To divide a particular piece of land into smaller lots with the intention of either developing or selling them, it is imperative to conduct a subdivision survey. Cincinnati Land Surveyors possess the knowledge, skills, and necessary equipment to carry out this task meticulously, ensuring an accurate and precise subdivision survey is delivered to their clients.

A survey of a subdivision is necessary when a single piece of land is divided into multiple lots. Initially, a surveyor must conduct a boundary survey of the entire lot. This is followed by subdividing the lot into smaller parcels, which entails completing boundary forms to finalize the subdivision design. Additionally, a surveyor will perform a boundary or lot survey to ensure that the individual lots’ design aligns with the overall subdivision plan. It is crucial to conduct this survey whenever land is subdivided, whether for housing tracts or when selling a portion of residential or commercial land.
