Bottom line

The prior brief was wrong: its 0.22-acre figure came from a different property record. The September 12, 2026 Property Appraiser export identifies the 821 Fifth Avenue South parcel as 0.31 acres and owned by NECO 821 5TH AVE SOUTH LLC; the official-record index shows an $18.8 million 2025 deed and later financing, easement and telecom filings.

Why it matters

A wrong parcel baseline can distort density, valuation and diligence. The corrected record establishes present record ownership and several material recorded interests, but it still does not establish title quality, development rights, permit completion or investment suitability.

Verified public record

What the cited records establish.

These statements are limited to the documents below and the stated review date.

  1. The Collier County Property Appraiser's September 12, 2026 data export identifies NECO 821 5TH AVE SOUTH LLC as owner and reports 0.31 acres, a 12,423-square-foot building built in 1968, and lots 19–22 plus one-half of a vacated alley.
  2. The same preliminary 2026 assessment record reports $17,364,457 of just value: $6,624,934 land and $10,739,523 improvements.
  3. A deed recorded August 4, 2025 transferred the property from Fifth Avenue South LLC to NECO 821 5TH AVE SOUTH LLC for $18.8 million (Instrument 6713628).
  4. The official-record index also lists assignment 6713629, portfolio mortgage 6718211, UCC 6718212, a May 26, 2026 easement recorded as Instrument 6829079 and an AT&T notice of commencement recorded June 15, 2026 as Instrument 6838059.
  5. The earlier 0.22-acre statement is retracted; it was not the acreage of the 821 Fifth Avenue South parcel.

Still unresolved

What this review does not establish.

Unknowns stay visible instead of being filled with assumptions.

  • The full terms, priority and current status of the mortgage, UCC filing, easement and any other title exceptions
  • Current zoning interpretation, lawful use, open approvals, permits, inspections and certificates
  • Whether the AT&T notice of commencement work is complete, closed or connected to a broader redevelopment plan
  • Flood, environmental, structural, utility, access and other physical constraints
  • Current leases, operating condition, income, expenses and investment value
Next public trigger

Obtain the recorded instruments and the City's current permit and zoning file. A satisfaction, release, new deed, permit issuance, inspection, certificate or land-use filing could change the conclusion.
