GET A LAND SURVEY -
The land survey needs to include the property boundaries and the location of any improvements such as buildings, paving, or fences.
What to look for in a land survey:
- Identify any easements, building setbacks, or other restrictions on the property, which will affect your use and future development of the site.
- Include a written description for the property deed, because properties often lack visual boundary markers like an iron rod in the ground.
- Determine whether or not your home is in a floodplain. If a house is in a floodplain, the surveyor will also provide an elevation certificate, which includes your home's floor elevation as well as the lowest and highest ground elevations near the house.
