  2. 2.

    Verify augmentation plans + diligence on the priority date

    Recommendedwater

    27 senior water rights on record at or near this parcel (oldest priority 1891). Under prior appropriation those RIGHTS stand near the front of the call line in dry years — but they benefit this parcel only if they convey with it. Verify ownership and conveyance, augmentation-plan membership, and any pending change-of-use applications.

    CDSS water-rights search →
  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.

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

Water security
Senior

Senior decreed water with priority back to 1891 — a senior priority date under Colorado prior appropriation; what actually conveys, and on what terms, is established by the decrees and title diligence.

Water wells (2)
2 permitted water wells are recorded at or near 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.

Source: the Colorado Division of Water Resources well-permit registry (CDSS). These are WATER wells (domestic / irrigation / stock), not oil & gas wells. Wells are matched to the parcel by proximity to its centroid, not by surveyed boundary — a well listed here can sit on an adjacent parcel. Descriptive, not legal advice — confirm the permit location, decreed use, and yield with CO DWR before relying on them.

Oil & gas wells

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