Legal Description
Full metes-and-bounds or lot/plan wording exactly as recorded; include plan number, volume and folio where applicable and any reference to source instrument numbers to ensure record matching.
A precise Real Estate REIQ Lot reduces recording delays, prevents mismatched title records, and clarifies the property being conveyed. Accurate lot data supports clean title transfers, correct tax and assessment treatment, and smoother settlement steps while aligning with standard recording and closing practices.
Key participants prepare, review, or depend on the REIQ Lot at different stages of the transaction.
Each party uses the REIQ Lot for different purposes: marketing and contract clarity, due diligence, and formal recording or title work.
Full metes-and-bounds or lot/plan wording exactly as recorded; include plan number, volume and folio where applicable and any reference to source instrument numbers to ensure record matching.
County assessor parcel ID, lot number, or cadastral identifier used by local authorities to tie the lot to tax and public-record systems.
Frontage, depth, bearings and total area (square feet or square meters) with units and any assumptions stated to avoid ambiguity in measurement-based conditions.
Local zoning classification, allowable uses, overlays, and any known planning or restriction notes that materially affect conveyance or permitted use.
Mortgages, easements, covenants, liens, or registered restrictions that run with the land and could affect marketable title or permitted development.
Reference to the current title binder or policy, recording book/folio numbers, and any recent instrument numbers used to reconcile public records.
Prepare the REIQ Lot as a machine-readable PDF or DOCX and include a clear metadata title to ease routing and search.
Use a platform that preserves metadata, produces certified audit trails, and supports common integrations (CRM, cloud storage, and title systems) so the lot remains consistent across systems and parties.
