Does your office handle subdivision?
Yes and no. Condominium is an entirely separate process from subdivision, which is handled at the county level. The subdivision process creates separate parcels that are free and clear from any other property. Subdivision also requires a sizable amount of additional infrastructure to be built per county codes. Condominium creates exclusive use limited common area and common areas, but owners have an interest in the whole undivided property.
Condominium units are fundamentally different from subdivided lots in development as the building rights, if any, on a condominium are for the entire undivided property, which may result in certain units not being permitted to construct homes. Condominium units do not have the same development privileges as subdivided lots.
The DCCA does handle the registration of some subdivisions for sale, but does not perform the actual subdivision. Please see the Subdivision licensing area.
