Are land surveys required by law in Florida?

Land surveys are not always legally required, but they are often needed for real estate transactions, construction permits, and resolving boundary disputes.

Do I need a boundary survey before building a fence?

How accurate is a boundary survey?

Boundary surveys are highly accurate, typically within a few Millimeters, and follow strict legal and professional standards.

Can I dispute a neighbor's fence with a property survey?

Yes. A licensed boundary survey provides legal evidence of your property lines and can support claims in property line disputes.

What if my property lines don’t match the deed or fence?

A land survey can reveal discrepancies between physical features and legal descriptions, which may require legal resolution or adjustments.

What is an elevation certificate and why do I need one in Miami?

An elevation certificate shows your property’s height relative to base flood elevation. It's required in many areas of Miami for flood insurance and permitting.

How do I know if my property is in a flood zone?

You can check FEMA flood maps or contact us to determine if your property is located in a high-risk flood zone.

What is an ALTA/NSPS land title survey?

An ALTA/NSPS survey is a detailed commercial survey meeting national standards. It includes boundary lines, easements, improvements, and other key data for lenders and title companies.

When is an ALTA survey required in a commercial real estate deal?

ALTA surveys are typically required during commercial real estate transactions or refinancing to ensure clear title and lender confidence.

Construction staking involves marking the exact location of proposed structures on the ground to guide builders. It's essential for accuracy during construction.
