I don't really think that it matters much at all.  However, to ensure insurability of title going forward, I would probably ask the title company to insure title using the deed recorded prior to your client's vesting deed.  That should get things back on track.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Typos in prior deed

The vesting deed to my client has typos and weird spacing. It says "Lot 4, Block,2 ," " and "KingCounty".

The deed on the title insurance policy legal description matches this but has the correct spacing for "King County".

The deed recorded prior to my client's vesting deed has correct punctuation and spacing. And, it differs from the vesting deed to my client. The prior deed says "of Plats, Page(s) 36" and my client's vesting deed says "of Plats at page 36".

Do these typos and small differences matter? And what should I put for the legal description in the deed from my client to his RLT???
