Places the parcel in Buckner within Lafayette County; confirm the exact parcel outline through county mapping or a survey.
The supplied data shows two APN formats, so county records should be checked for an exact match.
A half-acre can be useful for a small residential concept, but setbacks, easements, drainage, and usable area matter.
The low entry price is the main purchase hook; budget separately for closing, recording, utility, permit, and site-verification costs.
This is an important use clue, but it does not by itself prove buildability or approve a specific structure.
Helpful listing-side indicators, but legal access, frontage, provider availability, tap fees, and connection points still need confirmation.
Confirm deed language, current tax bill, assessed value, and any unpaid charges through the appropriate records before closing.
Buckner and Lafayette County Setting
General context: Buckner is a small incorporated town in Lafayette County, Arkansas. Census context shows Lafayette County had 6,308 residents at the 2020 Census and an estimated 5,888 residents in 2025, so buyers should expect a small, low-density county market rather than a high-volume suburban setting.
Parcel-specific context: the listing places this 0.5-acre lot on South Main Street in Buckner, with coordinates 33.353535, -93.4350031. Those coordinates are useful for map review, but the final boundary should come from county GIS records, deed records, or a survey.
Risk context: FEMA information indicates Buckner has an effective flood hazard study, and USDA NRCS soil resources are relevant for Lafayette County area land review. These sources do not determine this parcel’s usability on their own, but they point to flood, drainage, soil, and site-condition questions worth checking.
Potential Uses and Buyer Fit
This lot is best approached as a small residential parcel candidate or low-cost land hold, not as a guaranteed ready-to-build site. The listing’s Residential zoning is helpful, but actual use depends on local rules and site-specific conditions.
Any plan involving a home, manufactured home, mobile home, RV, or utility connection should be confirmed before purchase. Ask about zoning, setbacks, minimum dwelling standards, driveway permits, utility taps, sewer or septic requirements, floodplain limits, and any recorded restrictions.
- Future residential homesite candidate, if zoning, setbacks, permits, legal access, utilities, and site conditions support the intended structure.
- Manufactured or mobile-home possibility, only if local rules and permitting officials allow that use on this parcel.
- Temporary RV or recreational use, only if ordinances, sanitation rules, utility access, and time-limit rules allow it.
- Neighboring-lot expansion, yard space, or light personal use, if ownership boundaries and local restrictions support the plan.
- Long-term hold for a buyer seeking a very low entry price, with taxes, title, access, and resale demand verified first.
Due Diligence Checklist Before Buying
Use the listing details to focus your research, then confirm the facts with official records and written responses from the right offices or providers.
Match the parcel number and legal description
Search county assessor, GIS, and recorder records using parcel number 700-00478-00001 and APN 700-00478-0000. Confirm ownership, legal description, parcel shape, acreage, and whether the two formats refer to the same record.
Confirm zoning and allowed structures
The listing states Residential zoning. Ask the local zoning or building authority about permitted uses, setbacks, minimum lot or dwelling standards, manufactured-home rules, RV limits, and any overlay or subdivision restrictions.
Verify utilities in writing
Treat “city utilities available” as a prompt for research, not a service guarantee. Confirm water, sewer, electric, and any other needed services, including provider names, distance to connection, meter or tap fees, and whether service is currently at the parcel.
Confirm legal access and frontage
The listing states paved road access. Verify that the lot has legal access to South Main Street or another public right-of-way, and ask about frontage width, driveway permits, and maintenance responsibility.
Review flood maps and drainage
Because Buckner has an effective flood hazard study, check official flood mapping for the exact parcel. Also review aerial imagery, nearby ditches or low areas, and drainage patterns before planning improvements.
Check soils and septic assumptions
USDA NRCS soil information can help flag drainage or site limitations. If public sewer is not confirmed, ask about septic feasibility, soil requirements, and any health-department approval process.
Confirm taxes, deed, and closing costs
The listing shows $55 in taxes and a Warranty Deed. Verify the current tax bill, any unpaid charges, deed language, recording fees, and transfer process before sending funds or closing.
The selected official Census source helps frame Lafayette County’s small population base and low-density setting. Pair that market context with county parcel records, utility confirmations, flood-map review, soil research, and local permit guidance for property-specific decisions.
Property video
The listing includes a property video for additional visual context. Use it as a starting point, then verify boundaries, access, utilities, and local rules independently.

Bottom Line
This Buckner parcel stands out because it combines a very low $969 cash price with a half-acre lot size, Residential zoning listed, paved road access noted, city utilities available in the listing, and a Warranty Deed.
The opportunity is straightforward, but the decision should be verification-first. The most important checks are the parcel/APN match, legal access, allowed use, utility connection cost, flood and drainage status, soil conditions, and current taxes.
If those items line up with your intended use and budget, LC26359 could be worth a closer look as a small residential land purchase in Lafayette County.
