[WSBAPT] Property Law Question (Those Darn Scriveners)

[Mark A. Morenz-Harbinger]

Thanks to everyone, online and off, for their responses to my property 
law question.

For the record, Olympic Title and Escrow (Silverdale office) got me what 
I needed in very short order. Highly recommend.

Best,
_Mark
