My fiance and I are buying our first house. How do I figure out where on earth my property lines are. I was wondering if a file of trees was mine or the neighbors.
Answers: A survey be done at some point, when the property was first sold.
When it be done, they drove a metal stake or pipe into the ground, less than an inch below the surface. (so the mower doesn't hit it.) Every corner of the property will own a stake.
The deed will come near a survey, and a plat (I believe it's called), that should show you the property lines.
A metal detector in the broad area will find the property string pipe in simply a few minutes.
(Turns out my mother's property line extends into the middle of a right of method road, for example)
If you gat a survey that will tell you. Otherwise you will obligation a survey. Do not make assumptions becasue they will come put money on and bite you in the butt. I run into that when wanting a fence and opt for the survey, well worth the price.
