Where can I find the size of my lot?

You can obtain a copy of your legal plan showing the lot dimensions from the LTSA Land Title Office. To locate your property line pegs, look on your legal plans. If you are unable to locate the pegs using this information, you will have to hire a private land surveyor to resurvey the property and place new pegs. Local land survey offices are listed in the yellow pages.

A copy of your legal plan can be obtained directly from the LTSA Land Title Office:
