      Why would people build these then just up and abandon them??? I don't get it. Its obvious they wouldn't have water before they were built and I didn't see power poles. Really nice homes. So is this public land also???

    Living in arizona, and working here, I would say someone bought the land and wanted to start high dollar investment property. However, the market crashed several years ago and with the remoteness of this location, the properties would have been a hard sell. It is not uncommon for a couple houses to be built out here only to be model homes to sell plots to build more homes.

    There is a little known law that if you homestead a place for like 7 years and make improvements while you are there..the house automatically becomes yours legally. The house must be vacant of course to be able to get it that way, but these houses would be worth doing that..They are really nice homes if they were fixed back up.

    • @yahstino
      @yahstino 3 роки тому +7

      Sure, if you have a lot of money to throw around. I question if these places ever even had power. I don't think they would make actual good houses without some serious work which could take quite a bit of money, time and individual effort to complete. Especially considering you couldn't really hire anyone to work on the place for you. They don't even have toilets or bathtubs installed. Though if you're just looking for a roof over your head and total isolation they probably wouldn't be so bad as is... if of course you're not allergic to bees.

For water you could maybe dig a well, lay pipes which could be worth it since those are 5 or 6 houses or you could just buy a very big tank and get the water delivered once or twice a month.

What you'd get out of unfinished places like this wouldn't be worth the amount of work you'd have to put in to make one comfortable or the legal loopholes you'd have to find just to make anything happen.

    The Mohave County approved the Silverado Ranch Master Planned Community in 2006. The developers had purchased 4800 acres of land outside Kingman AZ. The community called for more than 12,000 homes, an 18 hole golf course, with more than 1600 acres of commercial development and schools. The project was scratched in 2008 due to the US Housing crash, soon after plans for a 1 billion dollar solar plant was approved by the county. Unfortunately, the developer never filed an application with the Arizona Corporate Commision, and the plant was never built.

    If this place is what I think it is, it was the Silverado master-planned community and the 200-megawatt Albiasa solar plant both slated to be built on the property.
    The project was approved in 2006. It would have covered more than 4.8K acres of land on both sides of U.S. 93 near where it intersects with Interstate 40 east of Kingman, AZ. Plans called for more than 12,000 apartments & homes, a golf course and more than 1,600 acres of commercial development, schools, utilities and a clubhouse.
    When the 2008 housing market crash stalled any further development of Silverado, the developers wanted to rezone 1,400 acres of the Silverado community for the $1B Albiasa solar plant. After much controversy over the amount of groundwater the plant would use, the county finally approved the zoning for the plant in 2009.
    But Albiasa never applied to the Arizona Corporation Commission for approval and the project was never built.

Clicking on the parcel should give you more information such as county assessed value, current taxes, taxes owing. Some will have owner's names, others not unless you visit the office personally. In other parts of the country, the Assessor records may be handled online by a different department.

    Unless there is some underground utilities that isn't visible in the videos, that is probably the reason for abandonment.
    Lots of developers bought up cheap tracts of Arizona land and built on it before they discovered the cost of bringing electrical power to the build sites. Maybe there wasn't any water nearby.
    Also, many places were developed and sold with false advertising in the '60's, '70's, and '80's. Like Meadview, AZ.
    None of those homes are so badly vandalized that they couldn't be fixed up. Most is just windows and some sheet rock. Still, if there is no water and/or no electricity, you might not want to move in unless you want to live off the grid. Solar panels will solve one of the problems.. 8^)

      A guy I worked with built a lot of homes in California pre-2006. He moved to Colorado in 2008 to find work (how I ended up meeting him). A lot of contractors built subdivisions in the middle of no-where because California was anticipating a continued and sustained housing boom, so they built these to keep up with demand. Of course, that was based on faulty speculation about the health of the housing markets.
      To make a long story short, they built thousands of homes out in the middle of no-where preparing for a housing boom and the expansion of cities, then in 2006 California housing market collapsed. In the subsequent years a lot of the subdivisions were squatted in by illegal migrants and people coming from Mexico. Rather than try to sell the homes and recoup any lost money, a lot of developers simply tore the subdivisions down.
      It's hard to say if this is an example, wherever it is, but it's likely a related situation. Markets everywhere began to collapse following California.

      So you adapt. Put cool lights behind and pull the tv to the front! Hardly a problem.

    I’m in AZ and those turrets are totally ‘07, right before crash. Some of those homes like new SUVs just left in garage.

      That's exactly what I was thinking; a property in development when the crash struck, and suddenly there was no money, so they just abandoned it. All kinds of places like that here in metro Atlanta after the crash, but it's finally starting to show signs of new development (fall of '19). Still WAY too many abandoned, trashed places though -- why don't they knock the damn things down? Total eyesores!
