How it sold

The owner said it had deeded access. The title search said it did not.

Ten wooded acres off Copeland Road that the owner said had "deeded access". The closing attorney's title search said otherwise: the land lacked legal access to a public street. Only a small strip touched the road, and title could not be insured without an access exception.

The chain explained why. The family land had been sold off in pieces over generations, and a quarter-acre strip to the road had once been listed in someone else's name and was brought back by a 2013 quitclaim. We wrote to the owner for the full history and chased the survey, and the buyer brought his own survey to the attorney so the access question was settled before closing.

The recorded descriptions that came out of it describe both pieces, and add a nonexclusive easement for ingress and egress that runs with the land. It closed in July 2025.

What we learned

A strip that touches the road is not the same as access.

Access
Verified

Title search, July 2025: the land lacked legal access to a public street; it had a small strip touching the street that did not meaningfully reconnect with the rest. The recorded descriptions now include a nonexclusive easement for ingress and egress that benefits both parcels and runs with the land.

Legal description
Verified

Parcel I: about 10 acres in the SE 1/4 of the SE 1/4, Section 14, T19N, R18E, iron pins at every corner. Parcel II: a 0.25-acre strip, 54 ft wide by 208.7 ft deep, reaching Copeland Road.

How the strip came back
Said on a call

The owner's account: the land was once one family tract, split among heirs and sold off in pieces; the road strip had been listed in another person's name and was returned by a 2013 quitclaim; a local surveyor and the county map office then joined the pieces for tax purposes.

Selling land?

If you own something like this, we would like to hear about it.

Odd lots, divided parcels, land with a question hanging over it: that is most of what we buy. We do the survey, the soil work and the calls to the city and county ourselves, and we put what we find in writing.
