Land Surveying
Mortgage
Title Inspections
The sole
purpose of this inspection is to obtain mortgage title insurance.
This is the minimum service that your lender requires for
closing your loan. It is a location of improvements and a
cursory check for violations or encroachments onto or from
the subject property based on existing but not confirmed evidence.
This does not constitute a boundary survey and is subject
to any inaccuracies that a subsequent boundary survey may
disclose. No property corners will be set and it should not
be used or relied upon for the establishment of any fence,
structure or other improvement. No warranty of any kind is
extended therein to the present or future owner or occupant.
Boundary
Survey
A boundary
survey of the subject property will be made and the property
corners will be located and verified or reset. This survey
is normally performed on vacant property. A check for violations
or encroachments onto or from the subject property will be
made. This of survey can be used, by the property owner, for
the construction of a fence, structure, or other improvements.
Boundary
and Improvement Survey
A boundary
survey of the subject property will be made and the property
corners will be located and verified or reset. The improvements
on the property will be located and a check for violations
or encroachments onto or from the subject property will be
made. This survey can be used, by the property owner, for
the construction of a fence structure or other improvements.
Tract
Survey
A tract
survey is similar to a boundary survey in that a boundary
survey of the subject property will be made and the property
corners will be located and verified or reset. This survey
is normally performed on large parcels of land, which have
improvements that do not require location. A check for violations
or encroachments onto or from the subject property will be
made, with the primary emphasis being concentrated along the
property lines for to establish any conflicts between the
surveyed line and any apparent lines of possession. This survey
can be used by the property owner, for the construction of
a fence, structure, or other improvements.
ALTA/ACSM
Land Title Survey
This
is the most comprehensive type of survey and improvement location.
It covers all aspects of the boundary survey and improvement
location and identification of any additional evidence of
possession or use, which could be adverse to the interests
of the purchaser. This type of survey is normally only performed
on commercial property because of the expense involved.
