Word Wednesday - SURVEY
Every work place has their very own work language. This can create frustration when trying to complete a project when questions arise and the company answers using their own work language without a translator provided. Word Wednesday will give a little insight into the language of land surveying.
Survey
Sounds like a simple word. How could that be confusing?
Life comes with many adventures whether that be buying a new home or keeping your neighbors out of your backyard. At some point, requesting service from a land surveyor will be required. When ordering a survey, there are several different types of surveys available such as:
- Boundary Surveys
- Topographic Surveys
- As-Constructed Surveys
- Subdivision Surveys
That seems simple enough, right?
Let’s say you are embarking on the exciting adventure of purchasing a new home. Before you seal the deal, request a boundary survey to be completed. This will accurately provide the property lines for you to build your mansion without embarking onto your neighbor’s property.
Boundary Surveys - survey for the express purpose of locating the exact boundaries and corners of a given parcel of land.
