Property can be annexed into a municipality (a city or town), before or after development has taken place. If you own property that a city or town is interested in, you’ll need expert legal advice and an experienced real estate lawyer to draw up an annexation agreement.

Annexation brings private land from an unincorporated area into a municipality. In order to be annexed, the property must share a border with the municipality.
