Local data
Diamond Bell Ranch land at a glance
Tax-roll figures cover vacant-coded lots on the Pima County Assessor's parcel records whose legal description begins with the Diamond Bell Ranch family (every unit and spelling variant), all of them in unincorporated Pima County; this is a recorded subdivision-family label from normalized legal text, not municipal limits, a surveyed boundary, available inventory or a buildability finding in Pima County. Local rules and services are sourced below.
| Vacant residential lots | 4,739 parcels classified vacant residential on the 2027 Arizona parcel and assessment data [1] |
|---|---|
| Most common lot size | Acre-plus (46,000–52,000 sq ft): 38% of vacant lots; next, one-acre homesite at 26%. Median lot: 1.13 acre (49,028 sq ft). [1] |
| Typical county full cash value | $5,000 median county full cash value for a vacant lot; the middle half fall between $4,500 and $5,000 [1] |
| Jurisdiction of record | The Pima County Assessor's parcel layer codes every Diamond Bell Ranch vacant lot's jurisdiction as unincorporated Pima County, not a city or town; Pima County Development Services is the office that issues zoning and building permits here. [6],[2] |
| Zoning is mixed, not one code | County records show about 93% of the subdivision's vacant-coded lots carry zoning code CR-1, with the remaining lots split mainly between codes SH and SR; owners should confirm their own lot's code with Development Services before planning any use. [6],[2] |
| Septic needs two approvals | Pima County requires a construction authorization before a septic system is built and a separate discharge authorization after a final field inspection, under state Aquifer Protection Permit rules and County Code Title 7. [3] |
| Subdivision sanitary record | Because Diamond Bell Ranch was recorded as a subdivision, the county's process calls for a Certificate of Approval of Sanitary Facilities covering the subdivision's water and waste service, not just one lot at a time. [4] |
| County road mileage | Pima County Transportation maintains more than 2,230 miles of roadway across unincorporated Pima County under a 10-year repair plan; not every platted road in an older subdivision is on that maintained list. [5] |
| Decades of recorded deeds | The county's live parcel layer carries a Diamond Bell Ranch deed recording dated January 1970, among its earliest, showing lots here have changed hands for more than fifty years. [6] |
| Saguaro National Park access route | The National Park Service routes drivers south of Tucson onto Ajo Way (State Route 86) and west to the Tucson Mountain District gate; that same highway continues west through Three Points toward Diamond Bell Ranch. [7] |

Pricing
What is a lot in Diamond Bell Ranch worth?
What moves the price in Diamond Bell Ranch
Zoning and septic rules vary lot by lot
Diamond Bell Ranch is not one zoning class. County records put roughly 93% of its vacant-coded lots under code CR-1, with the rest split between SH and SR; each code changes what can be built and how large a lot must be. Before building, a new septic system needs a Pima County construction authorization and, after a final field inspection, a separate discharge authorization under state Aquifer Protection Permit rules and County Code Title 7. Because the subdivision itself was recorded with the county, a Certificate of Approval of Sanitary Facilities covers its sanitary history broadly, not one lot specifically. None of that tells a buyer whether a given lot has a well, power or a cleared pad; that is still a parcel-by-parcel check. [6],[2],[3],[4]
Lot size swings widely under one subdivision name
Most vacant-coded lots in this tax-roll scope are acre-pluss, 38% of the 4,739 lots counted, and the median parcel runs 1.13 acres. That range matters here because Diamond Bell Ranch's numbered units group lots by map and block rather than by one uniform size, so two lots sharing the subdivision name can differ sharply in usable area. A larger parcel does not by itself mean better access, a cleared building pad or confirmed utilities; those still need a lot-specific check before pricing. [1]
County full cash value here runs low, not a market price
The median county full cash value in this scope is $5,000, with a middle range of $4,500–$5,000. Full cash value is an assessor number used to calculate property tax; it is not a sale price, an appraisal or a Parcel Buyers offer, and several Pima County lot-farm subdivisions carry values this low. Pima County's only 2025 recorded-sale sample for still-vacant lots is a thin, countywide figure of 28 warranty-deed sales; it is too small to break out by subdivision, so this page does not show a separate 2025 sale figure for Diamond Bell Ranch. A parcel review instead weighs zoning, septic path, road access and title before any cash offer is made. [1]
Road access is not guaranteed by the subdivision name
Pima County Transportation maintains more than 2,230 miles of roadway across unincorporated Pima County, prioritized under a 10-year repair plan built from pavement-condition scores. That countywide total does not say which specific roads inside an older platted subdivision like Diamond Bell Ranch made the maintained list and which did not. A road shown on the recorded plat can still be an unmaintained public right-of-way in practice, which is part of what a parcel inspection checks before a cash offer goes out. [5]
Common situations
Selling land in Diamond Bell Ranch in these situations
You inherited a lot bought decades ago
Yes, you can sell an inherited lot even if the purchase goes back decades. The county's own live parcel layer carries a Diamond Bell Ranch deed recording from January 1970, among the oldest on file, so a chain of title stretching back through multiple owners is normal here, not unusual. Parcel Buyers closes through an independent title company, and the title search is what determines which heirship documents are needed before closing. [6]
The lot has never had a septic system or a building on it
Yes, Parcel Buyers buys vacant-coded lots with no septic system, no well and no structure, including lots with no water, sewer or road work done. Before anyone builds here, Pima County requires a septic construction authorization and a later discharge authorization, plus whatever the lot's recorded zoning code (mostly CR-1, with some SH and SR lots) allows. None of that has to be finished before a sale; our land inspection is the only contingency, and a failed inspection costs the seller nothing. [3],[6]
You live outside Arizona and have never seen the lot
Yes, you can sell without visiting. Parcel Buyers buys land across the country, not only in Arizona, and the Pima County Assessor's own parcel layer does not publish an owner mailing-state breakdown for this subdivision, so this page cannot cite a specific out-of-state share here. You can sign electronically, close by mail through an independent title company, and be paid by check or wire without traveling to Tucson. [6]
You're not sure which zoning code your lot carries
That uncertainty is common in Diamond Bell Ranch, because the subdivision spans three different county zoning codes. About 93% of its vacant-coded lots are zoned CR-1, with the remainder split between SH and SR, and each code changes what a future buyer could build. Pima County Development Services can confirm the exact code for one parcel; a seller does not need to resolve that before accepting a cash offer, since Parcel Buyers checks zoning as part of its own review. [6],[2]

Questions
Selling land in Diamond Bell Ranch: common questions
Is Diamond Bell Ranch its own town or city?
No. Every Diamond Bell Ranch lot sits in unincorporated Pima County, not inside a city or town. Pima County Development Services, not a city hall, issues zoning verifications and building permits for lots here.
What zoning code applies to my lot in Diamond Bell Ranch?
It depends on the lot. County records show about 93% of the subdivision's vacant-coded lots are zoned CR-1, with the rest split mainly between SH and SR. Pima County Development Services can confirm which code applies to one specific parcel.
Do I need a septic permit before I can sell my lot?
No. You can sell a vacant lot with no septic system in place. A septic construction authorization and a later discharge authorization are only required when someone actually builds and installs a system, under state Aquifer Protection Permit rules and Pima County Code Title 7.
Is there a 2025 sale price for Diamond Bell Ranch lots?
Not a subdivision-specific one. Pima County's only 2025 recorded-sale sample for still-vacant lots is a thin, countywide figure of 28 warranty-deed sales, too small to break out by subdivision. The county full cash value shown on this page is a tax assessment, not that sale figure and not a market price.
Will Parcel Buyers buy a lot with an old or unclear legal description?
Yes. Diamond Bell Ranch has recorded deeds going back to at least January 1970, and older legal descriptions are common here. Parcel Buyers closes through an independent title company, which runs the title search and tells you what, if anything, is needed to clear the chain of title before closing.

Guides for your situation
- How Cash Land Buyers Price Offers
A cash-land offer may start with verified sales of land with similar use, then adjust those sales for meaningful differences.[1] Buyers may also account for access, utilities, legal use, size, shape, flood and soil questions, title issues, demand, and costs and risk they will carry. No universal assessed-value percentage applies. Compare each written offer by expected net proceeds, contingencies, seller work, and timing—not one asking price or headline number.
- What Happens at a Land Closing?
At a professionally handled land closing, a title, escrow, or settlement agent coordinates the title requirements, transfer documents, buyer's funds, settlement accounting, and recording. The agent disburses money under the sales contract rather than merely because the seller signed.[1] The exact documents, order, and payment timing depend on the contract, state law, and closing agent's instructions, and a title search does not replace land-condition due diligence.[3][6]
- Can You Sell Land With a Lien?
Yes. Land with a lien can often be sold, but signing a deed does not by itself erase a valid claim. The lien may need to be paid, released, discharged, or otherwise resolved under the law that applies. With the seller's consent, an approved payoff can come from sale proceeds at closing. If the balance or lien is wrong, dispute it before closing and require proof of the cure.

How we made this page
Parcel Buyers is a land-buying company based in Florida. We buy vacant land directly from owners and publish these local pages so owners can see what land in their area is doing before they sell, to us or anyone else. We count the tax-roll figures ourselves from state data, take local rules and fees from the official sources listed below, and use AI tools to help research and draft the text. Every number links to its source, and we update the page when the data changes.
Method and sources
Parcel and assessment figures cover vacant-coded lots on the Pima County Assessor's parcel records whose legal description begins with the Diamond Bell Ranch family (every unit and spelling variant), all of them in unincorporated Pima County; this is a recorded subdivision-family label from normalized legal text, not municipal limits, a surveyed boundary, available inventory or a buildability finding. Source [1] is our own aggregate count of public parcel records from the named Arizona county assessor. A place scope may be a ZIP area, assessor market area or normalized subdivision family; use the exact scope and do not treat it as municipal limits or a buildability finding. No free sale-price source was available for this area, so no sale row is shown. Vacant-lot counts use mohave: use codes 0001-0004 and 0011-0014, improvement value 0, non-exempt, positive acreage, with government and HOA owners excluded in-query. Pinal: use codes 0011, 0013 and 0014 with legal class 02RL, with government and HOA owners excluded in-query. Cochise: use_code 0011 or 0013 and accttype Vacant. Santa Cruz: IMPVAL=0 and LANDVAL>0, excluding county-owned, under-0.05-acre, and HOA records. Vacant nonresidential and agricultural parcels are not derived (0). Pima: parcel use 0011, 0012, 0013 or 0014 with positive GIS acreage. Graham: account type Vacant with positive GIS acreage. La Paz: property use code 13 or 14 with positive acreage. Government and HOA owners are excluded in-query in all three; because none of these three layers carries an improvement-value field, each county was screened with a seeded 150-centroid sample against the FEMA/ORNL USA Structures public layer (Pima 1/150, Graham 0/150, La Paz 4/150). Lot sizes use mohave PARCEL_SIZE acres; Pinal LANDSF square feet or STATEDAREA acres when blank; Cochise acres; Santa Cruz Acreage. Acre fields are multiplied by 43,560 and bucketed with the Parcel Buyers lot-size chart ([low, high) square feet). Values use county full cash value on the current record: Mohave FULL_CASH_VALUE, Pinal CNTASSDVAL, Cochise fcv and Santa Cruz FCV. These are assessor values, not sale prices or buildability findings. Pima full cash value (FCV). Graham and La Paz publish no value field, so their value row is withheld. Owner locations use owner mailing-address state on the county record; in_state = Arizona; blank state = unknown. Treat medians as a guide to county records, not as an offer or an appraisal.
