A Lot Merger combines two or more substandard lots into one and is a recorded document. A Lot Merger is completely different than a Lot Combination. A Lot Combination is processed through the Assessor's Office and combines the lots for tax billing convenience purposes only (i.e., one tax bill).

The process to split a piece of land into smaller pieces is known as "subdivision." The subdivision process starts with the Regional Planning Department (DRP) where a tentative map must be filed first. After the tentative map is approved, a final map must be processed and recorded through Public Works.

A subdivision generally takes 9 months to 1 year Just like the cost, the time that it takes to subdivide land ultimately depends on a variety of factors like the size of the lot, the improvements needed, and the location.

Land split means the division of improved or unimproved land into two or three tracts or parcels of land for the purpose of sales, rent or lease.

When comparing the terms, assemblage and plottage, assemblage refers to the process of combining individual parcels while plottage refers to the increased value of the combined, larger parcel. This distinction is particularly important in transactions that involve eminent domain.

If a property owner wishes to have parcels combined, then a discussion with the local city or township assessor is certainly in order. A written request by the owner to the local assessor is usually sufficient; however, some units may require an actual form while others may accept a simple letter.

In order for us to merge property you must meet the following criteria: Property MUST be contiguous to each other. All parcels MUST be in the same name, trust or business. Parcels MUST be in the same taxing district. Person requesting the merge MUST be the current owner of the properties.
