Need to find survey pins? We became miniDIY experts in trying to find ours through a lot of trial and error, miles, and frustration. I had no idea there were several methods to go about finding property pins,so I give an overview to get you rolling. ⬇⬇⬇⬇

You'll need:
○ Boundary survey
○ tape measure that can span the length of your property lines
○ metal detector
○ compass (check your phone before buying one)

Just a heads up that survey business is legit with licensing and all that. Keep this in mind if you're doing something that could land you in a land dispute with a neighbor (like a fence), . I'm just DIY looking for pins that we had some documentation of from a mere 3 years prior.
