We are extremely happy with the service we were provided by Jeffrey Baldwin. Our closing was done on time just because of his help. He promised to give us the final report within 3 days.

Thomas A. ★★★★★

Jeff and JT Surveying helped me out with a Lot Line Adjustment. Jeff's work was accurate and complete, as we did not have any issues when going in front of the Planning Board to receive our approval.

Sandra F. ★★★★★

Jeff was available to start our survey pretty much right away! Jeff was great with communicating what steps he was taking to complete our survey. He was very thorough and finished within a short amount of time. I would recommend using Jeff for any service he provides.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions we encounter from homeowners regarding their property.

Why do I need a survey?

Many times, a survey is required by the lending institution. More importantly, you need a survey to alert you to encroachments, recover or set corner markers, and assist in the resolution of boundary disputes. Homeowners often use their surveys years later to obtain local permits for pools, sheds, additions or other applications.

What costs are factored into my quote?

Surveying involves specialized skills, training, equipment and licensure. As in all fields, costs for transportation, insurance, equipment and labor have risen dramatically in recent years. Considering the cost of real estate today, a good survey is a valuable investment.

How do I find my property lines?

Property lines are generally marked at corners. In New Jersey, statutes require that corner markers be of a metal composition and are at least 18" in length. Each marker set by a Licensed Surveyor in New Jersey must also have a cap bearing their name or supervising firm. In heavily wooded or expansive areas, your surveyor can set intermediate stakes along the line.

How do I find my property corners?

Corner markers can be difficult to find. Even after only a year or two, markers can be obscured by vegetation, storage piles or just green grass. We utilize a special device called a magnetic locator to find buried metallic markers. If you are certain the corners were there at one time or another, and can find at least one, you may be able to recover the rest by measuring distances that one corner. Surveyors are careful to perpetuate existing corner markers each time they are recovered by using brightly colored flagging, stakes and/or florescent paint to mark their location.

How do I know if my corners were set?

By law, corner markings are supposed to be set as part of the survey unless otherwise specified; this can happen when an attorney or other representative asks for them not to be set. In that case, the surveyor is not obligated to set the corners. Check your survey for annotations near the corners of your property as listed in the question above. Depending on the age of your survey, corners set or found in the recent past should still be there. Of course, there are instances where corners are obliterated during construction or even by acts of vandalism.

What are these phrases on my survey?

There are a lot of strange abbreviations on surveys these days. Keep in mind that we as surveyors are trying to represent a piece of land with numerous features on a small piece of paper. Some common abbreviations you may see on your survey are:
- POB: Point of Beginning, as in the initial point in a legal description.
- IP FND: Iron pin or iron pipe found.
- IP SET: Iron pin or pipe set.
- MON FND: Monument found.
- R/W: Right-of-way
