Parcel lines, acreage and assessment are looked up in the county's own records, and the town is asked what it currently allows. Nothing is assumed from an old listing.

Listed before and it didn't sell?

Six questions every parcel raises.

Greene County runs from the Hudson River towns up into the Catskill Mountains, so a parcel here can be river-town frontage, open valley farmland or steep mountain woodland — and each one raises different questions.

  • Access and frontage

    How the parcel is legally reached: town road frontage, a deeded right of way, or a shared drive. Access shapes what a buyer can finance.

  • Zoning and permitted use

    What the town currently allows, and what needs a variance or a permit. This is confirmed with the town — never assumed from a listing.

  • Utilities, well and septic

    Power at the road, and whether water and septic are existing, permitted, or still to be tested. Each answer changes the buyer pool.

  • Terrain and usable land

    Slope, wet areas, ledge and tree cover decide how much of the acreage a buyer can actually use.

  • Survey and boundaries

    Whether a survey exists, how old it is, and where the corners actually are. Boundaries are confirmed by a surveyor.

  • Pricing and presentation

    How the parcel is mapped, photographed and described, and what comparable land did — with the assumptions written out.

Towns covered here include Catskill, Cairo, Coxsackie, Athens, Windham, Hunter, Jewett. Zoning, permitted use, utilities and boundaries are confirmed with the town, a surveyor and your attorney — nothing on this page answers them for your parcel.
