There are many reasons why it is good to get your land surveyed. Here are some of the most common benefits:

*To determine the boundaries of your property. A land survey will show you the exact boundaries of your property, which can be helpful if you are planning to build a new structure or if you are involved in a boundary dispute.

*To identify any easements or encroachments. An easement is a legal right that allows another person to use your property for a specific purpose, such as accessing a road or a water source. An encroachment is when a structure or another object is built on your property without your permission. A land survey can help you to identify any easements or encroachments that may affect your property.

*To get a valuation of your property. A land survey can help you to get a valuation of your property, which can be helpful if you are thinking of selling it or if you need to borrow money against it.

If you live in a floodplain, it is important to understand the elevation of your property in relation to the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) determined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). An Elevation Certificate is a document prepared by a licensed land surveyor or engineer that provides information about the elevation of a structure and its relationship to the BFE.

Here are a few reasons why you should consider obtaining an Elevation Certificate if you live in a floodplain:

Determine Flood Insurance Rates: An Elevation Certificate is used to determine the cost of flood insurance premiums for your property. If your property is located in a high-risk flood zone and is situated below the BFE, you may be required to purchase flood insurance. The Elevation Certificate can help you determine the correct rate for your policy, which is based on the structure's elevation and the flood zone it is located in.

Obtain Building Permits: If you plan on making any improvements to your property, such as adding a room or building a new structure, you will need to obtain a building permit. The local building department will use the Elevation Certificate to determine if the proposed construction meets the requirements for the flood zone.

Ensure Safety: If you live in a floodplain, it is important to understand the flood risks associated with your property. The Elevation Certificate can help you identify potential hazards and take appropriate measures to protect your property and family.

A surveying poem to enjoy :)

In fields of green, with tools in hand,
Surveyors walk across the land,
With measuring tape and compass too,
They mark the boundaries, old and new.

They work with care and with precision,
For their task requires great vision,
To map the land, to chart its course,
To give it voice, a clear voice.

For when they're done, the land reveals,
Its secrets true, its hidden appeals,
The hills and valleys, streams and creeks,
All come alive, as the survey speaks.

And so we honor these surveyors bold,
Whose work is valued more than gold,
For they preserve the land we love,
And chart the course we all must move.
