Title Boundary Survey Maps enable legal professionals to expeditiously transfer title of real property to perspective purchasers. Real estate and bank attorneys rely on the Survey Map to determine if the property is compliant with municipal building ordinances. The Survey Map shows the setbacks of structures such as building, pools and sheds. The Survey Map is needed to verify if open permits exist on structures like building additions or pools and sheds. It is also examined for evidence of possible adverse possession rights or other title boundary discrepancies. The survey map displays locations of driveways, fences, walls and hedges along the boundary lines and depicts whether they are on or off the property. Evidence of use, by people other than the owner, like common driveways or overhead wires or underground pipes are of interest to title company examiners. The Title Boundary Survey Map is an essential document in the transfer of tile interests in real property.
