Find a Top Real Estate Agent Near You
I got 5 acres w 2 houses, can I split the lot/houses in FL?
I bought a home on 5 acres, and later built a better house on the lot. Now I am selling but no one wants to buy land with 2 houses - price too high!
So I am thinking that dividing the lot in half so each house can be sold seperately.
But I do not know how to do that!

Hi Michele, you can start by calling your county Building and Development Department. Make sure you have handy your property ID number ( you can find this in the Deed). Most likely, depending on the zoning and any special building requirements your property is located in, the department will be able to give you the steps to move forward with separating the land. It will require new survey for the entire lot and then each home. I hope this helps. Iva Pearce
