Acreage For Sale In California - Affordable Cheap Land, Build, Hunt or Getaway. 

Thank you, that does show it at its best but I just list it when the seller wants to sell. You will see brown grass in upcoming property videos as they get listed on the open market. But, I am no land developer. lol Thank you for the comment.

That is very true.

I would buy this if not for it being in CA. I grew up in Yuba City and I have family in Chico, this would be perfect for me to retire and build on. But not with the liberals in charge.

100% right

what specifically is not accommodating to private property rights for middle class people?

@@Mic1TheSinger massive taxes and gun control laws which are unconstitutional. I wont live anywhere I cant defend myself or my property

It's also part of an hoa.

Great info! Just begun my search. Good stuff to know. Thank you

Make it self-contained. You can dig a well or tap into the stream and filter it, septic, have propane delivered, solar, generator, etc.

@@emmas1082 - You aren’t getting anything to a landlocked site without a helicopter, LOL! Check for access rights and easements. I’m not trying to be negative, just suggesting you think first and go in with your eyes and minds open.

@@Erin-Thor did you watch the video? Do you know anything about remote, off grid homes? Nope. You would think by your comments that no one has ever built an off grid home🤣😂🤣 So you don’t think that propane cannot be delivered to an area right by the road, with it piped to the house? That’s a lot cheaper than trying to get a municipal gas line to a remote property. This is definitely for a DIY’r, but everything I mentioned is fairly inexpensive. There are remote off grid cabins all over the country. How do you think they do it?

By the way. Landlocked land have easements for ingress-it is called an easement by necessity. Your dad should have contacted an attorney, not the neighbors.

👍You know how to do it!! Sweet. Property taxes are just 1 to 1.25% of the assessed value per year.

Your right, dig into the hill and build with cement blocks, just remove fire material like trees and weed eat the grass around home, of course a metal roof. You can do a well with solar pump to holding tank and gravity feed to home. I'm just to old also75, and slowing down.

Looking at California property is just that, looking. Democrats have ruined it already.

exactly,people commenting don't realize the costs.

@@speedwayman100 Besides the costs, dealing with this corrupted idiot at building department, propane outdoor tank and I could go for hours. It’s not worth the headache. Dude, you’re talking about a bunch of pot headed officials in California.

@@amidazad4832 Lmao,i completely agree with you.

Most people can’t comprehend law, nor could they comprehend the difference between law and codes. Get a law dictionary for clarity, start with ordinance/ license, Regis. Etc, basic, extremely basic.

Yes, the creeks can dry up if we get into droughts. The photo of the fish is definitely a a trout, I took that photo of him from a nearby lot I sold and from Cottonwood Creek. This trout is missing the sucker mouth to be a sucker fish. Look at both online and you'll see the difference. You should attend one of the potlucks, the people that collect the road dues are the opposite of nosey from my experience. Some lots are more expensive than others out here, depends on many factors, how much usable land, does it have Cottonwood Creek on it, and is there a way to drive into the lot. I'm glad you found the video useful. That was the goal and thank you for the comments.

@@MountainValleyRealEstate Thanks for your reply . I think the photos of the fish I saw was from updated pictures from about a year after the initial listing . Looked at so many properties back then and still do . I will look at the pictures again but the fish I saw had a different dorsal fin shape than a trout but a friend of mine has caught a trout in the main Cottonwood Creek , I think this is the South fork . No first property I saw here was beautiful with a small pond on it but somehow one of the owners put a barbed wire fence through part of it . Only 45 grand in 2019 , got sold in 2020 I think . I had aspirations of pond building at the bottom of that land but it wasn't to be .

Doing construction or modifying a water tributary in CA. That's risky. Hoping you didn't have a neighbor that would make a complaint. It all looks fantastic is the spring. There are so many better properties available at higher elevations that stay green all year around even during drought years and with paved roads, municipal water, and power, tall trees and no HOA. Cottonwood Creek at only 500 ft elevation is an arid desert in the summer months.

Yes, there are always other properties with other attributes, better or worse. The price of this and those properties will also be in relation to what they have or don't have to offer. The attributes you are talking about will add quite a bit to be able to purchase the property. All depends on what you want to use the property for. Higher elevation will have snow and thus access is more difficult, may need to build to a snow load roof spec etc. There are always tradeoffs and it depend on the buyer and what they are looking for and how much they can afford. This is a good "bang for the buck" property, you can shoot on your property, it has Cottonwood Creek, there is some easy to get to area of the property and it is away from the city. A lot of people buy these lots as a getaway from the bigger cities. It does suite that need very well. If I was selling a lot in upper Oregon or Washington people would say its so green and lush all year, then someone would say ya but it's always gloomy and rainy outside and the sun hardly ever comes out.

@@MountainValleyRealEstate I am finding 3 to 4 thousand feet in elevation is about the sweet spot . Some snow but about 5 to 10 degrees cooler in heatwaves .

There’s ways of handling that issue!!

I bet there’s gold in that 2nd creek

@@garystevens1044 there probably is and it's beautiful land just in a fucked up state.

@@speedwayman100. I second your statement.

The key to your statement was “50 years ago.” Most people can’t afford the cost of living in CA and the livability is only getting worse.

California is a shit hole its so bad they literally have an app for that, btw the whole map is shit brown. As long as thier voting for the loony bin to run the state....no one is California dreamin

It's not the geography that turns people off, but to the contrary. Most people love California's geography. They just cannot stand the politics and taxes. I know that area. It's going to turn brown and get really hot. Early spring is a good time to visit.

That's because it's commiefornia

Shhhhhhhhh…By just writing about it, you give it away.

We have $300k to spend, but not in a place that burns all the time. We just want to be away from the rat race of the city.

@@Biker65 You might like Washington state. Look around the olympic national forest on the Seattle side. I used to summer up there. Land is cheap. Nobody cares if you develop. Only thing is it's very wet most of the year. You need to heavily consider drainage when looking at properties, especially old ones, or planning to build.

​@@Biker65A Realtor would say that constant fires 🔥 could reduce your heating cost significantly 😏

@@Cio-kc1skLoL there is no reason for consumers to grow pot anymore. No field of greens for me.

Thank you. I wish I could take credit. I was just the relater of the beauty!

Yes, it is one of the biggest I have seen. I really liked it and wish I had it in my front yard! 😀

Thank you! Yes, I love seeing them too. Brings it altogether I think.

Thank you! I really appreciate the positive feedback! I'm sure I will still be here when you are ready to retire. 😀

My property tax based on California constitution roll over. 350$ per year. Cheaper than lot rent in a trailer park.

1) LOL 1 to 1.25% of the assessed value per year. You must be thinking LA or the like. Way different here. CA is a big state and it isn't all the same contrary to what most people are commenting on here. 2) Sales tax, 7.25% lowest in the state. 3) Red or Blue? Red here. 4) Fire insurance is offered by the state/government if there are no commercial entities offing it.

Sued for what? Owning the land? They are the ones that would get sued.

😂😂😂 this property is very remote, sounds like a case of brain worms, where are you getting your information from?? It doesn't work that way. No one has legal right to squat on your rural property in California, that's called trespassing. I know because I live in California in the redwoods, it's extremely rural as is this property.

Dumbest comment I read here so far and I read a lot of dumb comments

@@dannydonnelly8345 don't mind him, that just his city folk thinking

Yes, it is.

The steepness areas is going down to the creeks. Can make it much easier with a shovel and some homemade steps with the dirt or maybe some wood put down in a step shape. Thank you for the comments!

Yes, mostly true. This property is not in Washington.

Great question!! You could get lime disease here but most of the deer ticks are further north up I-5 an hour or 2. Mostly dog ticks around Shasta County, those do not carry lime disease. And to get lime, you must be bit by a deer tick that has already fed on a mouse etc. If you are the first meal, then they can't give you lime. This is according to our local specialist when I asked details about it specifically.

Protective covenants? You mean CCRS? Yes, the zoning allows for a single family residence.

Great questions. I don't think landslides/liquefaction are on the Natural Hazard Report as a box checked/being in this kind of area, so I assume it's not be much of an issue here. You would need solar as power is many miles away.

I live off grid in Northern California I can tell you that I have had no problem for the past 12 years living off of a Honda generator. I have been waiting for a solar to get more advanced. And this year have bought solar panels, batteries and inverter. It's an amazing system I wouldn't live on grid, unless I had to. My solar system is much more dependable and considerably cheaper. The batteries have at least a 20-year lifespan, I'm 68 years old so I think I should be okay at least for now😂

California taxes are wonderful

@@Mike_Greentea Prop 13 might protect it from our taxes.

d of prop 13, by putting up fees the courts have been friendly towards the people of late claiming many of the fees are just hidden taxes. One of the county lost a major case on that, but I said most. The last case kept the fees open as long as its in reason. Basically the government needs to justify the fee, and they have to follow certain procedures before adding it. what the county did was put a 60,000 dollar fee to develop the property and couldnt show the work on how they got the number and why it benefits I think the owner. d of prop 13, by putting up fees the courts have been friendly towards the people of late claiming many of the fees are just hidden taxes.

there is always a catch. first is I don't see road access.

thats because the people who want rural land are conservative, and conservatives are smart enough to leave that communist craphole state

Thank you for comment!

Sweet, that is awesome!

Yes, late winter and spring really make the property sensational! Thank you for the comment.

Thanks for the info!

LOL Awesome analogy!! Thank you for the comment!

😂

Awesome! Thank you.

Yes, it has smooth thin red bark.

Really? I did not know that, thanks for letting everyone know.

An outdoorsman's dream location for a getaway cabin . I'm sure solar power and maybe digging a well is all you need . Beautiful! !!.

Everyone’s an expert 😂😂😂

Yes, mostly correct, that is why it is priced accordingly.

At property line post, Lot 266 post the property goes left to Cottonwood Creek and right from the post for about 1/2 mile. There are 3 lots after this one on that road and 2 lots look vacant. But yes, the road goes through the property as you can see on the aerial image so someone could drive by the area if you built there. You could also put a fence or the like for more privacy if you wanted or build a culvert/driveway or whatever it takes to get across seasonal rocky creek and its steep topography then uphill to the mostly gentle top of the property with even better views. But that would cost some cash. This are is about 30 minutes from Redding, CA. Add another 20 to get to the back of the area where the property is located.

Awesome!

Thank you! I'm sorry you don't like CA. If it's the governor, he won't be here forever but the land will. The property and sales taxes here are low. Property taxes are 1 to 1.25% and sales tax 7.25%.

It is beautify out there. I love the sound of the creek.

There is risk of fires. And to develop the land would be very expensive.

have a lot of jingle for permits

Riparian Water Rights: Here are some of the details from CA Water Resources... Riparian rights usually come with owning a parcel of land that is adjacent to a source of water. With statehood, California adopted the English common law familiar to the eastern seaboard; such law also included the riparian doctrine. A riparian right entitles the landowner to use a correlative share of the water flowing past his or her property. Riparian rights do not require permits, licenses, or government approval, but they apply only to the water which would naturally flow in the stream. Riparian rights do not entitle a water use to divert water to storage in a reservoir for use in the dry season or to use water on land outside of the watershed. Riparian rights remain with the property when it changes hands, although parcels severed from the adjacent water source generally lose their right to the water.

I agree. Especially with Gruesome

😂 I live in California I'm so happy that you folks and folks like you segregate themselves based on ignorance. Wherever it is you live please continue to live there. Because you don't like the politics of the governor you base your decision on things like that? You are aware that we have a democracy and elections and that nobody stays the governor indefinitely right? But whatever it is you believe go ahead and keep on believing it like I said I'm happy that folks of your persuasion choose not to live in the great state of California!

I live in Los Angeles area , I totally agreed about Gruesome, plus if you go near by city for supplies, if any homeless close by take over your cabin you will have hard time to get them out of that cabin. California has most mass up laws in the nation.

Come on man, that’s true “only” 99.99999999999997% of the time. smFh

California isn't a mess. 4 largest economy in the world. Still going strong. We've got our issues like most places, definitely not falling apart

Yes, there are roads and one leads to the property, Cottonwood Creek Rd. If you mean where I hiked at the top of the property or to the waters edge, no there are no trails but you can walk it if you are in good shape, have some boots etc. The part after seasonal rocky creek is upsloping but not steep and you could ATV from there up to the top of the property but getting the ATV to that point would require some work or a love o bravery. LOL

Just from your username this is not the piece of property for you. It is a lot steeper than the video shows, and very little of that land is eve close to flat. And of course never believe what the selling agent says. Go see with your own eyes and make sure there are no restrictions for that piece of land. Make sure the road into whatever land you look at is a county maintained road, and that you are not landlocked! Also remember that the agent did say he wouldn't want to drive a regular car to it.

Agree with your comments except that all properties here will have some kind of restriction. Like a setback distance from a well to a septic, number of houses on it, etc, etc. This is a private road with a POA at $260 a year for the road maint. I recently called them to see when they were going to finish grading the rest of the roads in the area and to this property. It sounded like they didn't have enough money yet. They did grade the first mile or 2 to the property but that leaves 2 or 3 left. Yes, make sure it has a deeded access and has legal creation as well. Luckily, most title companies pick up on this when searching through the chain of title. This area is remote and more wild west than city life.

It is 1% to 1.25% of the assessed value per year now and when you improve it. At a $60,000 assessed value it would be about $600 for the year.

There is a road maint. of $260 per year. There are some light CCRS. If you contact me via my website from below the property description I can send you more info. Deposit? After you close escrow you can use it. Yes, a cabin is good. Some people do visit with their RV.

You don't need a jeep get to the accessible 1 to 1.5 acre part but you do need to improve the steep slope down to Rocky Creek and back up before you could drive a jeep or atv the rest of the way up to the level view top.

Walk, are you people that lazy? That’s why it’s called nature everybody everybody wants to destroy it.!

California is a beautiful place but it's ran by democrats. And I'm not down for all that

Too bad you’re a tool

Yes, it is neat property for sure.

It has a road going through it. If you go to my website using the link in the description you can look at the last few photos and you will see the survey map, map of the area and the surveyor report. The HOA wants the road dues, $260 per year and hope you attend the pot lucks and meeting and vote on stuff. No owner carry on this one. But Access Mortgage in Redding will loan on it.

Yes, a single family residence is allowed, manufactured home, not too old mobile home, or cabin, but would have to be off grid with solar for power. You need a little dirt work to make a total level area and a well and a septic.

I'll start. I'm in real estate and Bigfoot and I survive off the land by eating the local grass, some berries and the occasional figs. LOL Seriously though, the cost of living here is a lot lower than if you lived in say Sacramento or the like. You make a bit less here but it also costs less, property taxes, sales tax, etc.

They are about $1500

Not at the moment. Great question!

Rocky Creek runs through the property, the other creek is the border of the property. No you are not trespassing if you go to the creek or are in the creek.

90 to 110, yes. They are April photos by the way. Your blowing smoke is a bit overdone.

Great questions! Property taxes are 1 to 1.25% of the assessed value per year. There are rules, regulations like most places. The thing to do is talk to the Shasta County Building Department and tell them your plans with the property so you can hear what they say is needed/not needed or allowed/not allowed, etc. Give them the Assessor's Parcel Number located on my website under the property description.

Which tree? The Manzanita? Its bark is very thin and red. Any yellow grass is a dry area and most all the ground will turn yellow by next month or so depending on the rains.

No dumb questions. About 1300 feet. It is in Ono, CA.

I have found gold in this creek panning. Two very small flakes with 3 pans.

What would you like to know? Most of what I know is in the video.

It is Cottonwood Creek. Nowhere near 49 or Sutter. Not even sure where that is.
