Wasilla Real Estate News, Valley Market Real Estate

This is a gorgeous newly remodeled home in great shape. There are 5 good sized bedrooms and 3 full baths, 3056sqft total. Beautiful back yard, paved drive and parking. The owner was able to pick the nicest lot in the subdivision when he moved in and this is it!

There is both a breakfast room and more formal dining room, living and huge family room. Ceilings are higher than normal and there is plenty of storage space in each closet. Large 2 car garage, and side deck off kitchen for barbecuing.

You do this through the Department of Natural Resources Well Lot Tracking website here. Use the search menu on this website to find properties around your prospective property. You will need to get used to reading well logs to understand what they are telling you.

Remember that the cost of drilling a well right now is about $40 a foot. That does not include the cost of installing a pump and a line to your house. So if you have to drill a 300 foot deep well you are looking at $12,000. Hopefully you will only need to go down about 60 feet.

Go to matsugov.us and mouse over the “property and maps” tab. Click on “my property” and a search menu will appear. You can search by owner, address, and several other ways. I use owner and address the most.

Once you find the property you are looking for just click the link and a page will appear showing detail on the property. If the property has a building on it click the “show building information” link.

Another very useful feature is the “tax map”. This feature has actually deteriorated in the last few months. Hopefully the borough will improve this soon. The current system may be a little cumbersome for people not familiar with maps but I still use it and find it handy.

If you have any questions about using this site send a comment. I’ll give better explanations when needed.
