A community survey by the local paper had several respondents that wanted to see a "green" public space.  

@Matt Fitzgerald  county surveyors office ... if they have one.. but what the city probably wants is a current survey stamped by a surveyor.I have been buying properties in SC and we get a new survey on each one before we can get title insurance... which is completely foreign to how we do things on the west coast.but then again most in city things we do is lot and block.. and not meets and bounds descriptions..

.- Does not require a Survey Ordered- Does not require an appraisal (just another thing to combat, if comes back low & usually does)- Any Condition is Ok, does not have to meet any FHA guidelines etc.Bank Financing- 45 Days to close- Multiple reasons why a buyer will not get approved for a loan- Funding can be pulled a day before closing- Requires an Appraisal/ Survey- Has to be in move in condition, with no structural problems- Getting paid will be a pain if you do not have a Real Estate License and can receive a commission- And/Or Assigns may not work for most bank financing.

I am beginning to understand why so many people, including myself, are reluctant to post on the forums.First of all, after being made an unwilling part of a note investment survey, I need to correct the record.

Here's an idea - send out a survey to friends, co-worker, and family to see how many people would not mind living on a busy street.

I would survey the tenant base asking about any outstanding maintenance issues or concerns.

If your building may not be that bad, you might be able to either: 1) Pull it out of the map completely or 2) Get an elevation study to lower your premium.I was getting a survey for another closing and the engineering company asked me if I had any houses in a flood plain because they have a service to try to do just those options.I paid $750 for the first phase and they were actually able to pull my house out of the flood plain.
