This video is okay for finding your boundary line corner markers. Take note that it would require a licensed Land Surveyor to verify that the found markers/monuments are in their correct location. Yes, markers/monuments can be placed in the wrong location or get moved by a layperson. Precision vs. accuracy. Just because markers measure the correct distance between themselves (good precision), it doesn't necessarily mean that they are all in the correct location (poor accuracy). Hope this helps.

@@TheDutchskipper I was taught that precision is how far to the right of the decimal point the measurement goes. Thus, 1/1000 is more precise than 1/100 which is more precise than 1/10. This mostly refers to the measuring instrument. Accuracy, on the other hand, refers to how close to the actual point a conclusion is. In other words, margin of error. For example, a thermometer accurate to +or- .5 degrees is more accurate than one rated at +or- 1 degree. This in spite that both thermometers measure down to .1 degree. Thanks for the share!

Check with your city or township on rules that may apply regarding placing a fence. And yes, staking the corners and running a line will help keep your posts in line with the property line.

Here in NSW, Australia private surveyors are required to mark boundaries. Our system is more complicated than just digging up iron rods. Plans on public record can only be understood by experienced surveyor. We have a combination of buried and surface reference marks to re-establish the boundary.

It's the same in the states, honestly I am surprised by this video. This city is opening themselves up to possible lawsuits, by implying that every marker that you find is in the right place. Most older lots don't even have a marker on them!

If you wan’t to find your lot lines, get a metal locator and sweep around your rear fence angle points. These could be gone if it’s a newer fence. Your front property corners could be brass disks on the curb or in the sidewalk. They may look like gum or pits in the concrete and they will have tarnished grey. If they’re not there, stand on the curb/sidewalk looking directly down your fence line and while walking slowly towards the fence, sweep the ground with a metal locator. If you still can’t find it call a surveyor. PS: a lot of states charge good money to get your survey records. Hopefully it’s stapled to the deed! Check. TLDR metal locator around the fence

We have had several of these surveys done by registered licensed surveyor. Make sure to get a registered licensed surveyor to find your pins and make sure they are in the right location. People move these, take them out of the ground, try to hide them etc. Neighbors are not experts. City workers in our case are not locensed either. It is amazing how many people think they are experts on where lines aren't and they don't have a clue. These markings are legal and aren't to be changed.

Also old property, especially agriculture/residential can be very sloppy because the technology wasn't there. My dad purchased some property with two disputed lines even though the property was surveyed when he bought the property in the mid 1970s. One line was disputed then which was solved in court and the other one recently cropped up when new neighbors surveyed their property.

Let's just assume that both surveyors in your described situation are awesome and did everything right. Surveyors can only go by the monuments they find and the documents they research. Surveys are professional opinions of the location of what a deed describes or intends to describe for the property. Sometimes the information available is not the best and another surveyor might find a different set of monuments or have some more info that gives him a different opinion.

@@tavinc There are a few reasons here in Oklahoma (where I practice) that you'd need a survey again after it's been surveyed before. You are refinancing, rezoning, or splitting/combining a tract. Then there are good reasons why you'd want to get it restaked: like you are building an addition or fence. But most of the time if you have the original plat of survey then you can just provide the Plat of Survey from the last time it was surveyed.
