Markham is a south-suburban city of about 11,700 residents, spanning Bremen and Thornton townships. With a mix of settled residential blocks and open parcels, a plat of survey is the standard tool for confirming lot lines before building or selling.
A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your closing or permit.
Markham, home to roughly 11,700 residents across Bremen and Thornton townships, sits in the south suburbs of Cook County. Its plats of survey and deeds are recorded at the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which replaced the Recorder of Deeds in December 2020. The city includes both older residential lots and less-developed parcels, so a survey often clarifies boundary lines and easements that may not be obvious from the deed alone. Fence and addition permits and property sales are common reasons owners order one, and low-lying parcels near area drainage in the Calumet system should be checked against FEMA flood-hazard mapping in the MWRD watershed.
