ALTA/NSPS land title survey

An ALTA/NSPS land title survey follows the national standards adopted by the American Land Title Association and the National Society of Professional Surveyors. Commercial buyers, lenders and title insurers use it because it ties the boundary, improvements, easements and title exceptions together on one certified drawing.

Questions about alta/nsps land title survey

What are Table A items?

Optional items on the ALTA/NSPS standards, such as flood zone, zoning, parking counts or utilities, that the client ticks as needed. Your lender or title company usually sets the list.

Do I need an ALTA survey for a house?

Rarely. A mortgage and title survey covers most residential closings. ALTA surveys are for commercial property and larger transactions.
