A boundary perimeter survey in the British Virgin Islands (BVI) is a precise land survey that establishes the legal boundaries of a specific property. This type of survey is conducted by a licensed land surveyor, who uses specialized equipment and reference to the BVI’s official cadastral (land ownership) maps to determine and mark the property’s perimeter. The surveyor records the property’s exact dimensions and location, often including topographic features, nearby roads, and neighboring properties. The surveyor’s findings are essential for confirming land ownership, especially in cases of real estate transactions, property development, or boundary disputes.
In the BVI, boundary perimeter surveys are essential for property owners and prospective buyers to ensure that the property lines are clearly defined and legally recognized. Given the complex and varied terrain of the islands, these surveys help prevent encroachment issues and legal disputes by providing an accurate representation of property lines. The survey’s results are recorded with the BVI’s Land Registry and Survey Department, creating an official document that outlines the property’s legal boundaries.
