Discovering Prime Colorado Vacant Land For Sale

By Karina Frost


While a large number of individuals have moved to Colorado in recent years, not all are looking to stay for the long term. There are others who are looking for Colorado vacant land for sale. Generally, these individuals are looking to either build a custom home, place a tiny house, or, use for agriculture. Whether or not that agriculture may include growing marijuana will most often depend on the location of the land.

Depending on where the land is located, backyard farming and chickens may or may not be allowed. Also, it is important to consider than land often has an annual property tax requirement. While in some areas there are limits as to how much property tax can increase annually, most areas do not not have these limits. As such, it is often good to look at past history before purchasing the land to assure it is not in an area that has drastic increases in property tax on an annual basis.

Colorado does host some of the most beautiful country in the United States. Some areas with a lot of vacant land. To find the best deal, it is advised to look in areas which have the most available open space. Whereas, when looking in areas like Denver and Boulder, lot prices are often going to be a great deal higher as much of the available space in those areas are quite competitive amongst both personal buyers and developers.

Senior citizens would most likely do well in areas like Ouray, Durango or Silverton. Whereas, jet setters would most likely enjoy Denver, Boulder and Telluride. Regardless of the area in which one settles, most individuals who move to the area find the scenic beauty, hot springs and overall sense of awe amazing.

Thanks to the recent legalization of marijuana for personal use, finding affordable and desirable properties for sale anywhere in the State is going to be difficult. For, now sellers have the higher ground so to speak. As such, as vacant land is a much desired commodity among both personal and professional growers, values are currently on the rise.

The rise in price related to real estate is not all bad. Although, if the population continues to rise as it is now, there could very well be a housing shortage. It is this lack in availability of housing which then causes prices to increase yet again for other reasons. As such, time is of the essence for those looking for a good deal on property anywhere in Colorado.

Although, before placing a down payment, it is always advisable to check property tax rates and building codes. If not, then individuals may end up owning property which does not provide for any intended usage. Whereas, individuals can easily assure the purchased land can provide for any agricultural projects or structures whether installed now or in the future by checking any and all local building codes and ordinances before finalizing a sale.

A good example of this is setting up a mobile, or tiny home only to find out later that doing so violates local building codes. When doing this research, individuals can make arrangements in advance to assure that the property can be used for whatever type structure the owner desires to build, lease, rent or stay in after installation.
