FAQ
What Is the Most Accurate App for Finding Property Lines? The Land id™ Discover plan is highly regarded for its accuracy in displaying property lines.
Here are the most common ways to find them: Check Google Maps. This one is the quickest and easiest way to establish where your property lines are. Hire a surveyor. Check online property records. Look for physical markers on your property. Check your property deed. Check a plat map. Review your property survey.
Public Land Records: Visit your local courthouse or land records office to access public land records, which can include maps and surveys of the area. Using these resources, you should be able to gather enough information to understand your property lines without incurring costs.
Setbacks from Residential houses Older neighborhoods may be subject to some exceptions. The minimum distance from the back and side property lines should be 10 feet and 3 feet from any easement. For lots with a width of 50 feet or less, the distance from side property lines will be 5 feet.
Where is my property line? Only a licensed Land Surveyor or Registered Civil Engineer licensed to practice surveying in the State of California can precisely locate property lines.
How Do I Find My Property Line? Review Your Property Deed. Review Your Property's Survey Plan. Search for Boundary Markers. Hire a Professional Surveyor. Talk to Your Neighbours. Prioritize Open and Respectful Communication. Consider a Boundary Line Agreement. Confirm Your Legal Obligations and Property Line.
Property lines can only be accurately located by having your property surveyed. For more information, and to verify the license of a surveyor, please refer to the California Board for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors website.
California law states the presumption that two neighbors benefit equally from a boundary line fence and that they are therefore equally responsible for it. Of course if you want to be on good terms with your neighbor you would discuss a fence repair or replacement before beginning the work.
