- Landlocked - But Not Necessarily Without Options
This parcel is currently believed to be landlocked, meaning there is no obvious recorded road access directly to the property. However, experienced land investors know that landlocked does not always mean inaccessible.
Potential access solutions may include:
1. Existing Recorded Easements
A title search may reveal previously recorded access or utility easements benefiting the parcel.
2. Negotiated Access Agreement
Neighboring landowners are often willing to grant access easements in exchange for compensation.
3. Easement by Necessity
Arizona recognizes easements by necessity in certain situations where a parcel has no reasonable access. Courts have historically allowed access rights to prevent land from becoming unusable.
4. Private Way of Necessity
Arizona law provides mechanisms whereby landlocked property owners may pursue legal access through neighboring lands when justified.
Buyers should perform their own due diligence regarding legal and physical access.
Rio Rico continues to attract buyers seeking affordable Arizona land while remaining close to larger employment and shopping centers.
Highway Access
The area is served by:
- Interstate 19
