What is a Real Property Report?

A Real Property Report is prepared by an accredited Alberta Land Surveyor and is comprised of a legal survey of a parcel of real estate, a printed representation of the registered legal title of that parcel of real estate, and the certification and opinion of the accredited Alberta Land Surveyor who prepared the Real Property Report.

The survey portion of the Real Property Report will show where the property lines are located, the location of improvements within the survey area (e.g. buildings, decks, patios, hot tubs, fences, etc.) and the location of identifiable third party interests and rights-of-way within the survey area.

The printed representation of the registered legal title will identify all of the registered interests in the property and registered agreements concerning the property, including registered rights-of-way and encroachment agreements on the date that it is searched.

The certification and opinion of the accredited Alberta Land Surveyor who prepared the Real Property Report will include a certification that the Real Property Report accurately reflects the state of the property at the time of the legal survey in accordance with the Alberta Land Surveyors’ Manual of Standard Practice, as well as the written opinion of the Surveyor with respect to any issues concerning the legal survey such as encroachments.
