These tools can give you a general idea of your property boundaries before you locate the exact points with a metal detector.

Step 5: Mark Your Property Lines
Once you’ve located your iron stakes, make your property lines more visible using flags, stakes, or temporary fencing. This is particularly useful when planning construction or planting.

Step 6: Hire a Professional Surveyor (If Necessary)
If you’re unable to locate the iron stakes or if your property lines remain unclear, consider hiring a professional surveyor. They will conduct a thorough assessment, find or place corner markers, and provide you with an updated survey. While this may incur a cost, it ensures accurate and legally recognized boundaries.

Conclusion
Finding your property lines doesn’t have to be a daunting task. By following these steps—reviewing your deed and survey, using a metal detector to locate iron stakes, and leveraging modern technology—you can confidently determine your property boundaries and avoid costly disputes. If all else fails, remember that professional surveyors are always available to assist you.

Knowing your property boundaries gives you peace of mind, ensuring that any home improvement project or land use remains within your rights.
