    What to do in special cases? My deed mentions over to a white oak, thence to a hickory, thence to a iron pipe, etc. Country folks aren't very intelligent when being exact. Trees die and fall, iron rusts, etc. Your thoughts?

    A family member owns property in Allegheny county md, the original deeds from the 1800s are still in our possession, there was an error made by a survey done prior which caused a loss of acreage on the property which now is in the states archives, is there a direction you can point us in to get this corrected? Again, we have the original deeds from the 1800s and know that the error exists and should be corrected.

      Also in Allegany County. I have a couple of deeds from the 1800s. One of the neighbors had their line pushed up in their 1970s survey done by an out of state surveyor. If it ever went to court, they can’t prove title to that portion of land over time but then you’re also getting into adverse possession. If it isn’t much acreage, all of the legal hassle and surveying fees aren’t worth it.

    Do I need a vest for my compass? Where do I get one? Also, what are the pruning shears for? You mention they are required but not why.

      @@MrWhitelightning73 I need to get a survey done because neighbors are encroaching on my back property. But all the reviews I read online of companies are mostly terrible reviews.
      I don’t understand why, how surveys and staking isn’t done before properties are ever allowed to be built on or sold.
      Also supposedly if I don’t get it done within 10 years and they keep using it it’s legally theirs!

      The reason I did it is that we bought a foreclosure that sat vacant for six months. On the south side of the property, our bank was dug out about 40 feet long. I questioned the neighbors that did it and they said it was their property. The survey showed otherwise. Now I’m in the process of putting up a retaining wall and backfilling the dirt they stole.

      So yes, it was worth it but the No was that it was too expensive. But I figured fighting out the neighbors with lawyers and courts would be more expensive. We choose our battles.

    This is very misleading, folks. Many, many properties have little, or even NO property corner posts. Leave this job for your local professional land surveyor....do you do your own dentistry as well? No?...
