[WSBARP] Combining Multiple Parcels in Single Deed

[Eric Nelsen]

I see no reason why all properties couldn't be transferred in a single deed; just be sure to list all parcel numbers in the deed index. They need not be contiguous but they should all be in the same county (which is not a technical requirement but it is a lot easier for recording purposes to use separate deeds for each county).

Sincerely,

Eric

Hi,
I have a fairly straightforward question. Client has acquired multiple adjacent parcels via different deeds (some came in by Quit Claim Deed from family, others by Statutory Warranty Deed by purchase). Now we want to transfer these parcels to a Living Trust. Can I transfer all of the parcels by a single quit claim deed? Are there any restrictions on this? Must they be contiguous? Property is in Spokane County, if that matters. Thanks for your help!
Best,
Nick
