What a land surveyor does before a property closing

Before a property closing (escritura), it may be necessary to verify parcel information, areas, records, and the property’s technical documents. This involvement depends on the type of transaction and what the notary office (escribanía) requests.

What the land surveyor reviews

The professional may analyze the property deed, property tax account, cadastral designation, previous plans, and location of the property. When applicable, they also take measurements or carry out a survey.

Coordination with the notary office

In many cases, the work is coordinated with the notary office to understand exactly which documents are needed and prevent delays caused by incomplete information.
