Identification surveys are also a service we provide to our clients. They are predominantly in use for the sale of land. The survey will detect any improvements (structures/walls/fences) on the land and their relationship to the boundary. It will also identify any Easement, Restrictions and Covenants affecting the Certificate of Title.
Getting an identification survey is crucial for purchasing a property. Also, uncovering any issues you might not have been aware of is always wise. Moreover, an identification survey also enables lenders involved in a property transaction to ensure no encroachments could interfere with the property.
An identification survey also helps to document any improvements to the land. It is another aspect lenders like when reviewing property documents before financing a purchase.
Another reason for having an identification survey is when two or more parties dispute buildings or fences relating to property boundaries. The presence of a formal document setting out what the legal observations are can bring about an end to these problematic situations. That, too, without going to court or taking any further action.
It is vital to make clear that this type of survey differs from the ones we use for Detail plans. They are similar but differ, so they are sometimes given the same name or covered in the same category.
Detail plans usually focus on the improvements on the land. It includes the levels of the natural surface of the ground. An identification survey focuses more on boundary position. Identification surveys pay closer specific attention to the position of fences and walls based on their proximity to boundaries.
However, you may need Detail plans or identification surveys. In that case, you can check out our detail plans page on the ARP Surveyors website for more information about what they cover.
Similarly to a Detail survey, an Identification survey provided by us will need scheduling. We can come for a site visit at a convenient time suitable for you. It will take a little time for us to map out the entirety of your land and everything within it. It could be the better part of a day if the ground is small in dimensions or weeks if it’s much more significant.
We’ll inform you of this as soon as we know your needs, but rest assured; we’ll bring the latest technology and provide highly-trained staff to keep things moving quickly.
