Why Is A Survey Needed?

Referencing a legal description may not be enough to determine your property’s boundary lines. Hiring a land surveyor will help you to meet certain requirements for buying or improving real estate or simply locate your property boundaries for your own reference.Reasons for a land survey include:

Finding property lines.
Meeting mortgage requirements.
Getting title insurance.
Settling boundary line disputes.
Knowing what you’re buying.
Locating easements.
Building a house or other structure.
Updating an outdated property survey.
Locating utilities.

Old real estate legal descriptions may reference landmarks or monuments that are no longer on the property, so a land surveyor will have to take new measurements to provide accurate boundary lines. The surveyor may also place new land survey monuments as a reference point for corners and boundaries.

How Long and How Much?

There are many varying factors in both surveying and engineering and each project is unique. Location, complexity, and existing information all weigh into how much a project can cost and how long it will take. Don’t hesitate to reach out and we will guide you through the process with ease.
