[WSBARP] Easement for property in different county

[Kary Krismer]

Not that I see any harm in two documents recorded in two counties, but . . .

1.  Maybe someone could explain to me why you would need to record in 
both counties, as opposed to just the county with the servient 
estate--the one with property burdened by the easement. This isn't like 
a deed of trust with property in multiple counties.  Recording is notice 
to third parties and I'm not seeing what recording an easement does in 
the county of the benefited estate.

2.   In answer your question the only time I've seen a document recorded 
in two counties is where a deed was accidentally recorded in the wrong 
county.   I don't think they created a new deed to fix the error, but 
that was years ago and I wasn't part of that process.  Would the 
recorder reject a document if there wasn't enough space for their stamping?
