It can also help to clarify vague or inaccurate legal descriptions and resolve disputes with neighbors regarding boundary location.

When is property line staking needed?

• If you are planning to place a structure or perform landscaping near the edge of your property.
• A boundary survey identifies any encroachments (driveways, fences, buildings, etc.) on the property or crossing any of your boundary lines.
• A boundary survey and drawing provide you with the exact property line measurements and locations of all structures (houses, barns, etc.), fences, or driveways related to those property boundary lines.
• Completing a boundary survey can provide markings along your property lines which allow you to put up a fence on your property line in the correct location so that you don’t encroach on another property.
• A boundary survey is the first step in being able to subdivide your property to divide it among family members.
• A boundary survey should be done to make sure the building you’re constructing is properly placed on the lot and not encroaching on any easement lines.
