HomeServicesBoundary Dispute Surveys › Buffalo Grove, IL

Buffalo Grove grew mainly as planned subdivisions spanning two counties, so its lot lines are well platted, yet fences, decks, and sheds added over the years can wander from those recorded lines. When a neighbor raises an encroachment, a retracement survey ties the deed and plat to the monuments on site. That comparison settles the disagreement.

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.

Buffalo Grove & Lake County specifics

Buffalo Grove, with about 43,212 residents, lies in Vernon Township (also Ela) and, for its Lake County portion, sits in a county seated at Waukegan (the village also extends into Cook County). For the Lake County section, deeds, plats, and prior surveys are filed with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office, and confirming the governing county is part of the retracement. Even in planned communities, owner-added structures gradually drift from the platted line, creating the fence and deck disputes a retracement is built to resolve. Pi Surveying pins down the governing monuments and marks the boundary so the encroachment question can be put to rest.

What Buffalo Grove-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

Records sit in the county that contains your parcel, so we confirm whether your Buffalo Grove lot is in Lake or Cook before pulling the deeds and plats for the survey.

Yes, because fences, decks, and sheds added over time often creep past the platted line even when the original lots were clearly surveyed. A retracement clarifies the true boundary.

The Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office in Waukegan holds the deeds, plats, and prior surveys for the Lake County section.
