The Importance of Surveying a Property Line

/in , , , , /by

Although a land survey may seem tedious and unnecessary when doing some projects, in fact there are many cases in which they become valuable, cost saving tools.  Recently one of our clients found out how important a survey can be.  The client contacted us with concerns about a retaining wall that borders their property.  They stated that the wall is crumbling, and client does not know who is responsible for repairs to the wall.  LandTech was able to help!  A crew went out and completed a boundary survey of the property, and also mapped the points of the retaining wall in question. After all of the information was compiled a map of the property was made showing all of the needed information. This in turn helped decide who was responsible for any new construction or repairs that were needed to happen with the wall.

Elevation Certificate in South Milwaukee, WI

/in /by

Land Tech Surveying, LLC, just recently finished an Elevation Certificate for a land owner in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin in Milwaukee County. The owner was in the process of refinancing their home and were required to purchase flood insurance for the first time.    The clients house is shown within the Zone A flood limits, meaning that there is no base flood elevation determined for that floodway.    We were able to fill out the LOMC application and submit the needed information to FEMA, so that they are able to make a determination as to whether or not the structure is within the floodway.

FEMA came out with new flood maps in 2008 for most of Southeastern Wisconsin which shows an expanded range of floodways.   This has affected thousands of homeowners, which are now required to purchase flood insurance for the first time or at a higher rate than before.

Land Tech completes numerous elevation certificates  year after year, and has helped many land owners either lower their flood insurance or completely rid themselves of having to purchase flood insurance by filing a LOMA with FEMA.  In return, they will save thousands of dollars over the years to come.

Land Tech Surveying, LLC, will help those who feel they are paying for flood insurance unjustly, or would like to have their home rated for flood insurance.  Having been through the process many of times, we understand the frustrations and complexities this process may entail.  Put our experience to the test as we have successfully helped many of our clients save hundreds, if not thousands of dollars a year.  Let Land Tech fill out an Elevation Certificate or a LOMA, and let us handle this difficult process with FEMA to lower your flood insurance.

Brookfield Land Surveyor

/in /by

Land Tech recently helped a developer layout 5 different condo buildings on 5 different lots in a condo development in Brookfield, Wisconsin. It was very important to have the layout of all the buildings ahead of time to make sure that all the building setbacks were met. Two of the buildings were staked and will be ready for excavation once the building permits are issued.

There seems to be some positive action within the condo industry in Southeastern Wisconsin. Some of Land Tech’s developers have purchased bankrupt developments from the banks, and are able to turn a small profit. Land Tech has staked out multiple condo buildings in Milwaukee county and Waukesha county in the last few months.

Menomonee Falls Land Surveyor – Call (262) 367-7599

/in , /by

Land Tech Surveying, LLC recently completed a boundary survey for a client in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. The property consisted of 40 acres being used as a horse farm. The owner is looking to build a horse stable on the property, and needed an updated survey for the permitting process. The survey shows the property lines, existing spot grades, existing contours, and the proposed horse stable with building setbacks.

It is very important to have an accurate and detailed survey done by a Wisconsin registered land surveyor when doing any sort of land development project. The owner can now use this map for planning purposes. They will also have an updated survey showing exactly what they own for their own piece of mind.
