The land surveyors are essential for locating and flagging the property corners, any buried irons, and generating a plat map suitable for recordation. When I walked the property boundaries with the forestry consultant though, it was an education. He pointed out the original axe blazing on the boundary trees, from generations ago, that I had never noticed and explained their meaning to me. So for the legal side of things, a land surveyor, but the forester has unique skills as well.

You should have a GIS photo map of your county and the property lines marked on that photo at the courthouse and can access that by either contacting the courthouse or through the website. Type the county of the state and GIS - your search engine will load the site and you can locate the tract by either the map or the owners name. County employee at the Clerk's office (where the deeds are registered) can help with instructions The lines will be too big on the photos to zoom in but you can get a real good idea of the limits of the tract.

In our state, purple paint is one of the legal methods for marking woodland property lines. Check your state law and if it's a purple paint state, paint your trees in accordance with the legal standard for minimum length of paint lines, height from ground, and distance between the paint markings then of course, video and photograph document it. Sounds arduous but you could do it in conjunction with one of your videos and it doesn't take long to do and could be part of your regular property inspections. Land is one of the most pilferable possessions so you should be doing this to guard yourself from adverse possession and prescriptive easement from neighbors or others. Also post No Trespassing signs as well but I'm sure you're all over that.

I owned my property for about 5 yrs before we built on it. I never paid attention to any survey stakes and didn't really know what was mine other than by looks. When we drew up plans for the house and shop, we walked it out with my builder and did all the planning. Next thing we know, the bulldozer had taken out the fence and trees by the neighbors house and going over where he parks next to his house. The neighbor got home from work and threw a huge fit saying we tore up his property. I looked at my builder and he said wait a minute. Looked at his phone at the plans and said, "No, we tore up ours." The fence was about 30 feet off. The neighbor was pissed as he had been parking there for 10 yrs and assumed his property went to the fence. I wasn't trying to make an enemy so we had the surveyor go back and mark every 8 ft. That way, I'd know exactly where the fence post would need to go with 8ft sections. It went within 15 ft of the neighbors house and my shop was 15 ft from the fence line. I originally thought the shop would be about 60 ft away from his house but ended up being 30 feet away. We ran out of funds and could not afford to pay for new plans, new permits, etc, so we kept forward with the original plans. Now that it's been 4 yrs, I get along with the neighbor, but I always sense animosity between us. He's told me several times that he understands, but it really spoiled his plans of putting an enclosed garage next to his house. Plus, now my shop is close to his house, and I'm sure he hears me beating things though he claims he doesn't. Not to mention now he looks out his bedroom window to a huge wall, being the back of my shop. We live on acreage but we didn't realize an acre really isn't much when you build a house and a shop along with driveway, parking, etc. My shop sits on the front acre, the house sits on the back acre, and we feel cramped.

Need to have licensed surveyor perform boundary markings. Also need to have a title search and update to the property. Then a letter needs to be sent out to neighbors to be notified and let you know of any disputed boundaries. The laws need to be updated in all states because encroachment or homesteading is a problem and allows people to take possession of your land. The lawyers have built cases stating if someone uses a piece of your land for so many years they are entitled to that section. It's how crook neighbors and not honest people along with our government screw law abiding people over. The adverse possession people know what they are doing which is a crime.

Your biggest threat is use, maintenance and possession claims by others. If someone claims they have been using your land or improving it or traveling through it going back many years, the survey is moot. What can you do about it? Become a strong, present, obvious land owner. Do things that people will see and notice and they will see you as someone not to mess with. It doesn't take much. Recommend some gates on those trails for starters. I recommend some discreet cellular cameras placed where they are not observable from off property but will cover likely routes in and out.

I told him to remove his fence and posts and that he was able to use the land as always but not to ever put up any posts/fence on it. Neighbors can sometimes get quite squirrelly over boundries.

A GPS will get you close and if the corners are staked with steel a mimers compass or metal detector will find them. We have remote off road property that was surveyed by the state and this is how I found all the corners.

Had a land broker with a corrupt surveyor steal land. They did it to all three abuttors. The other two and the guy who bought the land sued and won. Markers went back to where they were. When the land buyer showed me the map, I pointed out that the giant oak tree that was used as a reference on the maps had been cut down, after a town snowplow hit it, in the seventies. Found a few photos of that were used in court.

I had a new neighbor that decided to have the property surveyed. They were told the old elm was on their side by the seller and planned to have me take down electric fence for the cattle but when the land was surveyed it turned out they had built their fence 6 feet over the line. So since it didn’t go their way, they told the survey company to send me the 1800 dollar bill for surveying their land 😂. I couldn’t believe it when the survey company called to ask when I was paying their bill. The new neighbor wasn’t welcomed to the neighborhood by me. Happy they sold after 3 years ago and the new neighbors are Great.
@RostiboisADV4 ай бұрын
Wow I can't believe they tried to send you the bill after they were proven wrong! My neighbors haven't sent anything to us yet and hopefully they keep to themselves after all this. But we still want to survey our land itself to have a better understanding to the public land and the other private property by us.

Did you say your forester marked it Because im having to pay to mark it for the forester. I ask him whats wrong with the new survey i gave him a copy of. He said surveyors only marked the corners. And for the loggers to do the thinning ill need it marked every 100 - 200 feet. I called the surveyors asked if they could mark property boundaries every 100 - 200 ft and he said yes for $7000.00. Im like i just paid $16,000 for a survey . Smh...

Some of the factors in considering the cost of making boundary lines is the length of the lines, what the terrain is like, and if using survey grade GPS to measure to the line, what is the tree canopy like. It's also pretty labor and time intensive to mark up those lines. At least you have the boundary corners marked already, which is what you would need before any line marking can be done.

Assuming you can get an accurate GPS, go to each marking and take a photo and GPS mark. Photograph the image of the GPS marker on the pin so you can't be accused of false recording. The go to your local bureaucrat's office and have it recorded with update data.

a friend went out one day and let a balloon on a string go up from one marker. and his friend went to other ones, and viewed the balloon. (calm day) and got a GPS direction and walked it out, by one person going in the direction that the person holding a compass could see. stop and flag and keep going. they even did one at night with a flashlight that shown up into the start of the fog setting in. to get a bearing. On property disputes, usually whoever paid for the survey, wins..

That new survey may not be correct if they're using the old markers for a reference point. The old surveys were done using chains and weren't that accurate. I used to do this for a living and in one case the Union Gap the survey markers were off by 100's of feet. Yakima and Union Gap ended up going to court to see who owned what. The court decided to leave the wrong survey in place because several hundred houses had been built since the original survey and fixing the issue would have required 100's of homes to moved and the city would have to redo the sewer, power, sidewalks and roads.
