Does the seller have to provide me with the survey?

Hi Kevin;

The seller only has to provide you with a survey if you stipulate it as a condition/requirement of the Agreement of Purchase and Sale. If you haven't got to that stage yet and re still in the research phase on a property, they don't have to provide you with one. You can request it from them, and if they don't have one it's still an excellent idea to get a hold of one yourself so you can validate for yourself whether what the seller is representing as being for sale is actually part of the property.

If you live in the GTA we have the single largest database of survey plans at www.ProtecyYourBoundaries.ca
