02

QUESTIONS GROUNDED IN THIS PLACE

Your Los Altos Hills
land questions.

Have a tax bill, an inherited deed, or simply a map pin? Start with what you have.

What should I send for land in Los Altos Hills?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Santa Clara County. Los Altos Hills’s 9.07 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Los Altos Hills property in Leeward Hills?+

No. Leeward Hills is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Los Altos Hills boundary and individual properties can cross landscape transitions. Open the regional source and the topographic map, then locate the actual parcel before applying regional context.

Can I use Palo Alto as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 2.1 miles north of Los Altos Hills’s. That distance is not a driving route, utility connection, or comparable-sale adjustment. Share the actual access road and parcel records so we can review your property on its own facts.

Can I request an offer without being near Los Altos Hills?+

Yes. Begin online with the property location and ownership details. Tell Larry G and the team what you know about the land, access, and any co-owners. We review the parcel before deciding whether to propose a purchase; if a sale moves forward, the closing company can explain remote signing arrangements.
