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. ]]> http://valleymarket.com/2013/04/23/buyers-tips-1-using-the-mat-su-borough-website/feed/ 0 http://valleymarket.com/2013/04/17/whipple-painting-services-llc/ http://valleymarket.com/2013/04/17/whipple-painting-services-llc/#comments Wed, 17 Apr 2013 18:36:44 +0000 Marty http://valleymarket.com/?p=7355
