The deal
What this parcel is worth, what encumbers it, and what its paper trail says — value, distress, listings, sales, and tax.
Why this differs from the assessor value above: Colorado assesses agricultural-classified land on grazing productivity (ag-use value), typically ~30–40× below market. This estimate instead applies the county median $/acre from clean single-parcel arms-length ag sales (bulk multi-parcel deeds, government/exempt land, and nominal transfers excluded). An estimate, not an appraisal.
No distress filings on record for this parcel. We monitor county clerk recordings (NEDs, lis pendens, liens, judgements) and join them via fuzzy name match.
No active for-sale listings on record for this parcel. We track public-record foreclosure-sale lists (county Public Trustee) and attach them here when a sale is scheduled.
