When I
worked for the City of Oakland it seemed as if
everyone used Michael's firm to process their
subdivision maps. When I left the city and started
my own firm I hired Michael to do several
subdivisions/condominiums and he was simply the
best. There was never a problem with the city
review of his work and he was always on schedule.
I would give his firm the highest
recommendation.
-Philip Millenbah, AICP
Michael and
his company, Bay Area Land Surveying, have done a
great job for us on several jobs. I know for a
fact that BALS's services are highly regarded by
City of Oakland staff. This makes them a valuable
asset in the teamwork required to get a project
approved. I recommend them without
reservation.
-Thomas Dolan
My
architecture firm has used Bay Area Land Surveying
for several surveys. Michael has been responsive,
competitively priced, and his turn-around time has
been good. I am especially pleased with the
greater-than-normal detail he includes even on
small residential surveys - I always know that
everything I need will be there.
-Erick Mikiten
As a real
estate attorney who specializes in subdivision
law, condominium and planned development projects,
I can save my clients both time and money if the
"project team" works together smoothly. I have
been working with Michael Foster since 1990. When my
clients need survey work, Michael and his team at
Bay Area Land Surveying are my first choice. They
are organized, experienced and always complete
their end of the project in a timely manner and
within budget. I highly recommend them.

Pacific
Engineering and Construction, Inc. (PECI) has been
using Bay Area Land Surveying (BALS) on various
civil engineering related projects over the last 8
years (since 2000) and we have been very impressed
with the professionalism of owner Mr. Michael
Foster and the entire BALS office. As a
civil engineer it is very important to have a
survey that we can depend on and BALS has always
provided very high quality topographical and
boundary surveys for our projects. BALS also
provides these surveys at a very fair and
reasonable rate. I highly
recommend BALS for all your survey needs.

I have
personally used Bay Area Land Surveying for my
surveying needs throughout the past several years.
I have also referred several clients as well as
Realtors who work for Security Pacific Real Estate
to utilize the services that you provide. My
experience has always been very positive. The
professional, courteous and knowledgeable staff
has always been a step above the competition. I
have been faced with short deadlines and Michael
Foster has always been able to accommodate my
needs. It has been a pleasure to work with Bay
Area Land Surveying and is comforting to have you
as a part of my team.
