| Vacant residential lots | 54 parcels classified vacant residential on the 2026 tax roll [1] |
|---|---|
| Most common lot size | Standard city lot (7,000–9,000 sq ft): 19% of vacant lots; next, quarter-acre lot at 17%. Median lot: 0.27 acre (11,890 sq ft). [1] |
| Typical assessed value | $13,300 median just (market) value for a vacant lot; the middle half fall between $1,100 and $51,200 [1] |
| Recent lot sale prices | Too few arm's-length vacant-lot sales in 2025 to report a reliable median for No Name Key [1] |
| National Key Deer Refuge | National Key Deer Refuge has rustic fire-road trails on No Name Key through hardwood hammock and pine rockland habitat. The refuge was established in 1957 and protects habitat for more than 20 threatened or endangered species. [9],[10] |
| County jurisdiction | No Name Key is governed as unincorporated Monroe County. The County Building Department coordinates planning, environmental, structural, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, floodplain and fire review for development permits. [2] |
| ROGO penalty | Monroe County uses a competitive Rate of Growth Ordinance for residential permits. Its published scoring gives development on No Name Key a 10-point penalty, making allocation status a central buildability question. [3] |
| Island-specific tier system | The County's Tier II designation exists only on Big Pine Key and No Name Key. Tier I identifies environmentally sensitive land, while Tier III identifies infill; the parcel's mapped tier affects review and scoring. [4] |
| Regional wastewater service area | FKAA's Cudjoe Regional Wastewater Service Area runs from mile marker 17 on Lower Sugarloaf Key to mile marker 33 on No Name Key. It covers 56 square miles and 18,055 parcels; less than half are developable. [5] |

| Flood construction standard | Under the Florida Building Code flood rules Monroe County posts, a home's lowest floor in Zone A, or its lowest horizontal structural member in Zone V or Coastal A, must sit at base flood elevation plus 1 foot. [8] |
| Vacant lots that got a home on the tax roll in 2025 | 0 recorded with new-construction evidence. [1] |
| 2026 so far (Jan-Jun) | County-level for Monroe County: 43 recorded vacant-lot sales; median $268,000. [1] |

What moves the price in No Name Key
ROGO and tier status can outweigh ordinary lot size
ROGO and environmental tier status can determine whether a No Name Key lot has a realistic permit path. Monroe County awards residential allocations competitively and publishes a 10-point penalty for development on No Name Key. Its tier system also treats the Big Pine and No Name area differently from the rest of unincorporated Monroe County: Tier II exists only on these two keys, Tier I marks environmentally sensitive land and Tier III marks infill. The tax roll's median parcel size of 0.27 acres does not answer any of those questions. A buyer needs the parcel's tier, ROGO history, habitat constraints and current allocation rules before treating it as a homesite. [3],[4],[1]
Central systems reach the area, but hookups stay parcel-specific
No Name Key is inside FKAA's central sewer service area, but a vacant parcel still needs a connection check. FKAA says the Cudjoe Regional Wastewater Service Area runs from mile marker 17 on Lower Sugarloaf Key to mile marker 33 on No Name Key, the service area's eastern end. The whole service area spans 56 square miles, contains 18,055 parcels and uses nearly 130 miles of collection pipe. Those regional figures do not establish frontage, meter status, grinder equipment, lateral installation, capacity or hookup cost for one lot. Where a septic system is proposed instead, the Florida Department of Health's county office issues the permit and needs a site evaluation of the lot. [5],[6]
Flood elevation and habitat review shape the usable footprint
Flood and habitat rules shape the usable building envelope on No Name Key. The Florida Building Code flood rules that Monroe County posts put a home's lowest floor in Zone A at base flood elevation plus 1 foot; in Zone V and Coastal A, the bottom of the lowest horizontal structural member follows that same standard. The County's substantial-improvement rule uses a 50% threshold for existing structures. Separately, the Fish and Wildlife Service says about 75% of all Key deer live on Big Pine and No Name Keys, which makes habitat review important. A parcel's FEMA zone, elevation, Coastal A or LiMWA status, wetland conditions and buildable upland must be checked directly rather than inferred from its island name. [8],[9]
A thin sale sample cannot establish a market trend
The qualifying 2025 vacant-lot sale sample is too small to establish a No Name Key price trend. The 2026 tax roll reports a median property-appraiser just value of $13,300, but that is a tax-roll valuation rather than a guaranteed resale price or a Parcel Buyers offer. A cash offer must account for ROGO prospects, tier and habitat review, legal access, flood elevation, utility connection, any wastewater assessment and title. That parcel-level diligence matters more than extrapolating from an isolated annual sale, especially where two similar-looking lots can have very different development paths. [1],[3],[4],[7]
Common situations
Selling land in No Name Key in these situations
You inherited land and do not know its tier or ROGO history
Yes. You can sell inherited No Name Key land even when its development history is unclear. Monroe County's Building Department coordinates environmental, floodplain and building review, while the ROGO and tier systems govern the residential allocation path. Parcel Buyers checks the available parcel, permit, access and title records before offering. An independent title company handles closing, and the title search determines which estate or heir documents are required. [2],[3],[4]
You are uncertain about sewer charges or connections
Yes. You can sell while the wastewater facts are being confirmed. FKAA includes No Name Key in the Cudjoe Regional service area, and the Tax Collector lists several Cudjoe-area non-ad-valorem assessment districts. Neither fact proves that every vacant lot has a physical connection or the same annual balance. The current tax bill, FKAA service information and any County payoff should be matched to the parcel. Confirmed liens or back charges can be paid from sale proceeds at closing with the seller's consent. [5],[7]
You live outside Florida and have never visited
Yes. You can sell without visiting No Name Key. We can review the County's permit, ROGO, tier and flood information while an independent title company handles identity, title and a remote closing. Signing may be electronic or mailed as the title company directs, and the seller chooses the available disbursement method. Parcel Buyers pays closing costs. Our property inspection remains the only contingency, and a rejected parcel does not create a bill for the owner. [2],[3],[4]

Questions
Selling land in No Name Key: common questions
Is No Name Key an incorporated city?
No. No Name Key is governed as part of unincorporated Monroe County. The County Building Department intakes and issues development permits and coordinates planning, environmental, structural, utility-trade, floodplain and fire review.
Does owning a zoned lot guarantee a house permit?
No. A residential permit can require a competitive ROGO allocation, and the County's published scoring applies a 10-point penalty to development on No Name Key. The last market-rate ROGO period closed July 13, 2026, and the County expects the next one to open about July 13, 2027. Tier and habitat status also matter.
Does every No Name Key lot use a well and septic system?
No. FKAA's Cudjoe Regional Wastewater Service Area reaches mile marker 33 on No Name Key. That does not prove that a particular vacant lot has a lateral or a paid connection. If a septic system is proposed, the Florida Department of Health's county office issues the permit and needs a site evaluation.
Can an empty lot have a wastewater assessment?
Yes, depending on its district and assessment roll. The Tax Collector lists Cudjoe Regional Wastewater Inner Area, Cudjoe Inner Islands Supplemental and Cudjoe Outer Islands assessments. Use the current parcel bill and any payoff record to identify the applicable charge instead of assuming one island-wide amount.
How fast can I sell a No Name Key lot?
A written cash offer is ready within 24 hours. After a signed purchase agreement, closing through an independent title company is typically about 10 days, subject to the title search. There are no fees or commissions, and Parcel Buyers covers closing costs.

Guides for your situation
- 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.
- Can You Sell Land With a Lien?
Yes. Land with a lien can often be sold, but signing a deed does not by itself erase a valid claim. The lien may need to be paid, released, discharged, or otherwise resolved under the law that applies. With the seller's consent, an approved payoff can come from sale proceeds at closing. If the balance or lien is wrong, dispute it before closing and require proof of the cure.
- Water, Sewer, Septic, and Wells on Vacant Lots
A vacant lot may use public water, a private well, public sewer, or an onsite septic system, but nearby pipes and neighboring homes do not prove what the parcel can use. Ask each utility for a written availability decision, ask the permitting office whether connection is mandatory, and obtain a qualified site evaluation before saying septic will fit. Keep every response, permit, plan, test, and receipt.

Method and sources
Tax-roll figures cover parcels whose property address city is No Name Key. 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 5, 2026. 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.
