Connecticut Property Surveys

Before making any additions or improvements to your property, it pays to have a property survey completed. One of the most common - and costly - mistakes that homeowners make it relying on old property survey maps to establish the boundaries of their property. The truth of the matter is that incorrect information is rampant. The consequences of relying on old, potentially outdated information can be extremely costly and very upsetting. Instead of taking that risk, it's in your best interest to have a top-quality property survey performed.

The Basics of Property Surveys
A property survey - which may also be called a lot survey, house survey or home survey - is the most complete residential survey that can be performed. With the exception of ALTA surveys, no other land survey reflects the field locations and features that could have impacts on the future use of a property. Furthermore, it is the only type of survey that does not rely on previous maps, which enhances it accuracy and authority.

Avoid Boundary Disputes
Relations between neighbors can go south in a heartbeat when a boundary dispute is at play. If you think that it's wasteful to splurge on a new property survey, however, you should consider the exorbitant expense of undoing all of your hard work. If a neighbor raises a dispute and is proven to be correct, you will have to remove any improvements that you have made. It is vastly preferable to have a seasoned professional perform a property survey that will include an in-depth investigation into field locations, using town hall and land records, if necessary.

Work Can't Begin without a Proper Property Survey
It is extremely risky to map and stake a property without a current property survey map or perimeter boundary survey map. Once the survey is complete, the findings will be filed with the local land records office. In the event of any future disputes, the records will be readily at hand to assist you. Before you make any firm plans or buy any materials, always have a property survey done - it will help you avoid a lot of serious trouble.
