The primary goal of this presentation is to show you how to read a survey in a standard residential transaction, what to look for when you have one in front of you. We will not discuss ALTA/NSPS surveys in any depth. We will focus on the basics, what is a survey, how do you underwrite it, why do you need one, how is title insurance impacted by the presence or lack of a current survey.
