A lot subdivision plat, or lot split plat, divides a tract of land into two separate parcels. The process can take 2 months, or up to a year, depending on the adjustment and location of the property. As with any plat, a boundary and improvement survey is first prepared, and then a lot split plat is drafted. The plat is submitted to the city/county of jurisdiction, undergoes review, and receives comments. Altea addresses all survey-related comments up to approval. After plat approval, we print final copies for recording and provide you with recording instructions. Contact us to discuss options for splitting property.

Lot subdivision plats are common for individuals looking to sell off land to developers, provide land for family members or heirs, make developments more profitable, or section off land for another use. In St. Louis City, lot subdivision plats are common with developers seeking to divide an existing townhome into two, fee-simple properties that can be sold separately. Our firm has completed many of these fee-simple conversion permits and subdivision plats, and we are ready to advise you through the process.
