"Scheduling and receipt of the draft survey took longer than expected. I had to reach out to the company on both matters after accepting their proposal. The surveyor was professional. Answered my questions and placed clear markers on my property boundary pins, a requirement of my HOA for a home improvement project."

"I simply inquired about locating curbside / sidewal markers as we had new sidewalks put into our small community. There was a mark on the sidewalk but assume there are metal markers. Perhaps I should have just rented a metal detector. This company quoted me $1,400.00. More than double the standard industry for this simple task. Four companies quoted me average $500.00. Fortunately, we found the original survey company our title compay used in 2019 when we purchased the home in a neatly arranged binder we were given at closing. They are coming out to check and or restate for about $300 to $350, depending on how much time. There is a starter marker on our street, an official marker, so th is should be easy. I do not recomend this company. Pricing too high. I hope this honest review is not deleted. It simply is the truth. Robbi"

Land Surveying questions, answered by experts

To prepare for a land survey, you must thoroughly check your land surveyor’s qualifications, reviews, and fees to align with your expectations. When it is time for the survey to be conducted, ensure that you have all your documents organized and available, know and mark your property lines, and inform your neighbors that the survey is happening.

The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.

If a buyer pays for a survey, the surveyor they hired will only provide results to them. It’s up to the buyer whether they share the survey results with the seller or not, even if they ultimately walk away from the deal. It’s considered good faith to share the results with the seller, though, especially if you back out of the deal, as the seller can then provide that survey to future interested parties.

Measure from zero on a measuring tape by placing the metal hook right up against the edge of what you need to measure. You can also latch the hook onto an open edge—of, say, a table—to accurately measure as well. If you begin at the 1-inch mark, you'll need to subtract an inch from your total.

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.
