So, the budding hoarder next door has built an ugly shed, cobbled together from rusting cast offs, close to the boundary line. The shed posts are about 1 metre from the fence but the rusted iron roof is closer. The local Council took a look and told me that yes, it's 70cm from the shared boundary but I will need to get a registered survey to prove where the boundary line is. I thought the Council would have this info? Can I look at the Council info for free or do I need to pay for a LIM or for the Council to retrieve the info? Worse case scenario (since the hoarder is likely to extend his hoarding shack closer to us in the future) how much does a registered surveyor cost?
