Physical Survey

Featured Services

Real estate physical surveys are a critical component of property transactions and development projects, providing accurate information about the physical characteristics and boundaries of land parcels. Here’s an outline of the content typically included in real estate physical survey reports:

Property Description

The survey report begins with a detailed description of the property being surveyed, including its legal description, address, parcel identification number (PIN), and any relevant historical or contextual information.

Boundary Survey

A boundary survey determines the precise boundaries of the property, including its corners, lines, and any encroachments or easements. This section may include a plat or map showing the property boundaries relative to nearby landmarks, roads, or neighboring properties.

Topographic Features

The surveyor records the topographic features of the property, such as elevation changes, natural landmarks, bodies of water, vegetation, and man-made structures like buildings, roads, and utilities.

Easements and Right-of-Way

The survey report identifies any easements or right-of-way agreements that affect the property, such as utility easements, access easements, or municipal right-of-way for roads or public utilities.

Zoning and Land Use

Information about zoning regulations, land use restrictions, setbacks, and other applicable land use regulations may be included to provide context for potential development or use of the property.

Improvements and Utilities

The surveyor notes the location and condition of existing improvements on the property, such as buildings, fences, driveways, and utility connections (water, sewer, electricity, gas). This information helps prospective buyers or developers understand the existing infrastructure and any potential limitations or opportunities for development.

Flood Zone Determination

If the property is located in a flood-prone area, the survey report may include a determination of its flood zone classification and any associated floodplain regulations or insurance requirements.

Environmental Considerations

While not always included in basic survey reports, information about environmental hazards or contamination on or near the property may be provided if relevant to the transaction or development plans.

Surveyor’s Certification and Signature

Like any profession, land surveying is guided by ethical principles and standards of conduct. Topics may include honesty and integrity in reporting survey data, respecting property rights, confidentiality, and avoiding conflicts of interest.

By covering these topics comprehensively, land surveying content can provide valuable information to professionals in the field, students aspiring to become surveyors, landowners seeking surveying services, and anyone with an interest in land management and development.
