What is a Metes and Bounds survey - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-A system

or method of describing land from English Common Law that uses
| | | | | | | | | | |
physical features of the local geography, along with directions and
| | | | | | | | | |
distances, to define and describe the boundaries of a parcel of land. The
| | | | | | | | | | | |
boundaries are described in a running prose style, working around the
| | | | | | | | | | | |
parcel in sequence, from a point of beginning, returning back to the
| | | | | | | | | | | |
same point. (The term "metes" refers to a boundary defined by the
| | | | | | | | | | | |
measurement of each straight run, specified by a distance between the
| | | | | | | | | | |
terminal points, and an orientation or direction. A direction may be a
| | | | | | | | | | | |
simple compass bearing, or a precise orientation determined by
| | | | | | | | |
accurate survey methods. The term "bounds" refers to a more general
| | | | | | | | | | |
, boundary description, such as along a certain watercourse, a stone wall,
| | | | | | | | | | |
an adjoining public road way, or an existing building.)

when the group looks towards a solution everyone can agree on even if

it may not be the best.
