Cortland is a small DeKalb County town just east of DeKalb that has grown residentially in recent years while retaining a modest commercial base. ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys here are usually connected to commercial or investment transactions rather than everyday parcel work. When a deal calls for one, the survey documents boundaries, easements, and encroachments to the current national standard for the buyer, lender, and title company.

What an ALTA/NSPS survey shows

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.

Cortland & DeKalb County specifics

Cortland has a population of roughly 4,400 and sits in DeKalb County within Cortland Township, in the Kishwaukee River watershed where FEMA flood hazard areas follow the river and its branches. DeKalb County is seated in Sycamore, so recorded deeds, easements, and plats affecting Cortland parcels are filed with the DeKalb County Clerk & Recorder there. A Pi Surveying ALTA/NSPS survey reconciles those recorded documents with measured field conditions on the parcel. Because Cortland remains a smaller community, ALTA surveys are less frequent and generally tied to specific commercial or investment activity.
