Careful what you show
I’m putting together an ownership map.
A ranch wanted it for planning purposes.
The county GIS shows them owning a strip between two neighbors that were split off from the ranch many years ago.
To resolve that I got the adjoiners deeds and researched them both back to creation.
What actually is happening is that the adjoiners are overlapping with each other, but the ranch is not involved (except for a poorly written deed from 1949).
So when explaining the issue I felt compelled to show the two deed lines of the adjoiners, that was a mistake.
That got back to the neighbors, now I’m getting calls from attorneys jumping into the mess.
I only wanted to show that my client’s property is nice and clean with everything, if the GIS was correct,,,,,,,,,,,what am I saying, of course it wouldn’t be.
