HomeServicesBoundary Dispute Surveys › Highwood, IL

Highwood is a small, densely built North Shore city where compact lots and older fences frequently put property lines in question. A garage, fence, or driveway set decades ago can differ from the recorded boundary in ways neighbors dispute on these tight blocks. A retracement compares the recorded plat and deed to the monuments to show where the line falls.

What a boundary dispute survey provides

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.

Highwood & Lake County specifics

Highwood, with roughly 5,074 residents, lies within Moraine Township in Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan. Deeds, plats, and prior surveys for the city are filed with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office, and that record anchors every boundary retracement. Because the city’s lots are compact and its blocks long-platted, maintained fence lines here often diverge from the surveyed line. Pi Surveying locates the tight-lot corners and stakes the boundary so a driveway or fence question is resolved on the record.
