Franklin County Land & Development Real Estate

Land & Development Real Estate in Franklin County, Pennsylvania

I work with buyers, sellers, and investors seeking vacant land throughout Franklin County, PA, including residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, recreational, and transitional properties. Located along Pennsylvania’s southern border and anchored by key transportation corridors, Franklin County offers a balanced mix of farmland, growing communities, and industrial and logistics-driven land opportunities.

My role is to help clients understand not just what a parcel is today, but how it can be developed, used, or positioned for long-term value.

 

Residential Vacant Land

Residential vacant land in Franklin County includes in-town and borough lots, suburban parcels in growth areas, and larger tracts suitable for custom homes or residential development. I help buyers evaluate zoning, density allowances, public utilities or on-lot well and septic feasibility, access, and site conditions.

For sellers, I position residential land based on buildability, location, and demand driven by population growth and regional employment.

 

Commercial Vacant Land

Commercial vacant land in Franklin County is commonly located along major corridors and town centers, including areas near Interstate 81, U.S. Route 30, and Route 11. These parcels may support retail, office, medical, hospitality, or mixed-use development. I assist buyers and investors with zoning analysis, access and visibility considerations, and market feasibility, while helping sellers clearly communicate permitted uses and development potential.

 

Industrial Vacant Land

Industrial land is a key component of Franklin County’s economy, supporting warehousing, distribution, manufacturing, logistics, and flex space, particularly near Interstate 81 and regional rail access.

I help clients evaluate infrastructure capacity, site layout, environmental considerations, and transportation access, and I market industrial land to users and investors seeking efficient, well-connected sites.

 

Agricultural Vacant Land

Agricultural land remains a defining feature of Franklin County, with properties used for row crops, orchards, livestock, and diversified farming operations. Agricultural vacant land also attracts buyers and investors seeking stable, long-term land ownership.

I guide buyers through zoning, Clean and Green eligibility, soil productivity, water access, and agricultural preservation considerations, while helping sellers connect with farmers and land investors.

 

Recreational Vacant Land

Recreational vacant land in Franklin County includes wooded tracts, mountain parcels, and open space, particularly in the county’s western and northern areas. These parcels appeal to buyers seeking outdoor recreation, privacy, or conservation opportunities. I help buyers understand access, permitted uses, and development limitations, and I market recreational land based on location, usability, and long-term value.

 

Transitional and Redevelopment Land

Transitional land in Franklin County may include underutilized commercial properties, former industrial sites, or parcels positioned for future growth or redevelopment. These opportunities can offer upside but require careful due diligence.

I analyze zoning flexibility, municipal comprehensive plans, infrastructure access, and market conditions to help developers and investors assess feasibility and risk.
