ALTA Surveys Atlanta, GA
From lender-required ALTA/NSPS surveys to liquor-distance and rezoning surveys — Survey Systems Atlanta delivers precise documentation for commercial properties across Metro Atlanta.
What Is an ALTA/NSPS Survey?
An ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey is the most comprehensive survey recognized by the American Land Title Association and the National Society of Professional Surveyors. Required by lenders and title insurers for most commercial real estate transactions, it documents boundaries, easements, improvements, encroachments, and access rights to a nationally standardized specification.
When Is an ALTA Survey Required?
Lenders, title companies, and attorneys commonly require an ALTA survey when:
- Buying or selling commercial property
- Refinancing a commercial mortgage or construction loan
- Developing land for commercial use
- Identifying easements, access rights, and encroachments
- Meeting title insurance underwriting requirements
- Verifying zoning compliance for a commercial transaction
Commercial Survey Services We Provide
In addition to ALTA/NSPS surveys, Survey Systems Atlanta offers a full range of commercial surveying services:
Commercial Boundary Surveys
Precise boundary determinations for commercial property purchases, development planning, and boundary dispute resolution — performed to current ALTA/NSPS standards.
Liquor-Distance Surveys
Required for alcohol license applications in Georgia. We accurately measure and document distances from your business location to nearby schools, churches, and other sensitive uses to demonstrate compliance with local zoning ordinances.
Rezoning Surveys
Accurate boundary surveys and site documentation supporting rezoning applications, including lot dimensions, current zoning boundaries, and setback information required by county planning departments.
Why ALTA Standards Matter for Commercial Deals
Unlike a standard boundary survey, an ALTA/NSPS survey is performed to a nationally standardized specification accepted by nearly every title insurer and commercial lender in the country. It provides a comprehensive picture of a property's legal and physical condition — reducing transaction risk and protecting buyers, sellers, lenders, and title insurers alike.
