How to read this record#

This notice documents intended work, not a verified construction start, completion, occupancy or home sale. Newly discovered does not mean newly recorded.

The block and lot identify the mapped parcel; the parenthesized developer number is retained separately. Notices may repeat properties and cannot be counted as unique homes.

The package labeled October 31 was checked November 1, 2026 at 04:08 UTC. Its broader “Okeechobee community” search, in both party directions with no date or document-type restriction, reports 256 result rows covering 255 unique instruments, with county verification displayed through October 28 despite including October 29 recordings. It adds 27 instruments to the earlier 228: 16 also found by the exact-name search and 11 older filings found only by the broader search. An extra party row for already-known instrument 202522001185 is not another document. This is not a search of every related entity or every county filing.
