Property Line Survey
A property line survey is conducted for the purpose of setting or recovering property corners then draw a detailed plat or map featuring the recovered or removed corners. It’s the responsibility of a surveyor to recover the corners but to accomplish this; the surveyor must make an extensive research on the public records and in the field to take measurements of the perimeters. It is this survey that is the most important survey to carry out before construction takes place. This survey is what identifies property boundary lines and saves the property owner from several disputes that may arise from missing corners or trespass.
