lavorhaynie Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Is there someone available that help me interpret a legal description of a property. I need to draw the property and have a legal description that I do not understand. The description comes from the tax assessor's office. Legal Description: W348.56 SW SW LESS N601.53 THEREOF & LESS W50 N272.12 S APR 718.47 W348.56 SW SW & LESS BEG SWC SW TH N APR 446.35 E30 S APR 195.63 CRV RT APR 247.83 SE APR 95.43 S APR 148.50 W348.56 POB SEC 1 19 10 3.524ACS Below is the picture provided by the assessor web site: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy1 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Why not get an actual survey done by a survey company with their stamp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavorhaynie Posted October 14, 2019 Author Share Posted October 14, 2019 Time and money. The client needs just a simple and not accurate property drawing, showing existing buildings for a meeting with the zoning board. If the zoning board will change the zoning from commercial to agriculture then the client will proceed to the next step which would include a survey. A survey would also take several weeks to complete and the meeting is next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 I would love to know what all that information in the legal description means as it does not seem to follow any known standard protocol, but I did find something online while searching that may be helpful.

lavorhaynie Posted October 15, 2019 Author Share Posted October 15, 2019 Thank you ChopSaw. I had not found that plat map. I did find others at the assessor web site. I too would like to know the nomenclature of the legal description. I've never seen it before. I sent it to a surveyor I work with on occasion. If he can decipher it I will let you know.

madcowscarnival Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 FYI, first thing to check looking for a property boundary is internet search "county name GIS map". Tulsa's is a little more rudimentary than most, but that's where Chopsaws file is from. On some of these abbreviated legals it almost seems an automated program to abbreviate the legals. A brief rundown: W - west SW SW - Southwest quarter of the southwest quarter of referenced section N - North BEG - Beginning SWC - Southwest corner SW TH - Southwest third (though that would be an awkward description) APR - Approximate CRV RT - curve to the right APR - approx. distance along the curve POB - Point of beginning ACS - acres W348.56 SW SW LESS N601.53 THEREOF & LESS W50 N272.12 S APR 718.47 W348.56 SW SW & LESS BEG SWC SW TH N APR 446.35 E30 S APR 195.63 CRV RT APR 247.83 SE APR 95.43 S APR 148.50 W348.56 POB SEC 1 19 10 3.524ACS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
