"I had used Leisure Lawn in the past for approximately 10 years or more and had to stop due to my finances. My lawn started looking really bad and I called them to start up service again. I was thrilled up until now. I had a burned spot in my lawn, the large area does not have the best soil, but green grass was growing there previously. I called to ask for someone to come out to check on it. The gentleman came (unannounced,) I was told it was because of my poor soil conditions. I called back a few days later to talk about this again as other spots have appeared. I was told the same thing. These other spots are in the middle of my healthy lawn that has great soil. I was told to look around at my neighbors lawns, they are the same!! (are you kidding me?) Well, they are not the same and the only difference are the chemicals used on my lawn!! He said the rain this weekend will fix it. If it needs “fixed” then there is something wrong!! I asked for something to be done and he refused. I asked to speak with the owners and he said they were not available for two weeks. My frustration is not only with my lawn, but with the attitude of the a general manager just throwing away my loyal business after so many years. If my business isn’t valuable enough to negotiate a solution, then my decision to take my business elsewhere was a good one."

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

Professional well contractors may use electromagnetic mapping to look for places with a high likelihood of water. Water access can vary significantly, even on the same property, so it can be difficult to know where to drill if you don’t have specialized tools to look for water.

A boundary survey measures the boundary lines of the property, only the length of each property line and their locations. A land survey includes a more in-depth measurement of the property, including the heights and depths of the terrain measured by a topographic survey. A boundary survey is typically the most cost-effective method for marking and measuring property lines.

A few different types of land surveys can help determine certain features and boundaries of your property. These include:

  • Boundary surveys describe the actual borders of a property. These are generally required when trying to get construction permits issued. 

  • Location surveys provide much of the same information as a boundary survey but also include in-depth information about any improvements made to your property. 

  • Mortgage location surveys are usually required by lenders and title companies before financing or offering an insurance policy. 

  • Site-planning surveys are done before applying for building permits and can be issued before any major home improvements. 

  • Topographic surveys provide a formal map of land elevations. It can also describe the location and size of natural features and any land improvements.

You should always calculate real estate development costs on a case-by-case basis, so there’s no specific formula to estimate your total. You should speak with a local construction manager to see what you’ll need to do in terms of clearing and leveling the land, connecting utilities, and pulling permits for construction. A professional will be able to get you an accurate estimate for land development.

Land survey reports have a boatload of information relevant to several scenarios. Here are the types of information contained with a survey, though it depends on your chosen type of land survey. Exact boundaries and dimensions of a given property General topography, including both natural and artificial landmarks Location of utility fixtures, like water mains Confirmation of any easements or encroachments on a piece of property Assessment of land elevation to buy flood insurance Updated information to add to a pre-existing property map
