Q: What does a land surveyor look for?

• <div><p>Depending on the type of land survey, the report will mark the boundaries of your property, the topographical changes of the landscape, as well as major natural and added structures to the plot.

Q: Is it worth it getting a land survey?

• <div><p>Land surveys are worth it in several scenarios including selling your home, building an addition, constructing a fence, or making major changes to your landscape.
