Ludlow Engineering and Land Survey

Residential land survey – What are they and are they important to get?

We would like to address this question.  A residential land survey is a land survey performed at the residential sector, mainly for a home, condo or rental.  These surveys accomplish the following:

• They locate the boundary of your property
• They determine an acreage of your parcel
• They show if there are any overlaps or underlaps of property – meaning you and your neighbor are paying taxes on the same piece of land.  This occurs when there are errors or differences in adjoining legal description.
• They indicate encroachments or utilities and how both of these effect your investment.

If you are un-certain of any of these items listed above – we would then recommend you calling a land surveyor in your area.

For Utah, Idaho and Arizona – Give us a call and we would be more than happy to assist you and your investment.

We strive to work closely with the real estate and mortgage companies throughout Utah.  There are often many items which need to be done before a house closes with title.  Here at Ludlow Engineering we can serve our clients with most of them.

• Land Title Survey – A Land title survey surveys the property to ensure the home and other valuables have been placed correctly within the property lines.
• Boundary Surveys – Similar to a Land Title, but more simple.
• ALTA Land Survey – The Cadillac of surveys.  Topography, utilities, neighbor names, access, title search are all elements of an ALTA survey.  This survey is certainly recommended for all business and commercial sites and large home sites.
• Foundation Inspections for Manufactured homes. If you are selling or buying a manufactured home, most mortgage companies require a foundation inspection of those properties.  We can perform those inspections and have it turned back into the mortgage company within 76 hours from a signed contract.
• House structural review and report.  If you are building a home, we can structurally engineer your home for you.  Working together with your architect or draftsman, we can accomplish the  coordination of getting your plans prepared for city or county submittal.
