Boundary Surveys

 

Boundary Surveys are performed to establish the real property boundary of a tract or tracts of land. This requires record information of the subject property and the adjoining properties. The record information is then reviewed and compared to the evidence of the real property boundaries located on the ground. Once this is completed, the monuments that establish the boundary are flagged. If the original corners are not found they are replaced with a 1/2 inch iron rod, 18 inches in length, driven into the ground then topped with a yellow plastic cap stamped "COLEMAN RPLS 4001" where applicable.

Boundary surveys are performed to re-establish property lines and corners. These surveys may be accompanied by a sketch with metes and bounds description upon request. In most cases, improvements are not located during a boundary survey investigation but may be located upon the client's request.

A boundary survey is normally performed to provide our client with knowledge of the location of the real property boundary of the tract. However, a boundary survey is not intended for transfer of title. Title Surveys must be performed for real estate transactions. Learn more about Title Surveys.
