<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">OK- here's my 2 cents after 41 years of practice: I would re-record to correct real property address. Literally type that at the top of a certified copy of the recorded deed. Pay the recording
fees. Let the client know. It's a little embarrassing but if it helps you sleep better at night, it's well worth it. Clients do appreciate candor. If this is the worst thing you ever do, count yourself lucky. We are too darn hard on ourselves. If there is
title insurance, get an endorsement. Believe me, corrected deeds to correct scriveners deeds are done ALL THE TIME. As my late mother used to say, " Shame on you for being human..."<o:p></o:p></span></p>
