Yet a surveyor is needed to actually mark out the boundary lines on a property. They can go from markers found on range/section corners and measure to the place in the legal description, or use GPS equipment to find the lines. Most around here still go the low-tech way and still it's a very involved process. There's a lot of training involved to become a surveyor. They are in high demand and charge a LOT for their services.

I am sorry I didn't make myself clear the title company sets up the appt. and sends out the surveyor to go out and measure the property The title company sees that there are no liens , judgements on property etc. The same as where you live.
