TAXES: The ranch is in the Williamson Act. Improvements such as trees, wells, and irrigation systems offer massive amounts of depreciation. Please consult your CPA and hear about these tax advantages for yourself.

LEASES: There are no leases on the subject property.

OIL, GAS, & MINERAL RIGHTS: All oil, gas, and mineral rights held by the seller will be transferred to the buyer at the close of escrow.

WATER: Two wells were drilled in 1960 and the other two were drilled in 1981. All four pumps and wells have been maintained at or above the industry standard and operate as if they were drilled yesterday. This orchard's close proximity to the Sacramento River provides ample recharge to its aquifer. Monitoring wells in the surrounding area have an exceptional history of maintaining their water levels. Additionally, the 30-foot static water level results in affordable pumping costs.

SOILS: The soil profile is mainly comprised of a class one sandy loam, known as Gianella loam. The uniformity maintains itself until a depth of 24 feet and beneath this fertile topsoil is a gravel rock stratum. This combination makes for ideal water drainage. See attached soil map below.

AMENITIES: At the northwest corner of the property you'll find a boat ramp and dock on a private fishing lake that boasts some of the best fishing in the state. Additionally, there is private access to the Sacramento River at the southwest corner of the ranch.
