This sale has been complete since November and the surveyor was supposed to finish the rest of the work after the paperwork was signed so there was no confusion on what acreage was needing to be surveyed.
There was 60 acres left as a will for two brothers. None of it had been surveyed so the half that was being sold was to be surveyed at the time of the sell. Well I have paperwork showing where the monument markers are at but not really sure they are there
because there was never any stakes visible. The surveyor has been paid. I contact him and leave messages and text and he claims he will wrap it up by the month end but the end of the month comes and nothing is done.
Now I'm ready to put pressure on him. It's been long enough. Should I expect him to walk it out with me or is that asking too much? Are surveyors busy 24/7? It's not like he denies the work needs to be done. He says he will finish it. But it's been 6 months. Should I contact realtor? Pay surveyor a visit? Keep calling surveyor? File small claims? Opinions or help to see if I have everything I need but just need field work to be completed?
