If you’ve recently received a notice or seen survey crews working near your property, you may be wondering what exactly is taking place. Boundary surveys are a routine and essential part of maintaining accurate property records. While they may bring surveyors into your neighborhood or even onto your land, they serve an important purpose for property owners, developers, and entire communities.

When preparing for a boundary retracement survey, you might wonder what you can do to keep the process moving efficiently. Many want to help expedite the process, no matter if they booked a Land Survey Plat, Improvement Survey Plat, ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey, or another type of professional land survey.

Whether you are planning to build on a property, sell it, or resolve disputes, everything starts with a land survey.

Monuments — also known as “property pins” or “corners” — are all terms that arise during any land surveying and mapping service.

Every inch of a parcel of land you own and are looking to develop matters! This is why you need a boundary retracement.
