Home › Services › Boundary Dispute Surveys › Genoa, IL
Genoa sits in northern DeKalb County where a compact town center transitions into surrounding farm ground, and its boundary disputes reflect that blend of platted lots and rural tracts. Side-yard fences, disturbed lot corners, and old agricultural fence lines are the usual points of contention. Retracing the boundary from the deed and plat of record separates long-standing fences from the legally described line.
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.
With a population near 5,298, Genoa lies in Genoa Township within DeKalb County, whose seat is Sycamore. The recorded deeds and plats for Genoa property are filed with the DeKalb County Recorder / Clerk & Recorder, and researching that record is the first step in any accurate retracement. Drainage across the county follows the Kishwaukee River and its branches, so tracts near those channels may involve floodplain edges. When a neighbor disagreement over a fence or encroachment arises in Genoa, our survey ties the deeded description to the physical evidence present on the parcel.
They tend to arise from fences that no longer match the recorded plat, corners disturbed over the years, and improvements built near the line. We retrace the deeded boundary and compare it to that physical evidence to identify the true line.
Not always. Fences can sit off the recorded line. A boundary dispute survey compares the fence to the deed and plat of record so you know whether they agree or differ.
The DeKalb County Recorder / Clerk & Recorder in Sycamore keeps recorded deeds and plats for Genoa, and we research that record as part of the retracement.
