Anybody buying real estate should have the property surveyed. Surveys assist the owners or sellers and title companies in determining title problems with the property. Surveys are also used to help divide up property, like when a family member dies and leaves their property to all their kids. Surveys determine the legal boundaries of a tract of land.
How much do they cost?The cost for a job is done on an individual basis and can range anywhere from a few hundred dollars to thousands based on the extent of the job. Each party interested in hiring Frontier Surveying Company receives a written proposal with the price range and estimated amount of time necessary to complete the job.
Can anybody do a survey?For a survey to be valid, it must contain the signature and seal of a Registered Professional Land Surveyor for that state. Each state has its own registration process and set of standards.
How do I know if my property has been surveyed lately?You can ask the previous owners, or if it is a family tract, ask any elderly relatives. Property can change hands several times over several years and never be resurveyed. A copy of the survey may be kept on record at the County Courthouse, but it is not required.
What do I do if I think my neighbor is encroaching on my land or vise versa?You should have the property surveyed to verify your assumption. If it is the case, then there are different legal routes to solve the issue. You should contact an attorney to clear up the issue.
How do I become a surveyor?There is new legislation requiring a 4-year degree in a surveying-related field to even be eligible for a license. The only school in Texas that offers a degree in Geomatics (surveying) is Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. You also have to take two tests, one to become an SIT, and one to become an RPLS.
Frontier Surveying Company, in operation since 1979 is now under the ownership of Ivy Young, President and CEO. Ms Young's past has been deeply rooted in the Surveying industry. Even before birth her father, a pioneer in the design and manufacturing of wooden Stakes for Surveying & Construction purposes, worked jointly with her Mother to establish and run Easy Drive Stake Mfg. Through her father's father she is a direct decendent of Jose Policarpo (Polly) Rodriguez, a Pioneer Surveyor of Texas.
Ms. Young has enjoyed over 20 years experience in the profession of surveying, with the first 10 years &in the field& operating a total station and GPS, locating boundaries, buried well locations & pipelines, as well as pounding hubs for construction staking. That adventure began in Ft. Worth at the Botanical Gardens, moved to the busy streets of Houston, and then the hill country area surrounding San Marcos, Wimberley, Austin, Dripping Springs, Boerne, and even historic Independence Texas. A contract seismic project in the Victoria area launched an association with Dale Moore, founder of Frontier Surveying which progressed toward purchase of the company allowing Dale's desired retirement.
Subsequent years "in the office" included positions as Business Leader and Business Development Manager responsible for human resource development operations, strategic initiatives, and the continued educational growth and financial performance within the organization.
Ms. Young is a Board Member of the Desk & Derrick Club of Corpus Christi, an Associate Member of TSPS & NSPS. Ms. Young obtained a Bachelor of Science at the University of Texas in Austin and enrolled in the first program of the Master of Science in Geospatial Surveying and Engineering at Texas A&M University Corpus Christi. She is also a proud member of the Daughter's of the Republic of Texas.
