A MUDSLIDE OCCURRED above parcel 075-112-16 back in 2023. This MUDSLIDE was a natural disaster and fell onto the lower parcels below the above street (Bideawee Way which is a right of way). Bideawee Way sustained damage, but is still useable and intact. If you go to assess the properties in person please do not disturb the neighbors. Entering PRIVATE PROPERTY is at your own risk!
Bideawee Way is not maintaned by the county road works department. It is perfectly legal to access any part of this right of way. It is an easement for all property owners and is to be maintained by the property owners on Bideawee Way. All main local raods to reach the Lompico Subvision are virtually flat and well maintained.
The lots are currently UNBUILDABLE. It will be your responsibilty to have knowledge of property development or to contact a knowledgeable contractor or property developer. They will need a safe platform for a home and suitable utilitie. The Santa Cruz County Planning and Development Department will be of little help to you if you do not know or understand property development procedures.
The Parcels are NOT FLAT. They have grades of 10% to 75% inclines. If you ask Santa Cruz County if you can build on the land they will tell you “the lots are unbuildable”. If you ask a contractor or property developer they may help you understand the development procedure for this location (unless you yourself have these skills). IT WILL BE THE BUYER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT PROCEDURES FOR SANTA CRUZ COUNTY.
There is no water meter on any of the auctioned lots. There is no public sewage available in the neighborhood. There is no source of electricity on the parcels. There are no natural gas lines in the neighborhood.
– THERE ARE NO UTILITIES ON THIS PROPERTY! –
– THE LOTS ARE CURRENTLY UNBUILDABLE –
– DO NOT ENTER THESE PROPERTIES UNTIL YOU OWN THEM –
– DO NOT DISTURB THE NEIGHBORS –
– If you decide to buy this land with no intent to develop it that will be perfectly up to the you.
PLEASE CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING;
– THE SELLER WILL HOLD NO ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE ITEM SOLD IN THIS AUCTION AFTER PURCHASE. ONLY WINNER’S RECEPTION OF ITEM –
– I will answer what questions I can on this post or through Ebay messaging. This post will be part of the binding contract.
I WILL ONLY EXCHANGE PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH THE WINNER WHEN THE PAYMENT CLEARS.
– Bid with confidence – This item is guaranteed to be delivered –

48.6 miles from The Monterey Bay Aquarium
and 75 miles from San Francisco
The land was surveyed in 2019 and has a registered monument. There are also other monuments within a hundred foot radius from parcels. It is always a good idea to get an updated survey before developement.
There are homes close by and they are on less than one (1) acre of land. The parcels are small because they are originally meant to be developed in the same manner as residential parcels in San Francisco.
Homes in this subdivision of this Felton, California community are priced at $600,000 to $1,000,000+

California Civil Code 829 states that the owner of land in fee has the right to the surface and everything permanently situated beneath or above it. In essence, the landowner owns the ground, as well as anything attached to it, both above and below the surface. This includes buildings, trees, and the soil itself.
This is not a scam. Bid with confidence!
COMMON POTENTIAL QUESTIONS and ANSWERS.
Q: Can I put a home on this land? – A: NO! Not in its current condition.
Q: Can I make the land buildable for a residential home? – A: That is between the owner/contractor and the Santa Cruz County Planning Department.
Q: Is there money owed on these properties? – A: NO! There is not a penny owed on any of these parcels.
Q: Are there Liens, Easements, or Encumbrances on these lots? – A: NO! There are NOT in the legal sense. Although the MUDSLIDE created a partial obstruction (this does not constitute a legal encumbrance).
Q: Are there legal stipulations involved with the MUDSLIDE? – A: No. It was an uncontrollable rain storm that caused the damage on a public easement.
Q: What can be done about the MUDSLIDE damage? – A: Again, that is between the owner/contractor and the Santa Cruz County Planning Department.
Q: Can I go and physically walk on the properties? – A: No. You are free to walk on Bideawee Way or Lake Boulevard all you want, but not on private lots.
Q: How much will it cost to develop this land? – A: That question must go to a knowledgeable contractor or property developer.
Q: Santa Cruz County said a lot of the land in the area will permantly remain unbuildable, is this true? – A: Very Likely! Some parcels are totally vertical at a 90% mountain side slope. The parcels in this auction are steep but only as steep as stated.
Q: Will a contractor or developer be able to realistically develop the land in this auction? – A: About half of the property in total is at a 10% to 20% slope the other total half of the land is at a 70% to 75% slope (ask your contractor/developer if he can work with this).
Q: Is this property landlocked or otherwise legally inaccessible? – A: No! Absolutely not. You can enter from Lake Boulevard or Bideawee Way once you own the property.
Q: What if I have any doubts about this property or the seller? – A: The solution for this question is easy. Do not bid.
Q: Why does the selling process of this auction leave the buyer waiting for the whole buying process to be completed? – A: Scammers, Frauds, and people with insufficient funds must be screened. Plus, currency screening and processing time for the deeds takes time.
Q: Can I contact the seller outside of Ebay regarding this item? – A: No. That will violate Ebay policy. Only the winning bidder can make personal contact.
Q: Why do I have to wait for my payment to completely clear before I receive my item? – A: It is this same standard procedure in all real estate. Look it up.
Q: Is the property in a good neighborhood? – A: I don’t know. The neighborhood is quiet, rural, and full of redwoods and ferns.
Q: Can I ask the neighbors if I can develop these lots? – A: That question is for your contractor and/or property developer and the Santa Cruz County Planning Department.
Q: Why does the GIS map and Google maps appear to show inaccuracies? – A: GIS and Google have disclaimers that their maps are slightly inaccurate and they hold no accountability for those inaccuracies. A state certified surveyor is the most accurate mapper.
Q: Can I buy the land to make a garden, botanical nursery, or to use it for something else later? – A: That is perfectly up to the owner’s discretion.
Q: What is the closest major street? – A: Mount Herman Road and also Highway 9 are close by. Highway 17 will take you to Santa Cruz or to San Jose.
Q: Are all the roads accessible to get to this property? – A: Yes! only about the last 1/4 mile starts to elevate and get narrow for two cars to pass next to each other. Lake Boulevard is county maintained and so is every road to that point. Bideawee Way is privately maintained.
Q: How high are these parcels from the flat streets? – A: I don’t know. My guess is between 100 to 250 feet above Lompico Road.

DISACLAIMER: Revisions have been made in this post. I will not deter anyone from buying this land solely for asset and ownership purposes. That is your choice. After purchase the seller cannot be held accountable for buyer’s development budget miscalculations, underskilled contractors, buyer’s indecisiveness, or conflict with county codes, etc. Contractors have actually seen the property and were eager to develop it. Santa Cruz County has been willing to allow development on it. This real estate opportunity is truly elevated above others that you will find on Ebay and even on MLS listings. Don’t miss out on this high potential investment!!
If you have any doubts, Do Not Bid. My guarantee is that you will receive the item you legitimately pay for. My 100% feedback matters to me, but more so my standing as a good human being. Happy bidding to you!
