And does anyone do Improvement Location Certificates?

An ILC is usually required by the title company and required on unusual or older properties. It's actually a cheap piece of mind for the cost and amount of work that goes into it.

If it were me, I wouldn't buy property without it being represented by a full survey and pins in the ground at every corner. But I guess I am a little biased.

I think it is odd when sellers require the buyers pay for surveys, shouldn't the seller identify the boundaries they are trying to sell?

I am paying, my agent tried to get the buyer to pay half be he declined. No big deal, $175 isnt something to complain about in the big picture.

Didn't mean to direct that at you, just an observation I see daily.

Check your closing papers from when you bought the house, you may already have one.
