HomeServicesResidential Boundary Surveys › Kankakee, IL

Kankakee is the seat of Kankakee County and its largest city, home to about 24,050 residents on the Kankakee River. Its downtown lots, older residential neighborhoods, and riverfront parcels each carry distinct boundary histories, so a plat of survey is a practical step before buying, building, or resolving a line question. A current survey confirms where the recorded corners fall on today’s ground.

What a plat of survey shows

A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.

Kankakee & Kankakee County specifics

As the county seat and largest community, Kankakee occupies Kankakee Township and sits directly on the Kankakee River. Because the river runs through the city, parcels near the water can fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas mapped along the Kankakee corridor, and a plat of survey can show those lines with the boundary. Being the seat, Kankakee is where plats and deeds are recorded, with the Kankakee County Recorder of Deeds in the city. A licensed Illinois surveyor retraces the platted lot or tract, recovers or sets monuments, and identifies easements and encroachments on the drawing.

What Kankakee-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

The river runs through Kankakee, and parcels near it can fall inside FEMA flood hazard areas. A surveyor can note those mapped lines on the plat, which helps with permitting and insurance.

Kankakee is the county seat, so plats and deeds are recorded with the Kankakee County Recorder of Deeds right in the city.

Lenders and title companies often request a current plat before closing so the buyer knows the exact boundaries and any encroachments, even when it is not strictly required by law.
