Let’s talk about septic systems, sewer access, and what they mean when you sell your NC property.
First, the basics
If you have some unused North Carolina land that’s outside of city limits, you should know that it won’t have sewer access.
This means that if you want to construct a building or other indoor structure there, you’ll need to pay to have septic system installed.
Having a septic system is like having your own private sewage system, since your sewage isn’t hooked up to the city.
Not all properties can have septic systems.
Even if your property has access to water lines from the county, it doesn’t necessarily mean you can install a septic system in the ground.
Also, even if a neighboring property has a septic tank, your property may not be able to accommodate one.
The thing is, your property’s soil needs to be suitable for septic in order to have a system installed. The good news is that septic technology has gotten better in recent years, so more types of soil can have a septic system.
We can help you determine if your property can have a septic system.
At DKL Housing Solutions, we have soil scientists evaluate the land to make sure we can put a septic system in it. If you’re unsure if your property can have a septic system, reach out to us.
You can still get a great deal, even if your entire property can’t accommodate septic systems.
Consider this story: We recently bought 86 acres in Wake County. But we’re only putting 20 homesites because there’s only that much soil that could accommodate septic systems.
The property was still marketable, but it took extra time to evaluate the soil.
But that didn’t mean the property owner didn’t couldn’t sell it. In fact, they still got a great deal from us.
To see if you can get a great deal on your property, schedule a meeting here.
