what is a condo survey?
A condominium survey is a specific type of boundary survey that follows the local governing laws for condominium properties. They show ownership limits for each unit and shared areas in the association. ALS conducts a field analysis to mark boundaries and draw a plat showing each building, unit, dimension, and location. These surveys identify commonly owned or limited exclusive rights areas. Contact us for specialized questions and a quote.
Condo surveys are essential when purchasing or building a condominium. They are a valuable investment that secures investment and guarantees a satisfactory experience as a condo owner/developer.
To build a condominium complex, landowners require a condominium plat after construction completion. The plan is also necessary for converting existing apartments, office buildings, or multi-unit properties into individually owned units.
New condo properties must have accurate drawings showing all details of the land, buildings, and improvements, including unit layout, common areas, and facilities. These drawings are needed for legal documentation during unit transactions.
