Buyer Considerations

Buyers should review all CCRs, architectural guidelines, and septic system requirements, as acreage properties rely on individual wastewater systems. Properties may include additional structures such as workshops or storage buildings, which must comply with HOA guidelines. Due diligence should include septic inspections, verification of propane systems when applicable, and evaluation of drainage patterns common to large-lot settings.

Because utilities such as trash service and propane are homeowner-arranged, buyers should confirm available providers for their specific address. Buyers should also account for maintenance associated with larger wooded parcels, including tree care and driveway upkeep.
