Verify your parcel's zoning classification, permitted uses, setback requirements, minimum lot size, and subdivision potential before listing. Wetland delineation, environmental easements, and utility access all affect buildability and value. Buyers will pay significantly more for land with confirmed buildable status than for parcels with unresolved zoning questions. Obtain a zoning determination letter from your municipality to remove uncertainty.
