Land Surveys

Land Survey Before Buying a Home

Home buyers can take many steps to ensure their investment is protected and to ensure their new home provides them with comfort and hassle-free living. Obtaining a land survey before buying a home can be the peace of mind home buyers need. A land survey provides buyers with a property abstract--an outline of boundaries, fence lines and even landscaping objects. As an experienced real estate attorney, I can help you obtain a land survey before buying a home and ensure your rights are protected.

Why do you need a land survey before buying a home?

Many people may not be aware of the peace of mind a land survey can provide. A survey company will measure the land and provide the prospective buyer with a property abstract. This property abstract will show the property lines, driveway, fences and even landscaping. The land survey provides prospective buyers with two important items:

• The land survey shows that the prospective buyer is not encroaching on a neighbor's property.
• The land survey shows that a neighbor is not encroaching on the property the buyer is interested in.

A proper land survey can prevent disputes with neighbors and save you from many hassles in the months or years to come. Interested in learning more? Call my firm at (910) 295-1700 to schedule an appointment.
