How and where can I get a plot plan of my house?en-ushttp://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-60067-180024/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-60067-180024/At closing, you got a plat of survey when you purchased the home. It's large and drawn in blue in most cases. You can also pay to have a new survey drawn. This typically costs 225-300 dollars. It is a necessary element to getting that building permit, so I advise you to find the survey you got at closing when you bought the house, or hire a surveyou and build it into the cost for ground breaking. I hope this is helpful.

Many times your lender keeps a copy of your "plat". You could try to give them a call. I hope this information helps.Mon, 14 Apr 2008 10:45:49 -0700http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Chicago_IL-134003/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Chicago_IL-134003/To follow on Ida's comment, surveys are customarily provided to a buyer, by the seller at the time of closing. If you cannot find the survey from your closing, you might want to look at the "Respa" settlement statement to see if you can determine what survey company prepared yours. (Sellers very often pay the surveyor from sale proceeds). They should be able to print off another copy or update it at a discount to ordering up something from scratch.Mon, 14 Apr 2008 06:49:08 -0700http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-60148-154379/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-60148-154379/When you purchased your home, you should have gotten a "plat of survey". That's what you need. If you can't find it, call a survey company and they will come out and measure your property. Hope this helps you!Sun, 13 Apr 2008 06:55:50 -0700
