Escambia Planning Board to hear rezoning for 540-acre Outlying Fields site in Beulah
The Escambia County Planning Board was set to hear rezoning and land-use changes on October 6 for the former Navy Outlying Landing Field 8 next to the Navy Federal Credit Union campus. The roughly 540-acre plan includes 1,000 to 1,500 housing units, 23 acres for health-related facilities along Nine Mile Road, retail and restaurants, and an Employment, Technology and Innovation district. County staff found the changes consistent with the comprehensive plan, and FDOT expects no added trip generation.
What it may mean for the marketThe plan would add housing, commercial space and employer land in the Beulah area near Nine Mile Road, which could change local retail access, commute patterns and housing supply. The site is about 7 miles west of River Gardens.

Pensacola mayor says new airport terminal construction starts next week
At a September 17 briefing, Mayor D.C. Reeves said the notice to proceed for the new terminal at Pensacola International Airport would be issued the following week, with site preparation starting shortly after. He described it as a nine-figure investment. A separate 600-space parking expansion still needs construction funding.
What it may mean for the marketTerminal construction signals added air-travel capacity at the airport and construction activity near the airport corridor. The site is about 4 miles south of River Gardens.

The River Gardens buying strategy.
If we were buying in River Gardens today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in River Gardens.
A closer look at the River Gardens market
At a median of $231 per square foot, River Gardens prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.
The trailing-12-month median down 31% year over year. Homes that do trade take a median 57 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in River Gardens. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
