How to create outlook signature

pass your real estate exam with Prevagen comm remember keep it concise and keep it simple when you tell somebody where a property is you typically give them an address but what if there is no address what if there are no streets the government survey system is a federal land survey system that's been applied to most the land add to the United States since the system was adopted 1785 little while ago there was no Google Maps back then here's how it works it starts by identifying reference lines an east-west line called a baseline and a north-south line called the principal meridian larger then drawn about every six miles parallel to the meridian and the base line the east-west lines are referred to his Township lines and the north-south lines are Range lines by nature of the lines being drawn six miles on each side you now have 36 square miles which makes up the townships so intelligent as identified by specifying how many townships it is north or south of the baseline and how many ranges east or west of that principal Meridian for example a legal description might describe a township as township for north range five west but even if you identify that little area thirty six square miles is still a pretty large area thus next comes the sections the township is divided into 36 sections remember a Township is 36 square miles there are 36 sections so that means each section is one square mile each square mile section is numbered consecutively however you got to realize it is numbered starting with section one in the northeast corner of the township but then it goes back and forth kind of swerving like a snake ending with section 36 at the southeast corner of the township so the legal description can identify the relevant square mile section simply by the sections number within the identified township so for example now we can narrow it down by looking at section 9 here in this Township now we'll use fractional inscriptions for example we will say the northwest quarter of section not the southwest half of the northwest corner section nine and you'll keep on going until you identify that exact spot of land putting these elements of description together a simple legal description used the government service system might go like this the south half of the Northwest quarter of section six Township twelve range 71 west of the principal Meridian you notice when we read the description we started with the more specific information it worked up to the more general which is really not that much different from the mail you get starts with her name then the address and then goes city and then state it ends the more general element more great information to get past a real estate exam remember go to prep agent calm [Music]
