Land Title

A Land Title Survey is a survey made for lending or insuring agencies for the transfer of property ownership or to evaluate title problems, if any, relating to actual occupation and possession. Typically commercial land title survey are ALTA (American Land Title Association) and residential land title surveys are TSPLS (Texas Society of Professional Land Surveyors) Category 1A, Condition II.

The survey can be used to show a property’s boundary lines, improvements, easements as well as any encroachments or other “exceptions to title”. The map is similar to a topographic or architectural topographic map, but is completed to the A.L.T.A. standards and is certified to the property owner and lender.
