Research, describe, seal — usually within the week.

A legal description is only as good as the record it is built on. We research first, draw second and write the description the recorder will accept.

  1. 01 · Research

    Deeds, plats and record

    We pull the vesting deed, the plat and the adjoining descriptions, and identify the controlling monuments and the datum before a line is drawn.

  2. 02 · Field (when needed)

    Locate the controlling points

    For easements and splits that depend on existing improvements or monuments, a crew locates them with GNSS and total station; many descriptions can be prepared from record alone.

  3. 03 · Sketch & legal

    Recordable and sealed

    Sketch to accompany the description and the metes-and-bounds description itself, formatted for the county recorder, signed and sealed by a Florida PSM.

What a SurveyFy sketch & legal includes

A description that closes, a sketch that matches it and a surveyor who answers the recorder's or the attorney's questions.

  • Metes-and-bounds legal description that closes mathematically and ties to the record
  • Sketch of description drawn to the county's recording format, not a survey of the whole parcel
  • Easement and right-of-way descriptions utility, access, drainage, ingress-egress, dedications and vacations
  • Parcel splits and combinations with the sketch and legal the county requires for the application
  • Specific purpose surveys when the description depends on locating existing improvements or monuments
  • Signed & sealed PDF and CAD delivered by e-mail, ready for the recorder and the title company

Record only, or with a crew — we tell you which.

Many sketch and legals can be prepared from the deed and the plat without a site visit; others depend on where a fence, a pipe or a monument actually is. A licensed surveyor reviews the record when you send the request and tells you which case yours is, so you never pay for a field visit you do not need — or record a description that does not fit the ground.

  • Record-based descriptions for easements and splits on platted lots, delivered in days
  • Specific purpose surveys when improvements or monuments control the line
  • Boundary survey add-on when the title company wants the whole parcel certified too

Questions we get before the first quote

Anything else? Call (786) 574-6608 — English and Spanish.

What is a sketch and legal description?

A written metes-and-bounds description of a piece of land (or an easement across it) plus a drawing that illustrates it, prepared and sealed by a licensed surveyor so it can be recorded with a deed, an easement or a county application. It is not a boundary survey of the whole parcel.

Do you need to visit the property?

Not always. Descriptions on platted lots or defined by record dimensions can be prepared from the deed and the plat. When the line depends on an existing improvement or a monument, a crew locates it first. We tell you which applies when we quote.

How fast can I have it?

Record-based sketch and legals are usually delivered in 2 to 5 business days; with a field visit, add the crew scheduling. Rush turnaround is available.

Will the county or the title company accept it?

Yes — we prepare descriptions in the format Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and the other counties record, and we correct anything a reviewer questions at no charge.

What do you need to quote?

The folio or address, what the description is for and, if you have it, the existing deed, survey or the engineer's alignment. We reply within 24 hours.
