How does GTC buy property or acquire an easement?
GTC contacts property owners for permission to survey the property. During the survey, it may be necessary for GTC to trim or cut trees to establish a line of sight or to take soil borings to determine subsurface characteristics. Survey information is critical to establishing boundaries and ensuring that pertinent property information is obtained. Afterwards, we obtain an appraisal to assess the fair market value of the property or easement needed. We negotiate with property owners for purchases and easements.
