Subdivisions
If a developer wants to subdivide property into a residential or industrial subdivision, they must first go to the city or governing body for zoning and planning approval. There are many covenants that control the use of land, and we will write these covenants in a way that benefits you today and into the future. We also handle subdivision issues involving homeowner's associations, including HOA creation.
Real Estate Zoning & Planning
All private real estate development requires the developer to work with the government body and obtain approval for the use of property. We will draft all documents related to proper zoning and planning, including easements allowing access to local highways and other roads. By taking proper action today, you can protect yourself in the future.
Eminent Domain
Eminent domain can occur when a city or municipality requires a right of way to extend a road or for any other government need. In most cases it involves condemnation, which does not necessarily involve dilapidated buildings. We represent individuals whose property is being taken or condemned, as well as government bodies taking property for public purposes.
