Important for all property owners!

Below are the 7 main reasons why you should have property surveyed prior to purchasing. Doing this is like taking out an insurance policy on your land - after all, your house and land is the single most important purchase you will ever make so it is vital that you protect your interests.

1

To ensure the land described in the transfer is actually the parcel the purchaser wishes to buy.

Fact - in Sydney 10 Land owners in one street purchased each others properties. Case was in court for many years.
2

To identify existing encroachments that may lead to a future boundary dispute.

Neighbouring fences & buildings may be over the boundary. Encroachments should be resolved prior to signing a contract.
3

To confirm the potential for a future subdivision of your land.

If you plan to subdivide your new property it is imperative to confirm the size of the lot and check for encumbrances.
4

To check that the land is not subject to flooding.

Most SEQ councils have changed their minimum flood level requirements in recent years due to climate change.
5

To check that any improvements or extensions are built within the property boundaries

We can certify that any existing buildings or structures such as granny flats, carports, verandahs & pools are located within the boundaries.
6

If you plan to erect a new fence you need to have your boundaries surveyed.

Existing fences & retaining walls are not always in the correct location so it is important to define your boundary line to avoid future disputes.
7

Above all else, to protect your new investment!

An extensive assessment of your property will ensure there's no costly or stressful issues for you to deal with in the future.
