subdividers
Those creating portions
Subdividers are people or entities that divide land into smaller parcels, typically for development or sale.
Real estate developers often act as subdividers, purchasing large tracts and creating residential lots with streets and utilities.
The term can also apply more generally to anyone who divides something into smaller parts, though the land development sense dominates.
The subdividers transformed the old farm into a neighborhood of fifty homes.
