Record Research Deed Chain Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Before a boundary survey, surveyors research deeds, plats and easements for the parcel and its neighbors, and gaps in the record cause expensive mistakes. When a survey is ordered, this agent searches county records and builds the chain of title for the parcel and adjoiners back to a common source. It checks for gaps in the chain and conflicts between descriptions. When it finds a gap, it searches again by grantor and grantee names before listing items for a recorder's office visit or a title company. It then collects plats and easements and checks that each recorded easement appears in the file. The surveyor reviews the file and decides how to weigh conflicting evidence. Edge case: where adjoining deeds overlap, it notes which deed is senior so the surveyor can apply the right rules.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

An example run

What happensThe chain had a gap between 1971 and 1988, so the check failed. The agent searched by grantor name and found a 1979 deed that closed it. A 1990 deed referenced a drainage easement that was not in the file, so it searched again and found the recorded easement. An adjoiner deed overlapped by 3 feet and was marked senior. The surveyor approved the file.
