How do I know if there’s easement on my property?

At times, construction crews may need to access easements on your property. Here’s how you can determine if you have an easement:

  • Property deed: Check the legal description of your property on the deed. If you don’t have a copy, you can get one by reaching out to your county clerk.
  • Utility company: Your utility company can confirm if they have easement information for your property.
  • Zoning and mapping department: Records for your area can found at the zoning or mapping department office in your area. They may be able to provide information about easements on your property.
  • Title insurance company: If needed, you can hire a title insurance company or private title searcher to provide a report about easements on your property.
