Colorado River Horse Acreage For Sale – 9502 Evans Lane, Mohave Valley AZ 86440 – No Longer Tribal Dispute Land

You would be amazed to learn how long, contentious and costly battles have been fought over land on the Colorado River.

A recent case, the Aria Case, that started in the early 1990s was settled and put to rest just last year, over a triangle of land on the Colorado River known as the ‘disputed triangle’.

The main issues were whether, through gradual accretion or sudden avulsion, the borders of California, Arizona and the Fort Mohave Indian Reservation were changed over the past 100-ish years–and who had claim to ownership of the disputed land.

The Tribe and the Aria family (gathering other landowners over time) differed over what those boundaries–and ownership–actually were in the present day.

Several dozen disputed parcels along the Colorado River were, after much expert testimony and many studies, deemed to be rightfully owned by their individual owners.

The Tribe appealed the ruling, but withdrew their appeal last year.

Through these past 17 years, getting title insurance issued for these parcels was impossible, making them difficult and risky to transfer for all parties.

The Aria ruling eliminates those particular obstacles to clearing title (subject to whatever other liens or encumberances exist on any individual parcels).

The Aria Case is a fascinating story of how Mother Nature can potentially change the claim to land without ‘human’ intervention.

This wonderful parcel previously among the disputed properties is now available for purchase.

9502 Evans Lane may be one of the best off-River properties available because of its corner location and bordering Tribal agricultural land.

This 1.38 acre land parcel at the extreme north end of Evans Lane, a street of equestrian estates and ranches, has frontage on both Evans Lane and Indian Road, with nothing but wide open spaces to the north and the Colorado River just a few blocks west at Dike Road, the most exclusive Colorado River custom waterfront homes location in our area.

The parcel is fenced and gated, with mature trees (previous old residence has been torn down; a carport remains from the previous structure. Lot will require clearing and some tree-trimming).

Mohave County RE zoning permits horses, AND 2 full size homes per lot.

Also, per County, the lot may be split into 2 lots and each may have 2 homes as long as there is sufficient room for adequate utilities (septic tank and well).

So with the proper permits and approvals, there is multifamily application possible with this property.

Offered at a reasonable 60,000, the owners will consider any terms that make sense.

See YOU at the RIVER!

Bullhead City Real Estate – Lamenting “The One That Got Away”

I occasionally come across consumers who are unable to get past the house that they didn’t get.

They can’t seem to get it out of their mind. They compare everything else to that one lost opportunity.

Many of them will blame their agent. Sometimes, that may be true, sadly.

But more often than not, it is because:

  • they took too long to decide, and someone else who was able to move fast snagged it
  • they made an unrealistic offer, thinking the seller was obligated to negotiate
  • it was a short sale and lost to foreclosure, or
  • the bank countered at a price they wouldn’t pay–even though they loved the house
  • they were too picky about small stuff
  • they were not playing for a win-win and the seller rejected their offer outright
  • they were looking at homes before they were ready, willing and able to buy

I understand disappointment and even heartbreak. And the last thing we ever want is a sad client!

And yeah, some things are just not fair.

But you have no choice except to move on, adjust your expectations and realize that perfect doesn’t exist except in a skewed hindsight perception.

You can’t even BUILD perfect (although you can come close and it will cost you)

If you see a home that fits 80-90% of your criteria, and you really love it, you can bet that someone out there is also eyeing it too. So take your best shot out of the gate and give a little to get a lot!

What you CAN do that is very empowering is be:

  1. prepared
  2. ready to move in an instant, and
  3. realistic about your choices, budget and the market

I don’t like the cliche, “if it’s meant to be”, either. Even if sometimes it is true.

I feel that more is within our control than outside it.

Part of that control is being willing and able to see clearly what you have to work with!

Still. like a jilted lover whose subsequent choices just never ‘measure up’ . . .

. . . if you are stuck in the “one that got away” rut . . .

don’t be surprised if you end up with nothing.

Because that kind of attitude is a self-fulfilling prophecy that will suspend and disable you.

Shake it off and work with your agent on a game plan.

Otherwise, you might just be lamenting about the ‘great agent who got away’ too.

Sometimes the most powerful magic is simply a shift in perception.

Let us help you get what you want.

Sushi Bars in Bullhead City, AZ ~ Maki Sushi, 1970 Hwy 95, BHC 86442

Sushi is one of my healthiest guilty pleasures. :)

When we moved here from Los Angeles in the early 90s, I went through severe sushi withdrawals. This is a casino town with steakhouses, fast food and the omnipresent buffets.

Sushi bars and Indian food were what I missed the most.

In recent years, we did get a couple of good (and good is key) sushi bars in Bullhead City and Laughlin. Here’s one:

Maki Sushi

1970 Highway 95
Bullhead City, AZ 86442-6751
(928) 763-2522

Maki Sushi is on the Bullhead City side of the Colorado River, located in the heart of town on Highway 95 between Baseline and Palma, across from Hastings Books and Palace Jewelry.

I love the koi pond with waterfall inside (near the register, of course — good Feng Shui), the samurai swords on the walls and the live orchids. The service is great and the wait staff actually pretty entertaining. The sushi bar artist is an AZ Cardinals fan and the game WILL be on one of the big screen TVs inside. You’ll hear him laughing gleefully when his team scores, while he creates your edible art.

They have a great selection of sushi, sashimi, tempura and even some Western dishes. My husband, who grew up in Florida, had enough seafood in his youth to not prefer it–he loves the Beef Teriyaki which works for those too squeamish to, or for whatever reason unable to consume raw fish. I’ll have yours! :)

We’re still hoping for Indian cuisine to arrive. Perhaps you should buy one of these great  Bullhead City commercial sites and locate your restaurant here! Tandoori Chicken, Curried Chickpeas, Raita and Naan would work for me big time!

MMMMM!

5 Best Reasons to Move to Fort Mohave

Here are the 5 best reasons to move to Fort Mohave:

5. Gambling On The Colorado River: If you are considering moving to Fort Mohave, you will be within 15 minutes of Laughlin NV Casinos like the Avi Resort with its white sandy beach and one of the best boat launches on the River. And 12 miles away, all the glorious riverfront casinos on Casino Drive in Laughlin like the Aquarius, Tropicana, Harrah’s and Golden Nugget, among many others.

4. The best golfing In Arizona: Fort Mohave has several PGA golf courses to choose from within a few minutes in any direction–from the spectacular new courses at Laughlin Ranch Golf Club or The Greens/Cielo at Los Lagos to the PGA course at Desert Lakes to Desert Springs Fairways at the Avi, Willow Valley to Jack Smith Park in Needles, CA.

3. The Colorado River: Buying a home in Fort Mohave means you’re within a few miles max of the beautiful Colorado River, with its fresh cool water and warm dry climate. And Arizona’s best sandy beaches you can pull up to in your Jeep, dig your toes into the sand, pop a beer and relax while you watch the world float by . . .

2. The best medical services in Northwestern Arizona: The brand new, state of the art Valley View Medical Center offers assurance to those needing to relocate to Arizona for health reasons. It’s also a great place to work, I’ve heard from some of the medical personnel I’ve helped relocate here! And there are many medical positions available in Fort Mohave, if you’re looking to make a professional change.

1. Best weather in the USA: I guess it depends. :) But Move to Fort Mohave and you will rarely experience cold or wet weather. Snow doesn’t happen here (I’m not saying it’s impossible but after 16 years of living here, I saw it come close only once–and it evaporated before hitting the ground) Fort Mohave AZ temperatures average in the 60s in winter to 110s in summer and our precipitation is annually just under an inch. Humidity sits at a comfy 5% except during the few weeks of Arizona’s monsoon season in late Summer.

So what are you waiting for? It’s time to move to Fort Mohave! Give me a shout and I’ll show you how.
