        Deming Ranchettes subdivision was created in 1960's.  All properties we are selling have legal, mapped public road access. There is no land lock. This ensures that you can easily reach your property without any access issues.

         None of the properties have surveyor's markers yet. You will need to hire a surveyor to find your four corner boundaries. The original surveyor only marked the four corners of the block where your land is located. All properties legally mapped (see survey map enclosed with your land purchase).

        County and state online maps, Google Maps and Google Earth are not accurate and between 20-50 feet off (we checked it personally).  You can use it as a reference but please for marking purposes refer to the legal Surveyors Plat Map which will be enclosed with your land purchase, before you build a fence you need to get the property surveyed by an authorized professional to avoid any boundary disputes.
