Can You Live in an RV on Florida Land?

Can You Live in an RV on Florida Land? Here’s the Truth.

We get this question almost every single day:

“Can I live in an RV on land I buy from you?”

And our answer is: maybe — but not always.

If you’re dreaming of parking your rig under the stars, living off-grid, and owning your freedom, we love that. But here’s the real-talk: it depends on the county.

🏕️ Every County Has Different Rules

Some counties (like Putnam County) allow RV living up to 180 days per year with a permit — especially if you’re working toward building something. Others, like Charlotte or Sarasota, won’t allow it at all unless you’re in an RV park or zoned for it.

Zoning categories like AG, RR, or RMH may allow more flexibility.
But "vacant residential" land often comes with limits.

🚧 What to Ask Before You Buy

• Is the land zoned for RVs or mobile homes?

• How long can I stay at a time?

• Do I need a septic system, well, or electric hookup?

• Will the county let me live there before the land is paid off? (Hint: with us — you need to own it free and clear first.)

✅ Here’s What We Recommend

If you’re seriously considering RV life on raw land:

• Call the county planning department. (We’ll give you the APN.)

• Ask about “temporary living in an RV” on vacant land.

• Make sure you have a plan for water, waste, and electricity (or solar).

You’re not just buying dirt — you’re buying potential.
And we want to make sure it fits the life you’re building.
