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.

    Pull the water-right ownership chain

    Recommendedwater

    This parcel has 7 senior water rights (oldest priority 1868). Verify ownership chain via the CO Division of Water Resources — senior rights conveyed with the parcel are worth materially more than unbundled values suggest.

  4. 4.

    Verify augmentation plans + diligence on the priority date

    Recommendedwater

    7 water rights with oldest priority 1868. In Colorado's prior-appropriation system, this puts the parcel near the front of the call line in dry years — verify augmentation plan membership and any pending change-of-use applications.

  5. 5.

The deal

What this parcel is worth, what encumbers it, and what its paper trail says — value, distress, listings, sales, and tax.

This parcel's recorded sale
no recorded sale

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.

Distress signals

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.

For sale

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.

Water wells (14)
14 permitted water wells fall within this parcel (primarily domestic). A permitted well is real, recorded water access from the CO Division of Water Resources — and on unbuilt rural land it is often the gating utility for buildability.

Radon zone is an EPA county-level rating — most Colorado mountain counties are Zone 1 (the highest tier), so testing is recommended on any build. The nearest mapped Quaternary fault is shown for context; Colorado’s Quaternary faults are sparse and largely low-slip-rate.
