What is an ILC?


  • An Improvement Location Certificate (ILC) is prepared for the sole purpose of use by the mortgage lender and the title insurance company. It is not a Land Survey Plat in accordance with Colorado Revised Standards 38-51-102 (12) or an Improvement Survey Plat in accordance with Colorado Revised Standards 38-51-102 (9).

  • It does not establish property corners. An Improvement Survey or a Land Survey can only determine the true representation of improvements to the boundary lines.

  • A map is produced that shows where the improvements are generally situated on or around the lot and only apparent improvements and encroachments are noted on the map.

ALTA Surveys for commercial loans are also available with a short turn-around time.


What is an ALTA Survey?


Commonly referred to as an ALTA survey, the ALTA/ASCM Land Title Surveys are surveys that adhere to the standards set forth by the American Land Title Association and the National Society of Professional Surveyors (members of the American Congress for Surveying and Mapping). These requirements can be found in the 2005 Minimum Standard Detail Requirements.
