Common Surveys Performed During Diligence

Posted

I am working through a PSA for the purchase of a self storage property and I would like to know what surveys you would say are

a) critical

b) nice to have

c) unnecessary

when acquiring a self storage facility especially given standard exceptions in title policies.

A quick search suggested that the following surveys could be completed in the diligence phase of self storage facility acquisition

  1. Boundary Survey
  2. ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey
  3. Topographic Survey
  4. Site Planning Survey
  5. Floodplain Survey
  6. As-Built Survey

I'm curious which of these are necessary versus nice to have
