George County, MS
Land for Sale in George County, MS
George County sits in far south Mississippi on the Pascagoula River, with Lucedale as the county seat and communities like Basin spread across the county. Access runs through US-98, MS-26, and MS-198, and rural property here typically shows up as Pascagoula river-bottom hardwoods with upland planted pine and pasture. Buyers come looking for hunting and recreational tracts, timberland, waterfront property, and rural homesites — Crew Land Co. represents both sides of those transactions.

Local Land Market
How land trades in George County
George County trades in a mix of hunting and recreational tracts, timberland, waterfront property, and rural homesites. Most of the rural ground is Pascagoula river-bottom hardwoods with upland planted pine and pasture, and demand comes from hunters looking for deer and turkey ground, timberland investors, local families building rural homesites, and buyers who want water frontage.
Property values in George County depend on the practical stuff — road frontage and access, utilities, standing timber, water features on the tract, terrain, and how close the property sits to Lucedale and US-98. Two tracts with the same acreage can price very differently once those factors are stacked up honestly.
Because Crew Land Co. represents buyers and sellers across MS and AL, we work from real comparable sales rather than hypothetical numbers. We won't overprice a tract to win a listing, and we won't push a buyer past what a property actually supports.
Land Types
What kind of land shows up in George County
Hunting and recreational land
Deer and turkey hunting drives a lot of the demand for tracts in George County. Buyers look for good access, mixed cover, and food or edge habitat — most often planted pine with hardwood drains or pasture openings.
Timberland and investment property
Planted pine plantations, mixed pine and hardwood, and older longer-rotation stands all trade in George County. The right buyer depends on stand age, thinning history, and how much of the value sits in standing timber versus land base.
Waterfront and river property
Frontage on Pascagoula River adds value when the access is real and usable. Some tracts sell mostly for the water; others get a lift from a good creek running through them.
Rural homesites
Small acreage homesites — enough for a house, a shop, and a little elbow room — are a steady segment in George County. Utility availability, road frontage, and septic feasibility are the practical questions on those tracts.
Buying Land
Buying land in George County
Rural buying decisions in George County come down to real, verifiable questions — not the marketing photo. Before Crew Land Co. writes an offer for a buyer we walk through the same items we'd want a seller to disclose up front:
- Legal access — deeded road frontage or a recorded easement, not "everybody drives across the neighbor."
- Boundaries and survey — what's flagged, what's guessed, and whether a new survey is worth the money before closing.
- Utilities and septic — power at the road, water availability, and soil suitability for a septic system if there's a homesite intent.
- Flood, wetlands, and drainage — what the FEMA map, NWI, and boots on the ground say about wet areas and drainage in George County terrain.
- Timber condition — stand age, thinning history, and whether recent activity affected value or road access.
- Existing leases — hunting lease, cattle lease, cell tower, pipeline, or timber lease that transfers with the tract.
- Mineral rights — what conveys with the surface and what doesn't.
- Improvements — barns, deer camps, ponds, food plots, and roads that hold real value versus what's cosmetic.
We ask these questions on every deal. If something isn't clear, we say so before you're under contract instead of after.
Selling Land
Selling land in George County
When Crew Land Co. lists land in George County we start with what the tract actually is — acreage, access, timber, water, structures, encumbrances — then price it against real comparable sales in this part of Mississippi. Overpricing burns weeks and signals to serious buyers that the seller isn't ready.
How we prepare a George County listing:
- Verify acreage, deed boundaries, and any known easements or leases.
- Walk the tract to identify road frontage, interior roads, water features, and stand condition.
- Pull drone imagery, boundary maps, and a plat overlay so buyers can see what they're looking at.
- Price against comparable MS rural sales — pasture vs. timber vs. mixed-use adjusted honestly.
- Market the listing to Crew's active buyer network and land-specific platforms, not a generic residential feed.
- Coordinate showings, offers, inspections, and closing with the title company.
When timber value is a material part of the tract, we coordinate an independent appraisal or cruise through our affiliate, Southeast Forestlands, before pricing — so the number that goes on the sign is defensible.
