Complete Land Survey Process in Edo State

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Site Assessment

Our registered surveyor visits your property to assess terrain, existing boundaries, and accessibility challenges. We verify land documents and coordinate with adjacent property owners if necessary.

Step 2: Field Survey & Beacon Placement

Using modern GPS equipment and traditional surveying methods, we establish precise property boundaries. Concrete pillars with unique numbers are installed at property corners.

Step 3: Plan Drafting & Computation

Technical drawings are prepared showing exact measurements, coordinates, and property details. All computations undergo quality checks to meet SURCON standards.

Step 4: Ministry Submission & Follow-up

OME Buildway handles this critical stage completely. We submit plans to the Edo State Ministry of Lands, pay all government fees, and follow up until your Red Copy is issued. Our team ensures no delays due to documentation issues.

Step 5: Certificate of Deposit Collection

We collect your official Certificate of Deposit and Red Copy, then deliver to your preferred location in Nigeria or internationally for diaspora clients.

Timeline: 4-8 weeks for standard residential plots, 6-12 weeks for larger properties depending on complexity.
