What Are You Going To Do With Your Land? Part 1

Is it a get-away for RVing or camping; maybe you plan to build a home or move a Mobile home onto the property; perhaps your plan is for a retirement home. How about one of those storage units with a nice porch on the front? Or maybe downsize to a tiny home which seems to be all the rage right now. What are your plans for the property in one month, one year, five years?

Blue Skies Land wants to help you find the right piece of land at an affordable price and affordable monthly payments. All properties on our website have clear Titles. AND we have done the research on each property so that you need not worry about clouded titles. Once you have paid for the property, we will provide a Warranty Deed and Affidavit of Property Value to be Recorded at the County. We also make sure taxes are current on all properties.

(Basically, we cover all the bases)

We are unique, in that, if you wanted to do some improvements on the property before you have completed paying for it, and need permits from the County, we will provide you with a Notarized letter authorizing you to get the permits needed.

For the next two weeks, I am going to review the imposed camping and/or building restrictions for each of the 5 Northern Arizona Counties, where the majority of our properties are located.

I’m going to start with the most strict and end with the least restrictive County.

Yavapai County (which includes Bridge Canyon Country Estates)

This is a beautiful area with most properties 2+ acres and lots of 10-20 foot Pinion Pines. The County is quite restrictive on what you can do with your property. Camping is fine. RVs and Motor homes are Ok but can’t be left permanently on the land. Maybe 2 months max at a time. I have not heard of anyone getting permits for alternative building or alternative waste systems. Let me know if you have heard different.

You would definitely need permits if you were to move a Mobile Home, build a home, or put up a tiny home. Yavapai County is very restrictive on what you can put on the property. We have had two letters from the County over the last ten years requiring us to remove an RV from a property we had sold on terms. They were junk RV’s so there is some enforcement. If you take care of your property and have a nice RV or motor home on the property, they won’t bother you.

Coconino County (which includes Grand Canyon Estates and Kaibab Knolls Estates)

The Grand Canyon properties are quite open with a few 10 foot pinion pines on the properties. Usually 1 acre properties. The County allows camping and RVing with 90 day permits. Doesn’t seem to be an issue but thought you should know. The County is pro-active and will look at alternative building and alternative waste systems. Permits for building a house or a Mobile Home on the property is required. I have met with the County about building tiny houses and they are very receptive to the idea.

Kaibab Knolls is in the Ashfork area. There are a lot more trees and it is more private. As far as I can tell, unless you trash out the property, they will leave you alone. I have several year round customers living off the grid in the area. Mostly 2+ acre properties. It would require permits for building a home or moving a Mobile Home onto the property.

Next week I’ll cover Mojave County, Apache County, and Navajo County. I call them my wild, wild west counties.

Reach out with any info you may have or if you have any questions. I would love to chat.
