How Do I Add My Adjacent Lots to an Existing Deed?

If you wish to create one large lot by combining a number of adjacent lots owned, you must have the areas re-platted by a surveyor and then approved by the municipality in which the property is located.

Using a deed transfers existing lots, but it does not change the ‘metes and bounds’ description of any one particular lot.

Only the municipality can agree to such changes, so you must contact the agency in your city or county that oversees property boundaries.

If you decide you need to create new Deeds, see details about Standard Legal’s Quitclaim and Warrant Deed legal forms software here.
