River Forest is a residential western suburb with a compact commercial district and a university presence. Commercial and institutional transactions here can call for an ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey, mainly for larger parcels. The national standards ensure boundaries, easements and encroachments are shown consistently for lenders and title companies.
An ALTA/NSPS land title survey is the most detailed boundary survey, prepared to the national standards set by the American Land Title Association and the National Society of Professional Surveyors. It maps boundaries, improvements, easements, encroachments and the Table A items your lender or title company requests, and is certified to every party in the transaction.

River Forest has about 11,800 residents and forms its own township adjoining Oak Park in western Cook County. Its commercial district and campus generate the transactions where ALTA surveys are used, though the village is predominantly residential. Deeds, plats and easements are recorded with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division in Chicago, where the Recorder of Deeds function was merged into the Clerk’s office in December 2020, and the surveyed boundary is checked against the title commitment before a commercial closing. On closely built village parcels, the ALTA survey’s depiction of encroachments and easements is often important.
Official resources for River Forest property owners
It is appropriate for commercial and institutional transactions in River Forest when a lender or title company requires a certified survey, such as a purchase or refinance in the village commercial district. The survey documents boundaries, easements and encroachments.
On closely built parcels, structures may cross a boundary; the ALTA/NSPS survey identifies these encroachments so the title company and parties can resolve them before closing.
A residential plat of survey serves a single home, while an ALTA/NSPS survey is comprehensive, nationally standardized and certified for commercial transactions.
