Lure of land gives way to frustration

I bought a 5 acre piece of land in the Tierra Hermosa subdivision in Hudspeth county. Can anyone tell me about this subdivision I bought it mainly for a place to come and camp for vacations. Is it accessible? Or, will I need to bring my ATV? Is there a place in Sierra Blanca who will survey it and provide me GPS coordinates of the corners cheaply? Is water from wells there drinkable?

I own 20 acres in. Hudspeth COUNTY I Rod recall that you don't have drilling rights on. The property but you can pay for water to be. Trucked in. And you can have a septic tank installed for. $2,500.00. EL Paso seem Rod growing.3555

A 5 acre pc is not a legal transaction in W Tx. Undeveloved land must be 10 ac or more. Those 20's some people purchased can legally be spil down to 10's on paper and simply record it w the clerks office. PS the false info i see on this board is crazy. The merco dumping has nothing to do with Toxic dumping. The toxic dumping never happened. Its just sludge that was dumped, the same type thats dumped everwhere else in the US. Its breaksdown & is not harmful. People live, sleep eat & work in Sierra Blanca.

I've visited my 100 acres of land, and thus far did not see anything that would raise an eyebrow other than the majestic beauty that hudspeth county has to offer. I read alot of bad press about this area.I suppose if you are not open to working, a little sweat, and some inginuity this area would look awful to you.If you ever intend on buying land anywhere please do your research before buying. and yes i did buy sight unseen,But when i did see it, i fell in love with sierra blanca, my properties, and West texas. your Friend Frank

Anyone have Info on silver spur ranch? I was going to buy 120 acres there off of county road 1111 south of I-10. The ad says there is power down the county road 1111 is this true, AND IF SO How much it will cost to set a power pole? If anyone could give me any info about the property about drilling wells or what power would cost?....ANYTHING you can tell me I WOULD REALLY BE THANKFUL!... I need to know fast. THANKS ALOT! Donna

You might want to contact Rio Grande Electric Cooperative before you buy that land. Running new power lines in the desert is expensive.
