I see, so my assumption was wrong. I've just gone on Zillow to investigate a little more and they don't state anywhere where their "lot lines" come from. However, it seems to vary by location.
Some places don't seem to have any lot lines, others have some properties marked and others have every property clearly marked.
I'd be interested to know where they get that data from. Is it some public source or a proprietary database? Do some states have a list and others not?
- emteycz 6y agoIf you want to see a real world example of freely available, exact and digital government land/building registry (including ownerships etc!), you can look at the Czech "Cadastre of Immovables": https://www.ikatastr.cz/ https://www.ikatastr.cz/ (zoom to street level to see plots). It covers every centimeter of the country.
