Needs review means a record exists that requires verification. No record means nothing is on file — which is not an all-clear.

Action plan for this parcel

Prioritized recommendations derived from this parcel's patterns, applicable rebates, and county-level context.
  1. 1.

    Verify mineral severance vs surface-only ownership

    Criticalminerals

    0 producing wells on the parcel. In CO, surface and mineral rights are commonly severed — pull deed history to confirm what's actually owned. If minerals are reserved to a prior owner, royalties flow to them; if conveyed with surface, royalties + lease bonuses go to the current owner.

  2. 2.

    2 rebate programs match this address

    Recommendedrebate

    Across state, county, and local sponsors — up to $1,000 stackable. Includes Colorado Wildfire Mitigation Income Tax Credit; Forest Restoration and Wildfire Risk Mitigation (FRWRM) Grant.

  3. 3.

    Verify owner mailing address is current

    Optionalcompliance

    Owner of record is out-of-state. If you are the owner, ensure your county assessor has a current mailing address — undelivered tax bills are the most common precursor to tax-lien foreclosure.

Acrescope presents data and surfaces actions — it does not provide financial, legal, tax, or insurance advice. Confirm with a qualified professional before incurring costs.

The snow-load band is a buyer-facing heuristic from annual snowfall, not an engineered ground-snow-load design value — confirm with the local building department before relying on it.

Water security
Decreed surface-water rights & seniority synthesized into one prior-appropriation read — the water question a ranch or land buyer leads with.
Water security
Vulnerable

No decreed water rights on record — on-site water would rely on a well permit or hauled water. A real constraint in a drought- or fire-exposed area.

Water rights

No water rights linked to this parcel. We spatially join CO Division of Water Resources records within 200m of the parcel centroid. Most non-agricultural mountain parcels have none on file.

Oil & gas wells

No oil & gas wells within ½ mile of this parcel. Sourced from the Colorado Energy & Carbon Management Commission (ECMC) public registry.

Federal mineral estate
