Compliant, Detailed Property Analysis
ALTA/NSPS surveys are a valuable tool for lenders, buyers and other CRE professionals to evaluate a property while analyzing all potential benefits and risks of owning it. ALTA land title surveys conform to a nationally recognized set of minimum standards jointly established by the American Land Title Association (ALTA) and the National Society of Professional Surveyor. They provide access to a wealth of information that reveals property restrictions, easements, zoning details, and other critical factors.
Beyond Basic Boundaries
Basic boundary surveys may provide an outline of a property’s limits, but they often lack the details necessary for a thorough analysis. An ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey digs deeper, offering a complete picture of a property’s physical and legal landscape. By identifying property corners, boundary lines, and significant improvements early on, CREtelligent professionals can assess the asset’s true potential. This detailed screening highlights current use, as well as future possibilities, by revealing restrictions, encumbrances, and access issues that might otherwise remain hidden.
Typical findings and insights in an ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey from CREtelligent include:
- Exact location of property corners and boundary lines
- Location of improvements and above-ground, observable utilities, striped parking spaces, fences, and any other significant observations on the property
- Location of recorded and observed easements, including exceptions to coverage identified in the Title Commitment
- Surveyor findings regarding any potential improvements crossing over property boundary lines or over easement boundaries
- Any access to public right-of-way, or lack thereof
- Zoning of the property and Setback Requirements as defined by the local municipality
- Location of any water boundaries on the subject property
- Observable evidence of cemeteries/burial grounds
- APN and Vesting Owner Name information for all adjoining parcels of land
The Ever-Important Table A Items
The ALTA/NSPS Survey also provides the option to select specific “Optional” Table A items that can reveal important facts about the property relating to parking, zoning, flood hazards, underground utility lines, topography, and more. These optional items must be identified as part of the initial project scope before authorization to proceed is given. By incorporating optional Table A items, ALTA/NSPS surveys can offer even more granular data. This additional layer of information allows commercial real estate professionals to refine their risk assessment early on.
