Schmidt Land Surveying, Inc. offers Boundary Surveys, Topographic Mapping, Improvement Location Certificates, & Construction Staking. You Should Contact a Surveyor When Buying Property Because: Only a map of the survey made by a Licensed Land Surveyor can define what you've purchased. A Surveyor will determine whether other people are entitled to partial use of your property through easements for utilities or rights-of-way. A Surveyor will determine whether fences, trees, buildings, building overhangs, gardens, driveways, sidewalks, swimming pools, house additions, and other property improvements actually lie on your property A Surveyor will determine whether your deed accurately describes the property you occupy. A Surveyor can provide an updated deed description for the property you are purchasing. This will allow you (or your Lawyer) to file your deed in the County Clerk's Office, thereby registering the transaction and preserving your property rights in the future. Since a survey provided by the seller may be old, it may not reflect changes to the property or its boundaries. A survey protects you by bringing potential legal problems to your attention so you can address them before you make your purchase. A Surveyor can mark the corners of your property with permanent monuments so you will always be aware of your legal property lines. You Should Contact a Surveyor When Refinancing Your Home or Applying for a Mortgage Because: A bank or trust company will usually require a survey before lending money. Zoning, Planning, or Building laws may have changed since you purchased your home. You Should Contact a Surveyor Before Building Additions to Your House or Permanent Improvements to Your Property (like fences) Because: You want to make sure you are building on your own property. Mistakenly building on a neighbor's property can cause legal problems and extra construction costs. A Surveyor can stake-out, or mark the location of proposed buildings
