EPA plans mile-long underground wall at Koppers Superfund site in Gainesville
The EPA presented a plan to the Gainesville City Commission for a mile-long, 65-foot-deep underground wall at the 90-acre Koppers site at 200 NW 23rd Ave. Construction could start this fall and run to mid-2027, and an information session is set for Oct. 21. The site will be cleaned to commercial and industrial standards only.
What it may mean for the marketThe cleanup sets long-term land use limits on a large north Gainesville parcel and brings construction activity there through 2027. The project is about 6 miles east of The Links, elsewhere in Alachua County.

Gainesville Plan Board recommends denying land use change for Cottages at Depot Park
The City Plan Board voted 4-3 to recommend denying a new land use and Urban 6 zoning for about 2 acres at the Cottages at Depot Park, which has about 37 existing units. The zoning would have allowed a drive-thru by right. The City Commission makes the final decision, and current zoning already allows redevelopment.
What it may mean for the marketThe outcome affects whether a small near-downtown parcel can be redeveloped at higher density with commercial uses. The project is about 6 miles east of The Links, elsewhere in Alachua County.

The The Links buying strategy.
If we were buying in The Links 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.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
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 The Links.
A closer look at the The Links market
At a median of $199 per square foot, The Links prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.
Inventory runs at 28.8 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market and the trailing-12-month median down 13% year over year. Homes that do trade take a median 121 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in The Links. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
