Area notes

Gurabo is an inland municipio in the central-southern foothills, roughly 15–20 km southwest of Humacao. It sits above sea level with moderate rolling terrain but no dramatic peaks; climate is tropical with year-round humidity and seasonal rainfall typical of interior PR. Proximity to El Yunque is moderate (roughly 30–40 km north). Urban Developable zoning suggests it lies in or near a growth corridor, not isolated backcountry.

Buildability

Urban Developable zoning (UR) typically implies municipal infrastructure corridor or planned-unit expectations rather than straightforward single-family build rights. No flood constraints noted, but acreage and zoning class suggest formal subdivision or commercial track; due diligence required on actual residential buildability and infrastructure access.

Questions to verify

• Clarify exact buildability for single-family residential under UR zoning—does it require subdivision approval, infrastructure dedication, or master-plan compliance?
• Confirm access rights and road status (Route 30 & 203 frontage vs. private driveway); verify no right-of-way encumbrances.
• Obtain formal survey and confirm no title liens, tax arrears, or prior development agreements.
• Verify water and sewer availability or requirements; confirm utility infrastructure access.
• Confirm 'No Flood Area' designation with FEMA and local flood maps; check for seasonal drainage or agricultural restrictions.
• Visit in person and assess terrain, vegetation, and views to barrio; verify no contamination or industrial proximity.

What the web found

The ClasificadosOnline listing is confirmed but contains a acreage discrepancy: the listing shows 168,809 acres (which is implausibly large—nearly the size of Gurabo municipality itself), whereas the original broker page states 41.71 acres in the property specifications. Comparable buildable land sales in Gurabo range from $65,000–$400,000+ depending on size and location, with the 41.71-acre property at $417,100 falling within market range for raw land. No evidence of the same property on Realtor.com, Zillow, Point2, or major agent sites; agent/seller contact information was not accessible through web search.
