Burnham is a small village at the far southeast edge of Cook County, bordering the Indiana state line and shaped by rail, wetlands and nearby heavy industry. Its commercial and industrial parcels, though limited in number, sit in a landscape of rights-of-way where an ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey clarifies exactly what a transaction conveys. For the larger deals here, that certified detail is what protects the lender.
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.

Burnham is a village of roughly 4,000 in Thornton Township, located in far southeast Cook County near the Indiana border and the Lake Calumet industrial region. Being small, its commercial activity is modest and full ALTA surveys are not everyday events, arising mainly with its larger industrial or highway-adjacent transactions. Plats and easement records for Burnham are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. When an industrial or commercial parcel here is acquired or financed, an ALTA/NSPS survey resolves the boundary, easement and encroachment questions that lenders and title companies require, especially given the area’s dense rail and utility infrastructure.
Official resources for Burnham property owners
Full ALTA/NSPS surveys are relatively uncommon in a small community like Burnham, but they still apply to its larger industrial and commercial transactions, where a lender or title company wants a certified, nationally standardized survey.
Because the Burnham area is dense with rail rights-of-way, utility easements and industrial parcels, an ALTA/NSPS survey is valuable for locating those encumbrances and any encroachments, giving buyers and lenders a clear certified picture before closing.
An ALTA/NSPS survey must be prepared and certified by a licensed Illinois Professional Land Surveyor, whose certification is addressed to the transaction parties such as the buyer, lender and title insurer.
