A Land Title Survey, also commonly referred to as a Lot and Block Survey, is a detailed boundary survey conducted to meet the requirements of a title insurance policy. It provides an in-depth analysis of property boundaries and other factors affecting land. This survey is commonly required when a property is purchased or refinanced, ensuring that title companies have the necessary information to insure the title properly.

A Land Title Survey includes:

·         Property boundary lines with set monuments at corners, points of curves, or references.

·         Identification of recorded easements, building and setback lines, as well as any possible encroachments.

·         Location of rights of way and easements within or immediately surrounding the property.

·         The benefit of the title commitment provided and its contents, such as easements, building and setback lines, restrictions, right of ways, and more.

·         Identification of visible improvements above ground, such as buildings, fences, and driveways, in relation to property boundaries.

·         A signed, sealed, dated, and certified map or plat clearly depicting the findings as measured on the ground.

A Land Title Survey, often referred to as a Lot and Block Survey, is essential for real estate professionals, title companies, home buyers, sellers, lenders, investors, and developers involved in property transactions. It provides clarity on boundary lines, encroachments, easements, building and setback lines reducing potential risks in property dealings. This type of survey is typically required for:

·         Purchasing or Refinancing a Property – Ensuring the title company has the necessary data to issue a policy.

·         Legal Property Division – Assisting in land partitioning for legal ownership changes or future development.

·         Commercial and Residential Real Estate Transactions – Providing buyers and lenders with accurate land information to ensure they fully understand their property before completing a transaction.

·         Planning & Developing Land – Establish the exact size and layout of a property for construction or investment, including site plans, architectural, and engineering works.

·         Applying for a Mortgage – Many lenders require a land survey to confirm property dimensions.

·         Updating an Outdated Survey – If your current survey is old or incomplete, a new survey ensures accuracy and reflects any changes over time, such as newly recorded easements, right-of-way modifications, or boundary adjustments.

·         Knowing What You’re Buying – Understand the true boundaries before making a major investment and avoid expensive and stressful situations.
