A lot survey - also known as a closing survey or mortgage survey - is a survey of a platted lot within a recorded subdivision. It is typically done at the request of banks, realtors, attorneys, and title companies prior to a loan closing. A licensed surveyor finds or resets the property corners, identifies any encroachments or easements, and produces a certified survey plat showing the results.
A lot survey provides assurance to the lender and buyer that the property being purchased is what has been represented by the seller. For most homeowners, a residential lot survey is one of the most important types of surveys since your home is typically your largest lifetime investment.
Lot survey is the final check before closing, confirming property lines, corner monuments, encroachments & easements on your lot before you sign the paperwork.
A lot survey is needed in several common situations for property owners and buyers in {{COUNTY}} County. If any of these apply to you, a licensed surveyor can help.
Many mortgage lenders require a lot survey or property survey before approving a loan. A land survey for a home purchase confirms property lines, corner monuments, and structures before closing - protecting the lender's investment and the buyer's purchase.
Having a current lot survey ready can smooth the closing process and prevent deal delays. Buyers, lenders, and title companies in {{STATE}} may request a survey before approving the transaction.
Many lenders require an updated property survey when refinancing. If the existing survey is outdated or if improvements have been made to the property, a new lot survey confirms current conditions for the lender.
Title companies may require a lot survey before issuing title insurance. The survey identifies any encroachments, easements, or boundary issues that could affect the title policy and the insurability of the property.
A lot survey reveals whether a neighbor's fence, driveway, or structure crosses your property line - or whether your structures cross theirs. The certified survey plat provides documentation to resolve the encroachment before or after closing.
If you are building a home, addition, fence, or shed on a platted lot, a lot survey confirms the property boundaries and ensures the new structure complies with setback requirements in {{COUNTY}} County.

A lot survey is a specific type of boundary survey performed on a platted lot within a recorded subdivision. The legal description references the lot number, block, subdivision name, and plat book - for example: "Lot 5, Block 2 of the South Subdivision as recorded in Plat Book 21, Page 33."
A boundary survey is the broader term covering any property, including platted lots, metes and bounds parcels, and acreage. The legal description may use bearings and distances rather than lot and block references. In practice, a lot survey IS a boundary survey - the main difference is the type of legal description used.

When your lot survey is complete, you receive a certified survey plat (drawing) that provides a clear, accurate representation of your property. Here's what's typically included:
Property corners are located in the field. Missing corners are reset with an iron pin and cap bearing the surveyor's registration number.
Exact bearings and distances for each lot line, showing the dimensions as recorded on the subdivision plat for {{COUNTY}} County.
Any encroachments - fences, driveways, or structures crossing property lines - are identified and shown on the survey plat.
Recorded easements for utilities, drainage, and access are plotted on the plat so you know exactly where they are.
A certified legal description referencing the lot, block, subdivision name, and plat book location in {{COUNTY}} County records.
The survey plat is signed and sealed by a licensed {{STATE}} surveyor - acceptable for lenders, title companies, and permitting offices.
Lot survey costs vary based on the size and shape of the lot, the subdivision records, and whether the property corners are still in place. A lot in a recently recorded subdivision with its corner monuments intact is usually more straightforward than a lot in an older subdivision where corners are missing or the records conflict.
Factors that affect the cost include the number of corners to find or reset, the improvements to be shown, fences or structures near the lot lines, recorded easements, vegetation and site access, and any survey requirements from your lender or title company. Rush service is available for closing deadlines, though a compressed schedule can add to the cost.
