Legal Mapping

Murphy Geospatial recognise the value of land and your investment; we also know that the cost implications of not recording it properly can be huge. Our legal mapping and boundary surveys can help to highlight potential issues before you make your purchase or sale to reduce your exposure to unnecessary and potentially very costly circumstances. 

The PRAI registers properties, not boundaries, and the index map attached to one’s folio is for that purpose. It is not a definitive map of your property, therefore it is not considered safe practice to rely on either an OSI map or PRAI map for the purchase or discharge of properties. It is most advantageous and strongly advised that all boundaries be verified on-site by a Geomatics Surveyor.
