Identification report is used to establish the boundaries of a property. The report will also identify the location of fences, retaining walls, and building. At Hobart Surveying, you will find qualified and experienced surveyors for carrying out identification survey.

It is advised to get an identification report to get protection from any potential disputes or at the time of purchasing a property (mortgage providers require the report). The local council also requires the report in case you want to complete the pending construction work.
