Thinking of selling off a piece of your land—maybe a few acres to a neighbor or relative? 🏡✂️ Before you stake out boundaries or shake hands, here’s what needs to happen first:
✅ A legal land split (aka land division) must be approved by your local assessor
✅ A new legal description must be recorded for the divided parcel
✅ A title search is essential to uncover easements, liens, or restrictions that could block the sale
✅ A new title policy will likely be needed for the buyer
Skipping the title process can lead to serious headaches: think invalid deeds, zoning issues, or disputes over access.
At Capital Title, we help make sure everything is filed properly so your transaction is clean, clear, and fully compliant. 💼📄
