Subdividing suburban residential acreage

[Tod R.]

There are several homes that sit on multi acre sites in suburban DFW. Does anyone have experience with buying these sites and subdividing into multiple lots? It will require platting/rezoning , but you can take a 5-10 acre site, for example, and create 1 acre lots with a home already built on one of the lots. Besides, zoning, you would need to bring in utilities and possibly a driveway to each lot.
