It is not guaranteed that the property has a right-of-way or that it is not landlocked. Property is sold in gross and not by the acre.

Persons are encouraged to make a visual inspection of the property within the limits of the law and to obtain an independent title search, at their own cost, prior to bidding on any of the properties to determine the suitableness of the property for their purposes.
