Buying inside Cordillera Ranch

A gated, deed-restricted community sets rules that shape what you can build. Before you make an offer, get the covenants and architectural guidelines, the minimum square footage, setback and fencing rules, the HOA dues and any requirement to start building within a set period. Ask how water and wastewater are handled for the specific lot, since some homesites rely on wells or septic and others on a provider.

Tracts outside the gates

The handful of parcels elsewhere, such as George's Ranch - Adeline, Kendall Woods Estate, N. Barcroft Estates and Dresden Wood, call for a fuller checklist. Order a survey to confirm frontage and any easements, ask what nearby wells produce, and have the soil evaluated for septic, since shallow rock is common in this part of the Hill Country. Get a quote for extending power, check whether any of the tract lies in a floodplain, and if the land has an agricultural or wildlife valuation, learn what keeps it in place. The Rothrock Realty Team can help gather these answers before your option period ends.
