Michigan Salesperson PSI Practice Exam

Michigan's Land Division Act governs how land can be split without going through a formal subdivision process. When you divide a large parcel informally (without filing a subdivision plat for review), there’s a set limit on how many parcels you can create from that one parcel. For a 40-acre tract, that limit is seven parcels. If you tried to create eight or more parcels, you’d have to submit a subdivision plat so the local planning commission and other authorities can review things like road access, lot sizes, and infrastructure. So, from 40 acres, you can partition into up to seven parcels without forming a subdivision; eight or more would trigger the formal subdivision process.
