RPR without Compliance
An RPR without compliance means that the document shows the property boundaries and any structures, but it doesn’t come with a confirmation from the municipality that the existing improvements comply with local bylaws and regulations.
In this case, it’s the responsibility of the property owner or their representative to ensure that all structures, additions, or developments on the property meet the requirements set by the local municipality.
RPR with Compliance
An RPR with compliance includes the same property boundary and improvement information as an RPR without compliance, but it comes with an additional step: the surveyor submits the RPR to the local municipality for review.
The municipality then issues a compliance certificate if they confirm that the property complies with current bylaws and regulations.
Having an RPR with compliance provides a level of assurance to buyers and sellers that the property meets all the necessary requirements, reducing the risk of future legal issues related to non-compliance.
In summary, the main distinction is that an RPR with compliance includes a confirmation from the local municipality that the property complies with current regulations, offering an extra layer of assurance in real estate transactions.
