What Is a Boundary Survey?

  • Property Transactions: Supporting land purchases, sales, and refinancing.
  • Fence and Structure Placement: Ensuring new fences, additions, and structures are built within property limits.
  • Resolving Property Disputes: Clarifying ownership and addressing encroachments or conflicts.
  • Subdivision and Land Division: Preparing accurate surveys for splitting or developing land.

  • Purchasing or selling property
  • Planning new construction, additions, or improvements
  • Installing fences, driveways, or landscaping
