what is a boundary survey?
Boundary surveys measure the boundaries and limits of a parcel, easement, or legal description by researching records and using GPS and RTS technologies. Clear boundary lines are important per WA state law. After research, we perform fieldwork to set markers and stakes as well as offer the option to walk the property with us to identify boundaries and any discrepancies.
While most land has already been surveyed at one time or another, the boundary lines can become confused over time, owing to anything from physical changes in topography to subdivisions of the land, and even neighbors who encroach on the borders.
Inaccuracies in a property survey can harm your ownership rights when challenged. For commercial properties, lenders and title companies require a new survey before closing a sale to avoid this issue.
