I read some into our local regs.
Yes the property needs to be surveyed.
After that, the paperwork is pretty simple for an exempt plat. This is a one-time option on a piece of property that you are parceling and transferring to a family member. Subdivision regs and hoops are greatly diminished for this subdivision.
What's the going rate for a survey of approx. 38.5 acres?
There ya go!
Most places have exemptions for things like that.
Cost depends on a few things. Like the terrain and brush, and if there are easily traceable monuments, (survey markers), and the complexity of the entire tract, as well as the division.
Of course it also depends on how many surveyors in your service area, and how booked up they are.
If it's able to have GPS used on it, I would charge 1500-1750 and provide a plat showing the division and provide a proper metes and bounds legal description for both tracts, as well as any access easement for the division.
The quote you get may vary though...
