Mortgage Locations | SLR
Used solely for title insurance and mortgage lenders, a Mortgage Location or SLR confirms that what is described in the property’s deed is transferring in real life as part of a real estate transaction. While there are slight differences among states, in general, this type of report shows the property lines per the legal description and any recorded easements, right of ways, etc., that the title company provides.
The surveyor is made aware of these and also locates any improvements on the lot such as the house or commercial building, sheds, fences, driveways, and pools. Likewise, Mortgage Locations | SLRs determine whether any neighboring improvements encroach on the subject property being transferred.
Construction Draw Inspections
Offering Construction Draw Inspections throughout the entire state of Ohio, McSteen also now offers inspections in surrounding counties in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Kentucky, and now an expanded service area in Indiana.
To ensure the project is completed on time and on budget, a builder will send draw requests for labor and materials according to a draw schedule. The lender then disburses funds based on those draw requests and on confirmation of construction progress.
Lenders rely on a draw inspection to determine construction progress for funds to be released. Draw inspections help to mitigate risks inherent to construction projects through regular on-site inspections with experienced draw inspectors who become the eyes and ears for the lender on the job site.
We are proud to be a trusted partner for our clients, whether it is for Mortgage Locations, Construction Draw Inspections, Land Surveying, or Utility Location.
