WOULD YOU MAIL SOMEONE YOU DON'T KNOW YOUR CAR TITLE ON THE PROMISE THEY WOULD SEND YOU A CHECK? DON'T SEND PAYMENT FOR LAND ON THE PROMISE THE SELLER WILL DEED TO YOU! USE ESCROW.

YOU WILL NEVER REGRET BUYING MY LAND BUT YOU MIGHT REGRET SOMEONE ELSE BUYING IT!   PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS PRIOR TO BIDDING!         Few Nevada land Ebay sellers offer title insurance on their sales!   I NOT ONLY PROVIDE TITLE INSURANCE & ESCROW, I PAY THE COST!       NO MATTER WHO YOU BUY FROM MAKE CERTAIN TO GET TITLE INSURANCE!         CHECK WITH YOUR ATTORNEY! (DON'T GET BURNED!)  HE/SHE WILL CONFIRM THIS IS THE ONLY SAFE WAY TO BUY LAND!       WHY DON'T OTHER SELLERS PROVIDE TITLE INSURANCE?   #1)MANY OF THE NEVADA PARCELS FOR SALE ON EBAY HAVE BEEN PURCHASED AT TAX AUCTIONS AND TITLE COMPANIES WILL NOT TOUCH THEM! THIS PARCEL WAS NOT PURCHASED AT A TAX AUCTION!     #2) TITLE INSURANCE IS EXPENSIVE AND OTHER SELLERS ARE NOT WILLING TO PROVIDE IT. I FEEL YOU DESERVE THE SECURITY OF TITLE INSURANCE. I WILL WON'T BUY LAND WITHOUT GETTING TITLE INSURANCE. I WOULD NOT EXPECT YOU TO BUY IN THAT MANNER EITHER. IT IS TRULY A VERY DANGEROUS MOVE!       NOTE: YOU MIGHT SEE A FEW SELLERS MENTION THEY HAVE A CLEAR/CLEAN TITLE OR THEY HAVE A TITLE POLICY??? THOSE ARE SELF SERVING! THAT IS NOT PROTECTION! WHAT YOU WANT AND NEED IS TITLE INSURANCE IN YOUR NAME! THAT IS WHAT I PROVIDE!   ANYTHING LESS IS WORTHLESS! /////////////////     DO NOT CLOSE WITHOUT ESCROW & TITLE INSURANCE! IF YOUR SELLER DOES NOT OFFER CLOSING WITH ESCROW & TITLE INSURANCE BAIL OUT! PLAY IT SAFE!         IMPORTANT! MOST SELLERS WANT FULL PAYMENT WITHIN 3 DAYS AND MENTION THEY USE A "SPECIAL" WARRANTY DEED. THE ONLY THING "SPECIAL" ABOUT THIS TYPE OF DEED IS IT PROTECTS THE SELLER!   SPECIAL WARRANTY DEED   A deed in which the grantor warrants, or guarantees, the title only against defects arising during the period of his or her tenure and ownership of the property and not against defects existing before that time, generally using the language, "by, through or under the grantor but not otherwise", this type of deed offers very limited protection to the buyer!   I use a Grant Deed:    Grant, Bargain & Sale Deed (ALSO KNOW AS A WARRANTY DEED)A deed containing a guarantee that the person transferring the property actually owns the title and that it is not encumbered in any way other than what is stated on the particular deed. When title insurance is used, warranties in a deed are of no practical significance because you are insured against defects/problems. (Hence Title Insurance!)   DONT ACCEPT "SPECIAL" DEEDS AND DON'T CLOSE WITHOUT TITLE INSURANCE!       DON'T BE RUSHED TO CLOSE! DO NOT BE RUSHED BY SELLERS! MANY SELLERS GIVE 3 DAYS TO CLOSE AND PAY IN FULL? WHAT IS THE BIG HURRY ANYWAY? DO NOT ACCEPT "SPECIAL" DEEDS, DO NOT BE RUSHED TO PAY IN FULL AND DO NOT CLOSE WITHOUT ESCROW.       DEPOSIT: ALL I ASK IS THE THE DEPOSIT BE PAID WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE AUCTION CLOSING, ONCE YOU PAY THE DEPOSIT I WILL GIVE YOU UP TO 30 DAYS TO CLOSE. I WANT YOUR PURCHASE TO BE RELAXED AND ENJOYABLE. DO NOT LET SELLERS TRY AND RAM THEIR LAND DOWN YOUR THROAT WHILE GRABBING AT YOUR WALLET!             NEVADA NEVADA!  For the 20 straight years , Nevada was the fastest growing state in the USA.   20 YEARS STRAIGHT!  THE VALUE OF THIS LAND WILL ONLY GO UP! -----------------------   Nevada  Nevada is growing in leaps and bounds!

I HAVE BEEN TO THIS LAND AND THIS IS A WONDERFUL PIECE OF PROPERTY.           LAKE LAHONTAN Lahontan State Recreation Area is located on the Carson River, 18 miles west of Fallon and 33 miles northeast of Nevada's Capital, Carson City, via U.S. Highway 50. The Reno-Sparks metropolitan area is less than one hour away by auto. You can access the park from two entrances: U.S. Highway 50 east of Silver Springs and U.S. Highway 95 south of Silver Springs. The reservoir is almost 17 miles long with 69 miles of shoreline. When full, it contains 10,000 surface acres of water. The park's vegetation is dominated by high desert sagebrush communities. Wooded areas of native cottonwoods and willows are scattered along the lake shore. Riparian zones are found up and downstream of the lake along the Carson River.       SAND BEACHES ===============================================   IS IT A NEW LAKE? HARDLY, READ ON:     Prehistoric Lake Lahontan. Ancient Lake Lahontan was an enormous endorheic lake that existed during the ice age, covering much of northwestern Nevada, extending into northeastern California and southern Oregon. At its peak approximately 12,700 years ago (during a period known as the "Sehoo Highstand"), the lake had a surface area of about 8,000 square miles (20,700 km²), with its largest component centered at the location of the present Carson Sink. The depth of the lake was approximately 800 feet (240 m) at present day Pyramid Lake, and 500 feet (150 m) at the Black Rock Desert. Climate change around the end of the Pleistocene epoch led to a gradual desiccation of ancient Lake Lahontan. The lake had largely disappeared in its extended form by approximately 9,000 years ago. As the surface elevation dropped, the lake broke up into series of smaller lakes, most of which rapidly dried up leaving only a playa. These playas include the Black Rock Desert, the Carson Sink and the Humboldt Sink. The only modern day remnants existing as true lakes are Pyramid Lake and Walker Lake. Winnemucca Lake has been dry since the 1930s and Honey Lake periodically desiccates. The ancient shoreline is evidenced by tufa formations throughout the area.Surprisingly, the watershed feeding Lake Lahontan is not thought to have been significantly wetter during its highstand than it is currently. Rather, its desiccation is thought to be mostly due to increase in the evaporation rate as the climate warmed. Recent computer simulations (using the DSSAM Model and other techniques) indicate that if precipitation and evaporation rates within the watershed were maintained at their historical yearly maximum and minimum, respectively, Lake Lahontan would return.The existence of the lake coincided roughly with the first appearance of humans in that region of North America. Archaelogical evidence exists along the ancient lake shore of early human habitation. -------       LAKE LAHANTON 1900's Lahontan Dam and reservoir are part of the Newlands Project, one of the first irrigation projects selected for construction following passage of the Reclamation Act of June 17, 1902. In 1905 it became the first to deliver water from works constructed by the United State Government. The project diverts and stores water from the Truckee and Carson River Basins to irrigate lands near Fallon and to produce hydroelectric power. Drainage water from the irrigated lands flow into the Stillwater Wildlife Management Area, one of the finest waterfowl areas in Nevada. The dam: construction started in 1912 and was completed in 1915, is 162 feet high, 1,700 feet long at the top, and contains 733.00 cubic yards of earth fill. The reservoir has a storage capacity of 274,000 acre-feet when full.The reservoir was named after the Ancient Lake Lahontan which covered over 8,500 square miles of the western Great Basin during the Ice Age. It's ancient shore terraces may be seen high on the mountainsides of the surrounding region.Lahontan became a Nevada State Recreation Area on July 1, 1971.        EASY ACCESS! =================================================================== =========================================================    THIS PARCEL PROVIDES SPECTACULAR MOUNTAIN VIEWS, EASY ACCESS AND CLOSE PROXIMITY TO TOWN AND PAVED ROADS.    THIS AREA IS SAFE FROM FLOODS AND WASHES! MOST PARCELS WITH THESE ATTRIBUTES HAVE ASKING PRICES OF $150,000-$200,000 OR MORE!
