if i were to own 10-20ac with a single house on it would i be able to put additional houses on it later? the family has been talking about buying land and putting a few houses on it basicly in the corners but im not sure if this is even possible...

sub-dividing might be what i was thinking. basicly if someone owned 20ac they could then divide it into 4 separate properties of 5ac right? as for roads, utilities, ect... i figured that would all be upto the owner to pay for though it'd probably be gravel roads upto a regular access road.

I know of a specific example in Paris, TX where a family did this and move ahead 30 years and one family cut turned off the main water for another property and then dug through it. Also bickering about road/driveways...etc
Granted, a few of those parts have been sold off and it's not family vs family really - but it's just best to keep it all on the straight and narrow anyway.Originally posted by MR EDDU defend him who use's racial slurs like hes drinking water.

Originally posted by zemog View Posti was thinking on my property that only 1 of the acres was actually deeded to the house, as i and all of the property owners here (my neighborhood) are albe to add an additional house on and some of the older retired ones already have.
The land is surveyed out so one acre goes with one house and another acre goes to another house. The rest of the land is agriculture."Self-government won't work without self-discipline." - Paul Harvey
