Your Guide to Land Ownership
Colorado Springs offers a range of land sale options, from expansive plots for development to serene spaces for personal retreats, each evaluated to align with your unique needs and long-term goals.
With expert guidance, navigate the complexities of a land sale confidently. Our approach focuses on understanding your vision and ensuring every decision adds lasting value to your investment.
Residential Land Sale
It is designated for single-family homes and multi-family dwellings such as duplexes. It is typically located within city limits or suburban areas, often requiring access to utilities like water, sewerage systems, electricity, and gas lines. Residential lots vary in size based on location and zoning regulations.
Essential Utilities
Located within city limits or suburban areas and may require installation access to utilities like water, sewerage systems, electricity, and gas lines. Residential lots can vary greatly in size depending on location and zoning regulations.
Some properties may require the installation of a well and septic system. Others may be able to access the city utilities and will require tap fees.
Key Zoning Considerations
Not all lenders can loan for land purchases. I can help connect with a land lender that specializes in the purchase as well as can assist with a construction loan for building the home at a later date. Land loans are specifically designed for purchasing undeveloped property and typically have higher interest rates and shorter repayment terms than traditional mortgages.
Key zoning considerations in Colorado include allowable land use, minimum lot size, building height restrictions, setback requirements, and environmental protection provisions.
The sub-division can also have its own set of rules (ACC – Architectural Control Committee) or (CCR – Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions) which can restrict the type of buildings, usage, or have specific requirements for building such as square footage, style, roof material, etc.
Soils Testing
You also need soils testing for building as well as your well and septic installation. Soil types, slope of the building site, and other factors may require additional design considerations. A soils engineer will be able to weigh in on a possible septic design, drainage issues, possible foundation design, and the potential for additional site remediation.
Colorado is known for its expansive soils so consultation with a qualified soils engineer to determine the feasibility of building on a parcel, especially on the location of the site where you wish to build your home is highly recommended
Agricultural Land Sale
Colorado has a wide variety of agricultural land for purchase. One common use for agricultural land is to grow crops or raise livestock for sale or personal consumption. This can include traditional crops like corn, wheat, and soybeans and specialty crops like fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Some buyers may also use agricultural land for grazing livestock, such as cattle, sheep, goats, and alpacas.
Usually, there are additional zoning laws regarding the number of animals, how much you can water the land, etc.
Improvement Location Certificate (ILC)
You may also need a survey (also called an ILC – Improvement Location Certificate or a Boundaries Survey).
A survey may turn up issues that are once again not visible to the naked eye. A few of these issues are as follows:
- Encroachments: a seemingly small thing like a neighbor’s fence unknowingly crossing a property line can become a big problem down the road.
- Property boundaries: A parcel must be properly surveyed with all corners marked to be certain of the exact boundaries. This is especially true for irregularly shaped mountain properties which may not use the customary lot and block descriptions in a recorded plat.
Easements
A survey will uncover any known easements on the property (nonpossessory property rights) that may not be obvious to the buyer. For example, a survey might uncover that the electric company has an easement on the parcel allowing access to their electric infrastructure which could eliminate your ability on a section of the land.
Need a big picture to weigh the cost of building from scratch. You might think that buying the perfect piece of land and then building to your specifications may be the only route where you will get what you want but don’t forget the hidden or overlooked costs. Be sure to add in such hidden costs as wells and septic, gas or propane, electricity, internet, fences, driveways, landscaping, etc.

Tricia is absolutely amazing! She helped us find our Colorado Springs dream home, making the process easy, fun and efficient during our house hunting trip. Once our offer had... read more been accepted she quickly had the inspection lined up and everything else just quickly fell into place. She has gone out of her way to assist us in our move and help us connect with local services and vendors, and even taking video before closing and after seller move out to give us peace of mind since we are relocating from out of state! I highly recommend Tricia as I haven’t ever had better service in any purchase, if I could give her 10 stars I would!

Tricia Mandeville, part of the Fletcher Team did a phenomenal job assisting us with our home purchase. Not only were we first time homebuyers, but we were also coming from... read more out of state! She helped us define and understand the different regions of our area, the benefits to each, and was incredibly supportive of our “remote” situation. Tricia would do virtual walkthroughs and send them to us and was always meticulously prepared and organized. Can’t say enough about how well she treated us during this process and how patient she was.

The kind of realtor you hope to find… and rarely do.
We had an incredible experience working with Tricia! From our very first conversation, she made the entire process feel smooth... read more and stress-free. No pushiness, no pressure… just calm, honest guidance and sharp instincts.
One moment stands out: she insisted we go see that house on a Saturday night, even when we were tired and unsure. Thank goodness she did, because it ended up being the one. That extra effort changed everything, and it’s a perfect example of how Tricia shows up for her clients.
We felt seen, supported, and truly cared for every step of the way. We’re now in our dream home, and it’s all thanks to their dedication and insight.
If you’re looking for someone who knows the market, listens well, and goes the extra mile (at just the right moment)… Tricia is your person.

What can I say, this lady is Awesome! Tricia helped me through the process of a new construction home while I was stationed overseas in Europe. From start to finish... read more she was there to answer questions and work through the home buying process. Super friendly towards military personnel and very knowledgeable about the area, but also has connections throughout the region to make buying or selling a breeze. After a few years at my new home I had to make difficult decisions and sell. I called up Tricia and she was right there in my corner to make the process so much simpler. Through her dedicated hard work we found a buyer and got a great closing price. I do not think I could have done it all without her there. Thank you again Tricia and for those of you looking for a great realtor just talk to Tricia and you will be more than set!

To say that Tricia went above and beyond her job description would be the understatement of this decade, at least. In a nightmare situation resulting from a loan officer’s egregious... read more mistake, Tricia walked my wife and I through every. single. excruciating. step. to get back on track and close on time. She flawlessly handled finding a new lender, easing discomfort from our sellers and their agent, calming us down, and somehow managed to keep everyone on schedule. In what was probably the most stressful business transaction of my life (solely as a result of my first loan officer), Tricia was there. I can’t recommend her enough. I will be singing her praises to everyone that will listen!
PS: When she asks you questions about your lender/loan officer and tries to discern their level of competency, she has your best interest in mind. Listen to her.
