Create Property Line Based on Survey CAD file

I have a survey CAD file linked to the model and try to make a property line, but always get warnings whenever align the property line to that in linked survey file, or pick the line in linked survey file.  

 

What is the best and most accurate way to make property line in Revit model? Is it possible to copy lines from linked CAD  and paste into Revit model?

if you have the property lines distance and bearing then you can draw it using those values.  If not, drawing it by sketching picking DWG lines is fine, just ignore the warning and finish the sketch.

How far from the internal original is the CAD? Move it closer to the IO if it's far, far away.  If that isn't a resolution, open the CAD file, save it under another name, explode the PL linework, import the CAD into Revit and try using Pick Lines Method on that exploded version.   

 

BTW: you could just Explode it in Revit (might only need a Partial Explode), create your PLs via Pick Lines Methods and discard the CAD elements afterwards.
