Real Estate Futures

When a real estate opportunity appears but you can't make the full financial commitment yet, U.S. Land Bureau's Real Estate Option lets you lock in your purchase price today with a small $500 deposit and a signed option agreement, then complete the purchase up to five years in the future — regardless of where market prices move.

How it works

• Pay a $500 deposit and sign a real estate option agreement.
• Your purchase price is locked for up to 5 years.
• Complete your purchase as early as 16 months, or as late as 5 years, from the date you sign.

Currently available only in Colorado City / Rye, Pueblo County, Colorado — about two hours south of Denver, with affordable property taxes and scenic views of Greenhorn Mountain and St. Charles Peak.
