ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey

ALTA/NSPS Land Title survey is a boundary survey based on national surveying standards jointly established by the American Land Title Association and the National Society for Professional Surveyors. This was a standard formerly set by the American Congress on Surveying & Mapping (ACSM). It is a Boundary Survey based on a commitment to insure title. All instruments (easements and encumbrances) of record are plotted on the survey, allowing an attorney or purchaser to see any potential problems or encumbrances on the property.

This type of service is often required for real estate transactions with extensive or high monetary value, usually within the realm of commercial real estate parcel or large multi-family residential complex. It provides a more detailed investigation than a traditional Commercial Mortgage Location Survey. It allows for a smoother transaction and reduces risks by confirming boundary lines to protect your commercial real estate investment and demonstrate real estate due diligence. The detailed information obtained in an ALTA / NSPS Land title survey can determine whether it makes sense to proceed with a loan or acquisition. Our accuracy is guaranteed and the survey is certified to the borrower, lender, and title insurer.
