Northbrook is an affluent North Shore-adjacent village of about 35,200 residents, spanning Northfield and Wheeling townships in Cook County. With larger established lots and active renovation, a plat of survey is a standard requirement for building and boundary work.
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.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your closing or permit.
Northbrook is home to roughly 35,200 residents across Northfield and Wheeling townships north of Chicago. Its plats of survey, deeds, and easements are recorded through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, which replaced the Recorder of Deeds in December 2020. The village’s mature, sometimes wooded lots have long histories of fences, pools, and additions, and teardown-and-rebuild projects are common, so surveys are frequently ordered to confirm lot lines, easements, and setbacks before construction. Parcels near the Middle Fork of the North Branch of the Chicago River and area tributaries should be checked against FEMA flood-hazard mapping in the MWRD-led watershed.

A new build is reviewed against setbacks and lot coverage, and a current plat of survey confirms exactly where the lot lines and easements sit before design and permitting.
It captures buildings, fences, driveways, pools, and other major improvements along with recorded easements and how they relate to the boundary.
Plats and deeds are recorded with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division, the county’s recording office since late 2020.
