My dad is giving me some land in MN, but we don't know the process. How do you divide land into parcels?

Would like to know step by step, as well as how much we can do ourselves. Must we have it surveyed? What forms are used and in what order?

well this is a legal process so you should consult a real estate lawyer of lidagator for the best and most legal way.

Reply:Go the the city / county office wher they give permits, have the land surveyed. Take the survey to the city and show them the part of the property to be gifted to you. Apply to have the property legaly split into parcels. When the city approves the land division go to county recorders office and record the parcle in your name and bingo the plot is yours.





The city may or may not approve the land division. It has to make sence they are not going to allow you to take a part of the property that can not be accessed. For example if it is a square in the middle of the property that requires you to cut across the other parcles portion to access it. It may also be in a position where the city or other vendors can not get to it (sewer pipes, electric lines, city maintainence ect...) It may look fine in theory but not flow with the highest and best overall use of the land. If the division of the property would cause the city to reroute a sewer line costing tax payers hundreds of thousands of dollars the split will not go through.





The citys planning department will know and help you with the whole proccess.
Reply:First you have to find out if this land can be divided into parcels. I know it sounds stupid you own it you should be able to do what you want with it but you always have to have someone else give you the rules. So first contact your county building department and find out if you can divide it.
