Before you buy land in Membley Estate, verify boundaries with a licensed surveyor. A survey protects you from disputes and ensures your plot matches the title deed. Here are the common survey types you may need.

Know Your Boundaries Before You Build

📐 Types of Land Surveys

Perimeter Survey

Marks the exact boundaries of your plot using beacons or pegs. The surveyor produces a deed plan that can be used for fencing or title registration.

Topographical Survey

Maps the natural and man-made features of the land – slopes, trees, buildings, roads, and drainage. Useful for planning construction and landscaping.

Mutation Survey

Alters the boundaries of an existing plot, often when subdividing or consolidating land. The surveyor updates the registry index map (RIM) and deed plan.

Beacon Survey

Places or replaces physical markers (beacons) at the corners of your plot. Beacons are concrete or iron markers that show boundary points.
