What Is An Identification Survey Report?
An identification survey report is a detailed document that outlines the location of any improvements on a property in relation to its boundaries.
It highlights essential information such as easements, covenant, restrictions, and any encroachments by or upon the land. This report can also uncover discrepancies in site boundaries and indicate whether the title is Limited, qualified or Old System.
Conducted by a Registered Land Surveyor, the report ensures thoroughness and serves as a key component of due diligence, offering clarity on the property’s rights in addition to any potential issues affecting its title or boundaries.
