I always put them in the same document, and that applies to lots of other things –boundary line agreements and the necessary deeds, and so on. They are all indexed by parcel number anyway, so unless there is an inputting error at the Auditor’s office, if you search for a parcel number you will get everything. I am wondering where this comes from. And as to what can be recorded, that is by statute, pretty much anything. They can charge extra fees for extra titles and so on, but I must be missing something. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>Rob<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>Robert D.
