Survey Plan vs C of O: Do you know the difference?

If you’re buying land in Nigeria, these are two property documents you’ll likely come across but they serve completely different purposes.

A Survey Plan tells you where the land is, its exact boundaries, dimensions, and coordinates. A Certificate of Occupancy (C of O), on the other hand, is a government-issued document that provides evidence of a person’s legal right to occupy and use the property.

Save this post for the next time you’re checking property documents, and share it with someone planning to buy land in Nigeria.

A project does not collapse overnight.

It starts with small errors. An inaccurate measurement, an unreliable coordinate, or incorrect site information.

Survey data is the foundation behind every successful development.

With OTIC Surveys, you get accurate measurements, reliable positioning, and the confidence to move your project forward.

Because when the foundation is wrong, everything built on it is affected.

The choice of accuracy is yours.
