Land Surveying is Essential in Property Development

Written by Design Build SWLA

Land surveying has long been a rich part of our history and an important piece in the development of the United States.

America’s greatest presidents and pioneers were some of our nation’s most notable land surveyors. Early land surveyors made a substantial impact on the expansion and development of our nation. Three of the four presidents on Mt. Rushmore were land surveyors before getting into politics. Theirs were often the original footsteps which surveyors for generations afterward have retraced.

Today’s land surveyors continue to play an important role in the growth of our nation. The increased value of real estate in recent years has made land planning and development a necessary topic in our area.

A land surveyor can protect your investment in your home. It is important to have your land surveyed before building your home. Possible encroachments on your property could be a big issue later on, when remodeling and adding square footage or fencing your yard. You will need to know exactly where your property line is, so you don’t build on your neighbor’s property. A survey will reveal the exact location of your property line.
