Sycamore, the county seat of DeKalb County, keeps a historic core of older platted blocks ringed by newer residential growth, and boundary confusion often surfaces where those eras of development meet. Long-standing fences, additions built up to the line, and disturbed corner monuments are recurring sources of disagreement between neighbors. Retracing the boundary from the deed record clarifies where each parcel legally begins and ends.
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.

Home to roughly 18,577 people, Sycamore sits in Sycamore Township and serves as the seat of DeKalb County. The deeds and plats defining property here are recorded with the DeKalb County Recorder / Clerk & Recorder, the office we research to establish a parcel’s chain of title. Because the Kishwaukee River and its branches drain the county, tracts near those waterways can involve floodplain corridors that affect usable ground. When a boundary is contested in Sycamore, whether over a fence, an addition, or a shared line, our survey ties the recorded description to the physical evidence on site to settle the question.
It re-establishes the deeded property line using the DeKalb County recorded plat, the deeds in your title chain, prior surveys, and monuments found in the field. That reveals precisely whether an improvement like a fence or addition respects the boundary.
Yes. We retrace the true boundary and locate the addition relative to it, documenting any encroachment so it can be discussed or resolved with clear facts.
The DeKalb County Recorder / Clerk & Recorder, located in the county seat of Sycamore, maintains recorded deeds and plats, and we pull those documents when retracing your lines.
