Question 1

How soon can I schedule a survey after requesting a quote?

Accepted Answer

Once you approve the quote, Arc Surveys will schedule your survey promptly. Most surveys can be booked within a week, depending on workload and season. It’s recommended to request your RPR early in the sales process to avoid delays.

Question 2

What is an RPR (Real Property Report)?

Accepted Answer

An RPR is a legal document prepared by an Alberta Land Surveyor. It shows the location of all visible improvements (like your home, garage, deck, and fences) relative to property boundaries and municipal bylaws. It includes a detailed plan and a written statement from the surveyor.

Question 3

Do I need an RPR when selling my home in Calgary?

Accepted Answer

Most real estate transactions in Alberta require an up-to-date RPR with a Municipal Compliance Stamp. This confirms your property meets local bylaws and avoids legal or financial issues during closing.

Question 4

How long does it take to get an RPR completed?

Accepted Answer

The survey and drafting process usually takes 1–2 weeks. If municipal compliance review is needed, allow an additional 1–2 weeks. Start early to prevent delays in closing.

Question 5

Can Arc Surveys update an existing RPR?

Accepted Answer

Yes. (only if your original RPR is from Arc Surveys) If you’ve made changes to your property (like adding a deck, garage, or fence), Arc Surveys can update your RPR to reflect the current state and submit it for compliance if needed.

Question 6

How much does an RPR cost?

Accepted Answer

Costs vary based on lot size, complexity, and whether it’s a new RPR or an update. Contact Arc Surveys for a precise quote for your property today.
