Land for Sale in Lima, OH
Vacant lots, raw acreage, recreational land, and ready-to-build sites across Lima, Allen County, and West Central Ohio — refreshed continuously from the MLS.
Whether you're planning a custom home, looking for hunting ground, scouting a development site, or adding to a family farm, the LV5 Real Estate Team helps buyers find the right piece of land across Allen, Auglaize, Putnam, Hancock, Van Wert, Mercer, and Hardin counties. We work with local surveyors, perc-test contractors, well drillers, and lenders so you go in with eyes wide open — not just a parcel number.
Land buyers move differently than home buyers. Zoning, road access, soil type, utilities, easements, flood plains, mineral rights, and crop leases all matter — and a missed detail at closing can cost thousands. LV5 Real Estate Team reviews every parcel against the county GIS, auditor records, and FEMA maps before you write an offer.

Frequently asked
How much down do I need to buy land in Ohio?
Raw land loans typically require 25–50% down with 5–20 year terms and rates 1–2% above home mortgages. USDA Rural Development loans, owner financing, and local-bank lot loans can offer better terms — especially if you're planning to build within 12 months. We refer to several lenders who actually fund Ohio land deals.
What should I check before buying vacant land?
At minimum: zoning + permitted uses, road frontage and access type, utility availability (electric, gas, water, sewer or perc/well requirements), flood zone, recorded easements, mineral and oil/gas rights, current crop leases, and the most recent survey. We pull all of this before you sign a purchase agreement.
Can I build a house on any lot?
No. Even with road frontage and a clean deed, you need (1) zoning that allows a single-family home, (2) a passing perc test if there's no public sewer, (3) a viable well location or municipal water tap, and (4) compliance with the township or city setback rules. Some Allen County parcels look beautiful but are unbuildable — we catch that early.
Do you help with farmland and recreational land?
Yes. We handle tillable acreage, CRP-enrolled ground, timber tracts, hunting parcels, and combination land. For working farms we also coordinate with Farm Credit, USDA FSA, and local ag lenders.
