FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do virtually all Elbert County properties use wells and septic?

Elbert County has very limited municipal utility infrastructure outside Elizabeth. Well/septic is standard countywide — this means every purchase loan requires well testing and septic inspection.

How do well and septic inspections affect the timeline in Elbert County?

Well tests and septic inspections add 3–7 days to the timeline. CTC orders these same day as intake on every Elbert County file.

What is the conforming loan limit in Elbert County?

$862,500 for 2026 — reflecting proximity to the Denver metro.
