Maxwell Land Surveying

Here are some reasons you might need a Survey…

So that you can see exactly what you are buying or selling.
To determine if there are easement lines for utilities such as water, sewer, drainage ways, power lines, etc. on your property.
To know if there are any encroachments like driveways, fences or buildings on the property.
To know the exact property line measurements and the precise locations of all structures, fences, or driveways related to those property lines.
To determine if you are in a floodplain.
To be able to put up a fence on your property in the correct location.
To subdivide your property to divide it among family members.
To make sure the building you are constructing is on the lot, within the setback lines, and not encroaching on any easement lines.
To determine if your lot is usable for an onsite septic system. (While technically not a survey, these are commonly done by surveyors.)
