Description
A survey was probably done at the time the property was subdivided 10 years
ago. Was the survey recorded with the county? Was a changed in legal
descriptions 10 years ago also made with the County Assessor's office? If
not to either question, why. The title company sees a break in the chain
of title according to the legal descriptions so something was missed 10
years ago with the subdivision of the parcel. You may want to dig a bit
deeper on the circumstances 10 years ago and what the county assessor's
records show for legal descriptions of the taxed parcels. A rerecording of
a 15 year deed with a 10 year old legal description does not resolve what
was missed 10 years ago and will cause further confusion with the title
company.
Very truly yours,

Legal Description
I am looking to cut the proverbial Gordian knot by having an old original
deed rerecorded to fix an alleged defect in a legal description. I haven't
done it in many years and want to make sure I do it right.
Deed was prepared and recorded about 15 years ago, which had an old plat
description. Approximately 10 years ago the property was re-platted and
subdivided which created completely different legal descriptions. Local
title company refuses to insure a pending sale, claiming that the
15-year-old deed description is defective. Small county with only one
title company so I can't go shopping.
Thus, my thought would be to take the original 15-year-old deed and cross
through the description and have the deed rerecorded with the new plat
description from 10 years ago, which theoretically should fix the issue.
Title officer has been less than helpful.
What sayeth you wise Counselors?
