The NEW 2021 ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys
Friday, December 18, 2020
8:30 am - 12:30 pm - 4 hours of CPD
After two years of work on the part of the Joint ALTA/NSPS Committee, the 2021 Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys was approved by the Joint Committee and subsequently adopted by ALTA and NSPS with an effective date of February 23, 2021. The committee and nearly 300 surveyors from across the country reviewed fifteen pages of suggestions and comments in developing the 2021 standards. This program will outline the various suggestions that were included in the 2021 Standards, why each was included, and provide an explanation of what each means to the surveyor. In addition, along with a brief overview of the entire set of 2021 ALTA/NSPS Standards, some common questions and compelling requests from lenders that arise in the process of performing a Land Title Survey will be discussed, including how they should or could be most effectively addressed.
