll figures cover the Flagler County part of the Ormond Beach mailing area, across the county line from Ormond Beach itself in Volusia County; the Ormond Beach page counts the Volusia County lots. Source [1] is our own count of the Florida Department of Revenue's 2026 preliminary property tax roll: "vacant residential" means land-use code 000; lot sizes use the land square footage on the roll; values are the county property appraiser's just (market) value as of January 1, 2026; sale prices count only arm's-length sales of a single lot that was vacant when it sold and was still vacant on January 1, 2026 (bulk and multi-parcel deeds removed). Page updated October 30, 2026. Exact cross-roll matching found that 20.4% of current vacant lots lacked a unique prior-roll match; parcel splits, combinations, renumbering, and missing IDs are not guessed. The reviewed 2026 recorded-sale window runs from January through June 2026; unreviewed recent sales are excluded. County-level figures are used on this place page.
