NIGP 99884: Real Estate (incl. Buildings, Houses, Land, etc), Sale of Surplus and Obsolete Items, Sale of Surplus and Obsolete Items

NIGP 99884 Sale of Surplus and Obsolete Items is an Item code addressing the disposition of state and local government surplus real property through competitive procurement. Recent solicitations show state and local jurisdictions selling abandoned infrastructure (right-of-way parcels, former park-and-ride lots), city-owned vacant land, county surplus parcels, school district property holdings, and historic buildings slated for adaptive reuse or redevelopment. Issuing bodies span city procurement departments, county commissioners courts, transit authorities, school districts, and specialized authorities—exemplified by the City of Sebastian's airport hangar-site lease RFP, Collier County's mixed-use land disposition ITN, Columbia County's abandoned right-of-way sales, and MARTA's former park-and-ride disposal. The code captures a diverse mix of transaction structures: outright sales with sealed bids and opening prices; lease arrangements with ground-lease terms; request-for-negotiations for master development of downtown parcels; and qualifications-based solicitations for redevelopment partners on historic properties. State and local governments also procure real estate brokerage and consulting services under this code to manage portfolio disposition, market analysis, and buyer identification. Geographic activity is dispersed across Florida (multiple coastal and inland county sales), Georgia (downtown adaptive-reuse RFPs in Albany; historic Community House rehabilitation in Richmond Hill; MARTA land sale), Texas (San Angelo city land sale; Jackson County, Missouri multiple-property dispositions), Arizona, and Colorado, with no single region dominating recent postings.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Sebastian's RFP 26-04-RFP (posted October 19, 2026; due December 11, 2025) for a 30-year ground lease and development of five airport parcels for 60-by-60-foot aircraft hangars, evaluated on qualifications, business plan, airport benefits, and rental rate; Collier County's ITN 26-8679 (posted October 8, 2026; due October 14, 2026) for acquisition and redevelopment or outright purchase of a 6.86-acre former port property with Track A targeting affordable housing and Track B targeting purchase, supported by a $3.335 million independent appraisal; the City of Albany's three RFPs for downtown historic buildings (138 Pine Avenue, 218 N. Washington, and 132–136 Pine Avenue; due October 1, October 13, and October 16, 2026 respectively) seeking qualified developers for adaptive reuse with weighted evaluation criteria across development concept, financial capacity, experience, schedule, and community impact; and Columbia County's IFB for sale of 2.77 acres of abandoned Morris Callaway Road right-of-way (due November 5, 2026) with public sealed-bid opening and all costs post-sale borne by the buyer. These transactions typically feature minimum bids or reserve prices, earnest-money deposits, 45–90-day inspection or due-diligence windows for purchasers, mandatory insurance and bonding requirements, and deed restrictions or lease covenants preserving public benefit, historic character, or community use. Participation incentives include local vendor preferences (5–10 points in many cases) and encouragement of minority, women, and disadvantaged business participation, though formal set-asides are uncommon in this code.
