Land Title Surveys - ALTA / ACSM
An ALTA Survey shows the relationship between boundaries in the property’s deed and existing improvements. This is the most comprehensive type of land survey as it covers all features and characteristics of a property. It provides a title company or lender with the necessary location and survey data to issue an American Land Title Association or Extended Coverage Title Insurance Policy.
Topographic Surveys
A Topographic Survey is used by architects and engineers for planning site improvements and developments. It locates both natural and man-made features. This could include elevations, streams, trees, contours, existing improvements, fences, utilities, and buildings.
Boundary Surveys
A Boundary Survey locates corners and boundary lines and is used to legally define the limits of a property. It may also include locating easement lines and encroachments.
Attention to Detail
Superior combines both accuracy and the ability to get the job done above and beyond your expectations. It’s the attention to detail that ensures your project is done right and on time. This sets the firm far ahead of their competition.

Superior is committed to delivering surveys as quickly as possible. Please let us know if you have a due diligence period or other deadline and we will gladly check our resources to see if we can offer an expedited option if our standard turnaround time is not within the project timelines.
Client-Focused Approach
In an effort to make your life easier, Superior has developed standard formatting and computer drafted surveys to provide consistent, legible and easy-to-read drawings. Additionally, title commitment items and problem areas are shown on the survey using a convenient numbering system. Surveys are also color-coded for easy title report exception recognition.

Description & Exhibit
Descriptions clearly describe a subject area. They can describe land, easements, improvements, or key locations in a property. The map that accompanies and portrays the Description is called the Exhibit. These are used in the process of transferring land and constructing improvements.
