It depends on where the land is. Are you governed by any Covenants?
That may or may not prohibit you from drilling a well.
I have owned large parcels of land in Arizona (where I operate as a broker) that CCRs for the subdivision (many remote areas are subdivisions w CCRs) required hook up to municipal water if it was available.
I'd speak to Development Services for your County and determine feasibility for your particular parcel.
You may also wish to contact a local well driller familiar with the area your parcel is in and find out if they have drilled any nearby wells.
Arizona Department of Water Resources for additional information.

I think Candice A. Donofrio could provide you with a better answer than I could.

Candice A. Donofrio for that info.

Candice A. Donofrio would be my go-to person to ask, Ryan.

You would not in ND Ryan Lay but I do not know about in AZ.

Hire Candice A. Donofrio as a consultant or as co-broker on the deal.

I don't live in Arizona (although both of my adult children do) ... and I do not know the answer ... but Candice A. Donofrio has the best advise!

  Candice A. Donofrio has anwered.   

Ryan Lay - not an expert and it seems Candice A. Donofrio is always the best!

Candice A. Donofrio or Elise Harron at Dirt Road Real Estate are your best bets there.

I don't know Ryan, will wait to see that your Arizona agent have to say.

Water rights are grandfathered into every parcel of land in AZ with no restriction. But you must check where your parcel is located on former State Trust Land, i.e you are the beneficiary of a State Trust. Nonetheless, you'll have to apply for a permit before you dig for a private well - then you'll get more details.

In your application you have to state how much water and for what purpose, in which location, etc...

As well, you'll have to consider the cost. We have two types of water - surface or ground water. You may hit water at 200 feet, and you may not. In which case, the more you dig the more expensive it gets to the point where it makes absolutely no financial sense - at least for domestic use.

So, a common practice is to truck in water into a storage tank, at a fraction of the cost of digging a well over the life of a property.

Candice A. Donofrio nailed this one!

I would be looking for all the AZ Realtors like Anna Banana Kruchten CRB, CRS, Broker  for starters...

My first thought was Candice A. Donofrio 

Candice A. Donofrio has the answer.  A

I don't know but it looks as if Candice offered you some very good advice. 

Plenty of water up here, we do have a right to drill a well on our land.

That is a great question for an AZ real estate attorney or real estate broker/agent. 

We are lucky that here in NH we have ample good clean water. If you have a rural lot without city/town water. You simply drill a well. No water shares or similar issues here

What Candice A. Donofrio said. 

 Check with the laws in Arizona. 

Arizona brokers here on AR provide great answers.

Follow your local laws and regulations.

Good luck.

I don't know AZ real estate laws....in MA, you can drill wells on your land.

Well beyond my midwestern paygrade! Just pay my bill for that great Lake Michigan water!

Came back to see what the answers are and it was interesting to learn.

Candice would know about AZ water laws.

Looks like Candice is your AZ girl for the answer to this Q.

Check with the governing authority

Sorry, I don't know.
