Home › Services › Boundary Dispute Surveys › Peru, IL
Peru rises above the Illinois River in LaSalle County, and its mix of long-established residential blocks and adjoining farm ground on the outskirts means boundary lines were set at very different times and in different ways. Old fence rows separating former fields, and city lots where additions crowd a side line, are common sources of disagreement. Reconciling what the deed says with what stands on the ground is the surveyor’s task.
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.
Peru is a community of roughly 9,896 residents in LaSalle County that reaches into Hall Township in neighboring Bureau County at its western edge. The county seat is Ottawa, where the LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds keeps the deeds and prior plats we research when retracing a line. Parcels here range from platted town lots to parcels carved from former farmland, so evidence of a boundary can be anything from a set monument to a longstanding fence row. In a market this size, an honest retracement grounded in the record is usually enough to bring a fence or encroachment dispute to a clear conclusion.
It depends on which county your parcel lies in. LaSalle County parcels are recorded with the LaSalle County Recorder of Deeds in Ottawa; we confirm the controlling county before pulling the records for your retracement.
Not automatically. The deed and original plat govern the line. We retrace those and compare the result to the fence; whether a long-standing fence carries any legal weight is a question for your attorney, but the survey gives them the measured facts.
