Flood Elevation Certificate

An Elevation Certificate documents important features of your property, including its location, flood zone, building characteristics and, most importantly, the elevation of its lowest floor. An Elevation Certificate is needed to know your building’s elevation compared to the estimated height floodwaters will reach in the event of a major flood and it helps provide a true picture of the status of compliance with floodplain ordinances so as to determine your flood risk and the cost of your flood insurance premium.

What is a Standard Land Survey?

A Standard Land Survey is a traditional boundary survey that determines property lines and land area. While similar to a Land Title Survey, it is not used for title-insuring purposes. This type of survey identifies the precise boundaries of a property and may include details such as:
•    Property boundary lines with set monuments at corners, points of curves, or references.
•    Location of rights of way and easements within or surrounding the parcel.
•    Identification of improvements (such as buildings, fences, and driveways) relative to the property boundary.
•    A signed, sealed, dated, and certified survey map clearly depicting the findings as measured on the ground.

Who Needs a Standard Land Survey?

A Standard Land Survey is essential for various real estate, construction, and development needs. Often required for permitting purposes including city, county, and HOA approvals. Additionally, having a land survey is important for both developed and undeveloped properties ensuring property lines are clear and defined before making improvements or purchases.
You may need one if:
•    Buying or Selling a Property – Ensure the land boundaries are properly defined before completing a transaction.
•    Applying for a Mortgage – Many lenders require a land survey to confirm property dimensions.
•    Building or Renovating a Structure – Determine setback requirements and avoid encroachments.
•    Dividing Land – Accurately divide parcels for legal ownership changes or development.
•    Installing Driveways or Other Improvements – Ensure you are not encroaching on neighboring properties.
•    Planning & Developing Land – Establish the exact size and layout of a property for construction or investment, including site plans, architectural, and engineering works.
•    Updating an Outdated Survey – If your current survey is old or incomplete, a new survey ensures accuracy.
•    Knowing What You’re Buying – Understand the true boundaries before making a major investment.

Why is a Standard Land Survey Important?

A Standard Land Survey is a crucial tool for engineers and architects when designing your perfect home. It provides precise property boundaries, allowing them to accurately plan building placement, setbacks, and access points. Knowing the exact dimensions of the land ensures a smooth design process, avoiding costly revisions and compliance issues. Additionally, a Standard Land Survey ensures that all property corners and monumentation are properly established, providing a permanent reference for future use. A Standard Land Survey is a vital step in property ownership, real estate transactions, and construction planning. Here’s why it matters:

  • Ensures Compliance with Local Regulations – Stay within permitting requirements when developing land

  • Provides Legal Documentation – A certified survey serves as an official record for property transactions.

  • Assists in Construction & Development – Builders and developers rely on accurate surveys for project planning.

  • Identifies Encroachments & Easements – Avoid costly mistakes by knowing where property limitations exist.

  • Facilitates Property Improvements – Plan driveways, fences, pools, and structures with confidence.

  • Establishes Monumentation & Property Corners – Ensures all corners are properly marked for future reference.
