Replat Property in Madison, WI

[Chris Carbonell]

Hi BP!

Does anyone here have experience replatting in Madison, WI? My wife and I are looking for our first home and, since the market is super competitive right now, we're trying to think outside of the box whenever we come across a property.

The property we have in mind touches both it's frontage street and the street behind it. Basically, the backyard is where our backside neighbor would be. What are the basic criteria to divide the land to create two plots of land? How long does that process usually take?

We are toying with the idea of buying the property and doing something with half of it if we can divide the land. We'd like to either just sell the land as is or build something new on it.

Thanks,

Chris
