Boundary Survey

A boundary survey is a process carried out to determine property lines and define true property corners of a parcel of land described in a deed. It also indicates the extent of any easements or encroachments and may show the limitations imposed on the property by state or local regulations.Before you purchase a piece of residential property, your lender or title company may require a boundary survey to be performed on the land.

The encroachments across boundary lines onto the parcel. The location of the survey monuments that we have placed or found at the boundary corners and/or along the boundary lines of the parcel.

A “Boundary Survey” is used to identify a property’s boundary lines. In this type of survey, the surveyor will set (or recover) the property corners and produce a detailed plat or map. To accomplish this, the surveyor will research the public records and do research in the field, take measurements and perform calculations.

This type of survey is what is necessary for construction and permit purposes, and it can be expensive — possibly even several thousand dollars — depending on the size of the property and how complicated the records are.
