If you are Selling or Buying Your Vacant Land
Land Easements, How do they effect your purchase or sale?
When you are looking to buy a parcel of Vacant Land, you'll want to make sure where the utility (power, water, septic or sewer and telephone) easements are if any. You'll also want to make sure that the road is public or private.
These easements can sometimes hinder you ability to build. Utility easements will have an area around them included in the easement so the easement can be maintained. Also a huge Power Line easement will sometimes have setbacks required by the municipality.
When you buy a lot, access to the lot may not be obvious. There may be other property between you and the main road. Any utilities in the area may have to cross another property to get to your lot. You need to make sure that you can legally get to the lot, and that utilities can be
brought to the lot.
A title company will be extremely useful in determining these facts. This is helpful for a house as well as for a parcel of vacant land. The title company will also provide any surveys if they are available.
