Residential Lot or Mortgage Survey - A residential lot or mortgage survey is done to determine the location of your property lines and improvements (buildings, driveways, fences, etc.) Normally a survey drawing is included that may be used for a mortgage closing or for your records. A "lot" in this case is assumed to be part of a larger subdivision where multiple lots have been developed at one time and a plat has been recorded in the local courthouse.
A boundary surveyor determines the location of property lines and the monuments that mark the property corners of a parcel of land as described in a deed. The boundary surveyor undertaking a boundary survey should examine the deed for the property as well as possibly your neighbor's deed. These deeds are normally located in the Probate office in the county courthouse. The land surveyor may also talk with neighbors and/or the owners to get information they have as to the location of the boundary line.
