Sometimes — it depends on the zone, parcel history, and tests like Oregon's forest "template dwelling" rules. Never assume. Kimmy verifies dwelling eligibility with Douglas County Planning before her buyers commit to any bare-land purchase.

Most residential wells in the county run $15,000–$40,000+ depending on depth and site access, and drillers can't guarantee water. Reviewing nearby well logs — public record in Oregon — is the best predictor of what you're in for.

It's the county's test of whether soil on a parcel can support a septic system, and what type. A standard system might cost $15,000–$25,000; a sand-filter or ATT system can double that. Kimmy builds septic feasibility into offers on unimproved land so you never own a parcel you can't use.
