Anyone have an idea what an estimated cost per mile should be surveying flat ground. Mainly open ground (pastures, etc.) with some scrub shrub mixed.

Metes and Bounds property survey or topo survey?

I am going to have to get about 22 acres surveyed this fall as well. I think it will be Metes and bounds, but not 100% sure. Any estimates?

Peewee,
For a boundary survey on fairly open ground, a good place to start is about $0.35/linear foot of perimeter. There are variables such as proximity to established monuments (section corners), deed conflicts, etc., but this should give you some idea.

Father just had a survey done in Rankin county, 29 acres for $2,850. This is a wooded tract. Got a price quote this week on 20 acres in Humphreys county for $3,500 (open tract). Surveyor is expecting encroachment issues on the Humphreys county tract and mentioned more work/time due to the encroachment.
