I'm a Chicagoland real estate attorney, so I'm constantly ordering surveys on behalf of my seller clients. And after using many surveyors over the years, Sight On Solutions has become the only company I'll order from.
One of the biggest problems with a lot of surveyors is that they are very poor communicators, and many others can't be trusted to deliver it on the date they promised - and if someone is BOTH a poor communicator AND an unreliable deliverer, it's a particularly toxic combo.
But I don't have to worry about either issue with Sight On Solutions.
For years I used a different surveyor who not only provided beautiful surveys but communicated well and was super reliable about dates. And then he sadly and unexpectedly passed away. My office went on a weeks-long journey reaching out to survey companies trying to find anyone even close to being as good and reliable.
From our very first outreach to Sight On Solutions in July 2022, their communications were amazing. We happen to work with Francisco Andrade of Sight On as our main contact and he's brilliant. Then we got our first survey orders, and the surveys themselves are beautiful: very detailed and very clear, and their pricing is very fair.
Most properties require a survey before we can close on the sale, and if a survey is late, that can blow our closing date, which is not only a huge and sometimes VERY expensive problem for the buyer and seller, but it can actually put the seller into serious legal jeopardy. Selling a house is stressful enough without the seller having to worry that a late survey might get them sued.
So if I order a survey from someone and they don't communicate (whether it's to let me know asap that a survey might be late, or to confirm it's going to be sent to me on time), it costs me a lot of sleepless nights, and a lot of wasted time hitting redial or shooting all caps emails trying to get confirmation on the delivery date. Since a survey typically comes in just days before the closing, that's a scary situation.
This has been the only survey company we've ordered from since July 2022, and we have had zero issues. The communications from them are consistent and wonderful, and the surveys are always perfect. Who could ask for more?
Thanks Sight On.
