Thank
you Jay Ferris for your program last month on Land
Transfers, Golden Valley Style.
In the
early 90's, when local Author, Jay Ferris walked property with
brothers and area surveyors Tom and Frank Melton, they had some
rollicking good times and made more than a few memories. Everyone
understood where the lines were. Marks were made and calls written
down. This is how surveys have traditionally been done in rural
Western Carolina.
But not anymore.
Today's
sharp attorneys, hired by title companies with almost limitless
funds, can render a traditional survey null in a court room without
much ado. Jay explained that we need to be aware of how surveys
have been done locally in the past, and further should protect our
land and rights by hiring a licensed surveyor to take new
measurements using modern equipment and to file (record) a plat at
the courthouse. Most of us do not have a recorded survey on file.
This can cause some serious problems when property is bought and
sold. It may even be a problem when adjacent property is
transferred. The solution? Get a current survey by a NC licensed
surveyor BEFORE you buy or sell property.
Land plats are available, for a
small fee, in the mapping department at the Rutherford County
Courthouse. More mapping information is available at the Rutherford County
site online. A recorded plat
is not a substitute for a survey.
