Illustrative footage · not a real project Lot splits and small subdivisions: how many homes can this land hold?

What gets checked
Density & approvals
ZoningBot covers density (units per acre), setbacks, required approvals and the entitlement path for the zoning you enter. Confirm minimum lot size and frontage with the jurisdiction.
Split or not?
HBUBot runs the four highest & best use tests, so you can see whether splitting the lot beats building on it as one.
Land & utilities
LandBot looks at topography, soils, access, site work and whether utilities need to be extended to the new lots.
Lot economics
ConstructBot budgets site work and vertical construction by trade; FinBot tests the economics of selling lots or building on them.
