Pinecrest, FL · Miami-Dade County
Survey Affidavit
A property owner's sworn statement confirming that an existing survey accurately represents structures and conditions on their property for permit purposes.
What this form is
This affidavit allows property owners to obtain a building permit using a survey older than five years, provided they attest to its accuracy. The property owner certifies that the survey accurately depicts all existing structures and site conditions, and agrees to address any unpermitted or code-violating structures on the property. This streamlines the permitting process when a recent survey is unavailable.
Who needs it
Property owners applying for building permits who have an existing survey more than five years old and want to avoid commissioning a new survey.
Why it needs a notary
The affidavit must be sworn before a notary public because it is a signed attestation by the property owner that legally confirms the survey's accuracy for official permit review purposes.
