The check is in the mail.....
I'm from the government and I'm here to help you.........
It's wide open, not a tree anywhere............
Don't worry about that wet spot, nobody has ever got stuck there..........
When you get here I'll show the survey that was done a couple years back (Tax map).........
Nah! No squabblin'. Just thought I should know where my property line is............

There's six. Help me add the next fourteen.

I only need an approximate location.

I know a bit about surveying.

It's a three hour job.

When I was in the field...

I'll be at work but will make sure the dogs are inside.
Nah, no issues with the neighbor, we have been friends for 20 years.
Nothings gated, no access issues.
We have informed the tenant you will be onsite.

Nothing has changed since last time you were here two years ago.

Later, when challenged: Oh, I didn't think the restriping was important.

I can show you all of the monuments:

After stumbling around: He can't find any of them and hasn't seen them in 20 years.

Searched for, not found (well, ok, it's half true)

"I don't need a survey, just show me where my corners and my lines are. Should only take you a few minutes."

That fence is on the boundary. Uncle Ebenezer built it and said he'd pulled the pegs and put the posts in the same hole.
Too much evidence of other sorts proves otherwise.
This is such a common response for me when questioning how a fence is where it is.

When a disagreeable neighbour disagrees with pegs he says "we had it surveyed a while back". But can't produce any evidence to support such.

Get here as early as possible and I will provide breakfast, lunch and break refreshments.

I will send you all the research information in a few minutes. All that arrives is a tax statement.

The place is only a 15 minutes past the interstate. Yeah, by plane.

It's an island, how hard can that be to survey?

We are not talking to anyone else, just scope out the job and give us your methodology, time and price and it's yours.
