Northfield mixes older village lots with wooded residential parcels along the north-shore corridor, and on the larger, tree-covered lots the corner monuments can be difficult to locate after years underground. When a fence, hedge, or addition is questioned, the recorded plat and recovered monuments define the line, not the landscaping. A careful retracement re-establishes that boundary.
A boundary dispute survey is a careful retracement of your property lines, backed by research of deeds, prior surveys and physical evidence. It gives you — and, if needed, your attorney — a defensible determination of where the true boundary lies.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
About 5,800 people live in Northfield, which spans Northfield and New Trier townships in the affluent north suburbs of Cook County. Its varied lots, from compact older blocks to larger wooded parcels, produce boundary questions ranging from tight side-yard fences to plantings and outbuildings straying across lines. A defensible determination starts with deed and plat research through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, followed by field recovery of the corner monuments. Reconciling that record against the built and planted conditions shows where any encroachment lies. Homeowners and attorneys turn to the finding to resolve the matter.
