You need a land survey to confirm the property lines

Why would anybody purchase real estate without a survey? For me it's part of the closing. Get a survey!

Hot market sells faster than the time it takes to hire a survey. Sellers not waiting for your survey when another buyer will snap up same day.

Back when I was a kid outside St. Louis in big lots neighborhood. the neighbor accidentally put their driveway on part of moms land. They didn’t do a survey, I have no idea why people don’t do surveys. Mom discussed it with the neighbor who apologized and mom agreed to accept a letter acknowledging that the land was hers & $1 per year rent to retain her ownership. When the property next door sold it would have been disclosed to the buyer. My mother wandered over to be friendly and to ask if the new owner would like to continue the deal, a letter acknowledging moms ownership and $1 a year rent for the land. The woman refused and ordered mom off her property. Mom sent her a few warning letters attempting to resolve the situation then did what was required to not have part of her land taken from inaction. She got a court order requiring the removal of the driveway off her land. That meant there wasn’t enough room to get a driveway around that side of the house. She had to put a 1/2 acre driveway graded on a hill around the other side of her house to be able to access the garage in the back. It would have cost a ton since it needed to be graded and a completely new very long driveway put in. All because she wouldn’t be polite, write a simple letter abs pay $1 per year

I might be going through a property dispute with our next door neighbors soon myself, based on surveyor marks, it looks like they built a small fence over the property line. We are terrified to even mention this to the neighbor. 🥶 It's good to see your healthy attitude on the matter. Rather than fighting with them, you are getting a legal measurement done and will act accordingly.

Knowing your property line with survey is vital before building structures or planting long term plants. Really ni5 at all sure why you hadn’t had this don3 at the time you bought the place. I own city property and I did it before purchase. The fences that border my property on the sides and back are on, and belong to the neighbors.

tax assessments are wildly inaccurate. i had a 4 bedroom 2 bath home assessed as a 12 bedroom 6 bath home. 15000 squarefeet into 22500 sqaurefeet. Assessments are there to fill the town coffers.

A survey will tell any buyer what they're getting. Meanwhile, pay rent with some eggs, an occasional fryer/roaster, feathers for new pillows or mattress...

@@JustLiving2018 That's BS. Assessors may not have the deeds but they should be able to give you the book/page, and you can look it up at the county registry, or wherever deeds are recorded in your state. Also, I'd hope that you already have a copy of your own deed.

When we bought our raw land we had a land survey done. My husband approached the only neighbor who shared a property line with us and walked it with him to make sure he was okay with it all before we began fencing. All seemed well. Until the construction crew showed up to build our house and found the road blocked with 'no trespassing' signs. He tried to talk to the neighbors and explain to them that we had a legal easement that couldn't be blocked and they weren't having any of it. Cops were called and made them take the signs down. A few years go by and everything is quiet until another person buys land that borders the front of both our properties. She wants to fence her land for cattle (good idea) but the first neighbors have pushed the easement onto her property. SOMEBODY has to move the dirt road. Once she puts the fence up, we lose our access to our land again. My husband goes to chat with the guy to inform him that we'll take care of it, but no. He doesn't believe that there's an easement and he's not giving up one foot of land to let us in and out. It's literally 20 feet of brush and nothing else there, but they won't let it go. Now we have to dig up the land survey and prove that we do have access to our land before he blocks us out. (Or in... depends on where we happen to be when the road is blocked off. smh) He's actually blocking a few feet of the new neighbor's land so she can't start her fence. Thankfully we listened to the surveyors and fenced properly, so really the only issue is a bit of road by his house. Stubborn people. This might end up in court.

@@JustLiving2018 Wait, you did get a survey done or you didn't? How much did you spend on your land? The realtor got, what, 6-7% for just acting as a go-between. It wasn't worth 1% to hire a surveyor to find out what you were actually buying?
