Do you know what surveys are as they relate to the world of title insurance?
We're going to break it down for you.
The primary use for a survey is to determine the size, location and description of the property, depict the improvements on the property, and to disclose any encroachments or boundary problems.
The three most common survey types include:
📍 Improvement location certificates - for residential transactions.
📍 Improvement survey plats - for vacant, farm and at certain times, residential transactions.
📍 ALTA/ACSM land title surveys - for commercial transactions.
