ALTA/NSPS LAND TITLE SURVEYS
LAND SURVEYING
Civil Site Group produces detailed land surveys adhering to American Land Title Association (ALTA) and the National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS) standards. These surveys are often used for financial transactions involving real estate, and allow lenders, title companies and property owners to have a document with baseline details related to a property when its sale or improvement are concerned.
Specific details included in an ALTA survey can vary slightly based on the requirements of the transaction or the state/local regulations where a project is situated. We recommended consulting with our surveying professionals to determine the exact scope of a survey for your specific needs.
