Property Marshall engineering group INC. scope of work as follows:

The cost for most land surveying work is determined, based on the following variables:

Record Search

Past land transactions and the number of parcels involved are variables that affect the search time. This necessary step is complicated by many vague, incomplete, and often contradictory legal descriptions and land records.

Size and Shape of Property

A rectangular parcel contains fewer corners than an irregular shaped parcel, and needs fewer monuments to mark the boundary.

Sectionalized Survey Work

If your property description is in the Public Land System, a survey of the entire section (640 acres +) may be needed, regardless of the area and location of the parcel.

Time of Year

In the summer, foliage may make survey measurements difficult. In winter, weather may conceal field evidence.

Terrain & Vegetation

A level parcel of land is easier to survey than a mountainous parcel. Interference with lines of sight and accessibility complicates fieldwork.

Amount of Existing Evidence on the Property

Existing evidence such as iron, wood, or stone monuments, old fences, and occupation lines, and witness trees aid the Surveyor. Lack of evidence may compound difficulties involved in retracing boundaries.

Local Knowledge of Property

A local surveyor knows more about local survey problems. Someone pointing out accepted occupation lines and monumentation is an aid to the Surveyor.

Abutter Difficulties

Neighbor difficulties are common in boundary problems. If neighbors are cooperative, an otherwise difficult or impossible boundary location may be established by verbal agreement.

Due to these variables, it is important that you request an estimate of the cost of the survey from the Surveyor and be provided periodic updates on the estimate, as the project proceeds.
