Property, Boundary & Title Surveys
At Orchard Land Surveyor, we specialize in providing precise and comprehensive property, boundary, and title surveys. These surveys are essential for establishing legal property boundaries, resolving disputes, and ensuring accurate property descriptions in legal documents. A property survey provides a detailed map or plan that shows the boundaries, structures, and significant features of a property. It ensures that the property lines are clearly defined, helping property owners understand the extent of their land. A boundary survey specifically focuses on identifying the exact lines of a property’s boundaries. This survey is crucial when you are buying, selling, or developing land, as it ensures that the property’s legal description matches its physical boundaries. A title survey involves a thorough examination of the property's legal description, title documents, and related land records. It verifies that the property's boundaries are correctly stated in the title and identifies any potential encroachments, easements, or discrepancies.
Benefits of Property, Boundary, and Title Surveys
Engaging in these surveys offers multiple advantages. Accurately identifying property boundaries helps prevent legal disputes with neighbors or other parties. A certified survey can serve as evidence in court if a boundary dispute arises. These surveys ensure that property ownership is clearly defined, providing peace of mind when buying or selling property. For developers and builders, knowing the precise boundaries and legal descriptions of a property is essential for planning and executing construction projects without encroachment issues. A title survey is often required by title insurance companies to protect against claims that may arise due to discrepancies in the property’s boundaries or title.
Types of Property, Boundary, and Title Surveys
Our residential property survey is ideal for homeowners or potential buyers, this survey provides a clear map of the property’s boundaries, including any structures, easements, and encroachments. Our commercial property survey is similar to the residential survey but tailored for commercial properties. This survey helps developers and business owners understand the exact boundaries and any potential issues that could impact future development. ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey is a comprehensive survey that meets the stringent standards set by the American Land Title Association (ALTA) and the National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS). It is often required for commercial real estate transactions, providing detailed information about the property’s boundaries, improvements, easements, and other critical features. Boundary Line Adjustment Surveys are necessary when property owners wish to adjust the boundary lines between adjacent properties. It ensures that the adjustment is accurately documented and legally recognized. If you plan to divide your property into smaller lots, a subdivision survey is required. This survey maps out the new property lines and ensures compliance with local zoning regulations.
Costs Involved in Property, Boundary, and Title Surveys
Larger properties or those with irregular shapes, multiple structures, or significant topographical features may require more time and resources, increasing the cost. A simple boundary survey will generally be less expensive than an ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey, which requires a more detailed analysis and documentation. The geographical location of the property can also impact the cost. Remote or difficult-to-access sites may require additional effort, raising the price. Surveys conducted for legal disputes, title insurance, or development projects may have higher costs due to the detailed requirements and documentation needed.
