Do you need a land survey for your Edgewood property? This may be necessary for a number of reasons, particularly if you plan on selling the property or have plans for expansion. With this service naturally comes the question: What’s the average property survey cost? Learn how much you can expect to pay and the cost variables.

Survey Type

The cost largely comes down to survey type. For example, a property line survey for establishing boundary lines can range between $300 and $900 for every half acre. A topographical survey, which maps elevation and features like trees and bodies of water, averages between $400 and $1,500. The national average is about $400 to $1,000.
Let’s look at the factors that can go into the price.

Residential and Commercial Surveys

The price may differ between residential and commercial surveys. The latter has a higher average cost since the land is typically larger and requires greater documentation to fulfill various licensing and municipal requirements.

Land Size

It goes without saying that the greater the land size the higher the cost. Larger lands take longer to map out and document, requiring greater time, labor and commitment.

Time of Year

Similar to other professions like construction worker and plumber, the demand for land surveyors varies depending on the time of year. There is typically more demand for surveyors in the summer, and less so during winter.

Terrain Conditions

Flat terrain in an open space is going to require less effort than terrain with significant slopes or complex natural features. The latter will cost more since it’s more labor-intensive to survey.
