<p class="MsoNormal">I believe legal parcels were created by deed prior to Sept 1972 and thereafter under the subdivision statute. Exceptions would be testamentary subdivision or maybe court order. Tax parcels are created by the Assessor’s office and used
solely for the assessment of tax. Not sure about now but in the old days you could ask the assessor to split up tax bills within a single legal parcel. Sometimes it would be to separately tax timber or ag land from a residence located on the same legal parcel.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">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!<o:p></o:p></p>
