The person who placed a house on the plot most likely relocated. If you own a house and relocate, you are allowed to bypass the timer.

The other time is separate, and is just calculating the devaluation. This resets every six hours. A plot could be unavailable to purchase for as short as 30 minutes or upwards of 22 hours. It is completely random.
