What can you build on your lot? Would a builder want it?

Enter an address in Essex, Morris, Union, Somerset or Bergen County. We read the state parcel map and the town's zoning to show your lot size, zoning district, roughly how big a new home could be, and how likely a builder is to want the property.

Good To Know

How this works.

Lot size comes from the state's parcel records. Zoning comes from the NJTPA regional zoning atlas and our own reading of each town's ordinance; we only estimate a home size where we have checked the town's rules. It is an estimate, not a survey or a legal opinion: slopes, wetlands, trees, easements, corner-lot rules and board approvals can all change what you can actually build.
