Can I split my lot?

Enter the address to compare your parcel area with the stored zone minimum for two lots. Get an early area screen where coverage is live.

Two-lot area screen

Parcel area ÷ zone minimum

10 free lookups / month

With a free Bucky account

One address per snapshot. Multi-address assembly is available for signed-in users.

Try a sample address

Load a verified parcel from any currently supported city.

Start with area. Then check the proposed split.

A large lot is only the starting point. This screen compares the parcel area with twice the largest positive base-zone minimum stored for its zone. Even when the area clears that threshold, frontage, access, lot shape, buildings and local approval requirements can change what is possible. Use the result to decide what to investigate next with a planner or surveyor.

Common questions

Does a passing result mean I can legally split my lot?
No. This checks whether the parcel has enough area for two lots at the stored base-zone minimum. Frontage, access, lot shape, existing buildings, permitted uses, overlays and subdivision approvals need separate review. Confirm the current rules with the municipality and a qualified planner or surveyor. This is not legal advice.
What if my city or the lot minimum is missing?
The checker only returns an area comparison where parcel coverage is live and the parcel area and a positive zone minimum are available. An unmapped city can be requested through Parcel Pioneer. A missing rule in a covered city gives an unknown result, not a rejection.
What does the free offer include?
You can try this area screen without an account. A free Bucky account includes 10 site lookups per month in covered cities.
