Easements, Access and Surveys for Land in Southeast Minnesota

Legal access, recorded easements and a current survey decide what you can actually do with a parcel. Here's what to check before you buy.

How do I check access, easements and boundary lines on rural land?

Confirm the parcel touches a public road or has a recorded access easement, read every easement document, and get a survey from a licensed surveyor. Old fences and county GIS maps don't settle boundaries. Why it matters to you: access and lines can decide whether you can build, farm, hunt, or ever sell easily.
