If you’re getting ready to buy a piece of real property, you want to protect your investment by knowing exactly what you are getting. That’s where a professional survey comes into play. A professional title/mortgage survey that complies with standards of Texas Board of Professional Land Surveying will show deed or plat lines, all visible, above ground permanent improvements on property, location and character of corner monuments found or set, distance of improvements to deed or plat lines, and any other evidence that might relate to the location of the property lines.

A title/mortgage survey examines easements, rights-of-ways, and other matters of record indicated on the title commitment, to ensure that your property is free of any protrusions onto a neighbor’s property, as well as determining whether any intrusions have incurred into your property. We typically produce a title/mortgage survey in conjunction with Commitment for Title Insurance, which is provided by Title Insurance Company. If you are taking out a mortgage to buy the property, your lender will probably require a title/mortgage survey.
