Before you buy

  • Who owns it. City, county, state, land trust or HOA stays open. Developer or LLC is a future building site. The assessor map shows the owner in one click.
  • What the plat calls it. A tract labeled Open Space or Park is dedicated; Future Development, Reserved or Utility is not.
  • Wildfire and insurance. Foothills and south-metro open space is grass and scrub oak that burns. Bound quote during inspection.
  • HOA open-space fees. In master-planned communities the residents pay for the open space through the HOA. Read the budget line and the reserve study.

The Colorado
Open-Space Checklist

What "backs to open space" is worth, and how to prove it before you pay

The simple answer

"Backs to open space" is worth a premium only when a city, county, the state or a land trust owns the land. A greenbelt owned by the developer is a future building site. One lookup on the assessor map settles it.

Sample from page 3: Open space versus greenbelt

  • Open space: land set aside permanently, owned by a government, a land trust or an HOA.
  • Greenbelt: any strip of grass between lots. The name promises nothing.
  • Developer-owned: a future phase with sod on it. No premium.
  • The lookup: the county assessor map shows the owner in one click.
