I wrote an article about river ranch to explain to people purchaseing it on ebay that it is not developable.  I have gotten tons of e-mails from people who have aquired lands in paper subdivisions here in Polk County.  Paper Subdivisions are subdivisons that exsist only on paper and most time has no acess and is primarily worhtless.  The best way I explain to find this out is to look at the DOR use code and if it is 9910, it is classified as inacessable swampland, and conservation land and is likely never to be developed.  The most frightening thing I have found as I done research is what I recently discovered in the Imerial Acres (Estates), Groveland Estates, and Aspen Meadows. 

If you have bought, own or look at buying property in Imperial Acres, groveland estates or Aspen Meadows beware.  This land is being protected by a man who is using this land to lease to cattle ranchers and using to rent to people to hunt on.  If you go to this property he will meet you, armed with weapons, and tell you that you are trespassing and to never come on your land again. 

He is also trying to take title to land under a law called adverse possesion.  This law says he uses it and claims it and after 7 years he can take title to your land.  There is more to the law and if you google it you can gt the full law.  If you own, bought ot are thinking about buying land in this area, you should contact Det. Wright at the Polk County Agricultural division of the Sheriff's department to try and preserve your property rights to your land.

If you own land there and want to know more information, you can contact me and I will try help you locate you land or whatever you need.
