Boundary surveys are an essential part of pre-construction due diligence because they define the physical boundaries of the property to avoid any possible conflicts or disputes in the future.
They are often required by many lenders or title companies to reduce transactional risk as they define the legal lines of the property.
Boundary surveys are usually performed before the purchase, split, improvement or construction on the land. They have to be conducted by a company specialized in land surveying such as Tucker Engineering, a land and boundary surveyor based in Alabama.
