Similar to a residential boundary survey, a commercial boundary survey meets the minimum standard requirements for surveys and it is the type of survey most lenders require as part of the loan approval process.
WHEN DO YOU NEED A BOUNDARY SURVEY?
Buying or selling commercial property
If clarity is needed as to the legal description and boundaries of your commercial property
If you’re planning to develop commercially zoned property
As a requirement for permits
If there is no current plat on file, or if the plat on file is more than a few years old (older plats may be inaccurate or fail to reflect recent zoning changes)
WHAT TO EXPECT WITH A BOUNDARY SURVEY
Survey crew will arrive at the property to collect data, flag corners and re-set missing pins
A scale drawing (or “plat”) is drawn with property lines, bearings, distances and acreage.
Property improvements will be shown such as buildings, driveways, fences, pools, etc.,
