HomeServicesBoundary Dispute Surveys › Riverwoods, IL

Riverwoods is a heavily wooded, low-density village that prizes its forested character, with large lots where corner monuments sit far apart beneath dense tree cover near the Des Plaines River. On parcels like these, a fence or wall may hold a line the record does not confirm. A retracement following the plat to the monuments hidden in the woods restores the true corners to the record.

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.

Riverwoods & Lake County specifics

Riverwoods, with about 3,790 residents, lies within Vernon Township (also West Deerfield) in Lake County, whose seat is Waukegan. The plats and prior surveys that govern village lots are filed with the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office, the record consulted before fieldwork. The village’s large wooded lots and river-corridor setting make monuments hard to recover and boundary questions particularly likely. Pi Surveying reestablishes the forest-set corners and marks the true line so a wooded-lot encroachment is answered on evidence.

What Riverwoods-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

Large parcels with heavy tree cover have corner monuments set far apart and often buried, so fences and walls can drift from the recorded line. A retracement reestablishes the corners.

The Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office in Waukegan, the Lake County seat, records the deeds and plats used to retrace Riverwoods boundaries.

A licensed Illinois surveyor marks the true line on the ground and documents the deed research and physical evidence, which supports resolving the dispute.
