Residential plotting refers to the process of dividing large areas of land into smaller plots that can be used for residential purposes, such as building homes or apartments. Developers typically purchase large tracts of land and then subdivide them into smaller plots, each with its own legal boundaries and ownership rights. These plots are then sold to individual buyers who can use them to construct their own homes or invest in rental property. Residential plotting is a common practice in urban areas where housing demand is high and land is scarce.
