Seller Tip: Survey
New surveys can sometimes delay closings. If you have a current survey in your possession, it can sometimes expedite your closing if there are survey delays with providers.
The survey must be accurate of your property currently. If you installed a new driveway, added a workshop, added fencing, etc. then a new survey will be needed by the buyer if they are financing your home.

There is nothing at all wrong with having a problem that you resolved, but you must disclose this information. Be sure to document what happened, how you addressed it, and the current condition of that specific situation.
