FAQs

What is the difference between a land survey and a plot plan? - A land survey is a precise, legal document created by a licensed surveyor that defines your property boundaries, identifies easements, and may include topography or structures. It's often used for property transactions, construction, or resolving boundary disputes. A plot plan, on the other hand, is a simplified drawing—often based on a land survey—that shows how proposed structures (like a house, shed, or driveway) will sit on the property. Plot plans are commonly required for building permits but may not include all the legal detail of a full boundary survey. In short: Land survey = legal document showing exact boundaries Plot plan = layout showing proposed changes on the lot, often for permit use

Do I need a licensed land surveyor? - In MA, if your survey will be used for real estate transactions, construction, permits, or development projects, it must be prepared and stamped by a licensed land surveyor. This ensures the survey meets state and local requirements and is legally valid for official use. Massachusetts law requires licensed land surveyors for boundary, title, and construction-related surveys. Only licensed surveyors can certify and stamp surveys that hold up legally or are accepted by town officials, lenders, or attorneys.
