A redefinition survey should be conducted before you engage in any activity that could potentially involve you in a dispute over legal boundaries.

Typically your house and land represent your largest assets. If you are contemplating purchasing property you should know as much as possible about the piece of land you are going to invest in.

A redefinition survey is one of the many important services provided by a registered surveyor as your land consultant.

Redefinition surveys involve the identification of established land boundaries. Knowledge of the exact boundaries of your land will help you avoid expensive encroachment disputes and ill-will between you and your neighbors.

If you are developing a section in an established area it is wise to determine the precise boundaries of your property before you begin.
