Recommendedwater4 senior water rights on record at or near this parcel (oldest priority 1889).

The deal
What this parcel is worth, what encumbers it, and what its paper trail says — value, distress, listings, sales, and tax.
- · County-level comp model — no adjustment for condition, view, or remodel. An estimate, not an appraisal.
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.

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.

Distance is measured to the nearest edge of each unit's bounding box (a fast approximation, not precise polygon containment). “Inside unit boundary” means the parcel centroid sits within the unit's bbox; verify against the unit's precise boundary before acting.

Actions that move this rating- FEMA Elevation Certificate — A licensed surveyor produces an EC documenting the first-floor elevation relative to base flood elevation. Often reduces NFIP premium significantly; required for some private flood carriers.
- Compare NFIP vs private flood policies — Private flood insurance has expanded since 2019; for some SFHA properties it under-prices NFIP by 30-50% with broader coverage limits.
