I am preparing a plat for one of my main clients and the adjoiner to the north doesn't own his place outright, but it isn't just a matter of paying it off. The bank has foreclosed on him and the security deed specifically states that the bank has forclosed on their "2/3 interest in the property". How would one notate such and interest in the property.
I typically just have the current owners name with tax parcel and deed book/page. The normal stuff. But this seems to need something more specific in verbage.
I would list the bank's name and recording info of that instrument and the name of any other person/s and recording info that I may have found in my research.
Even though I could work out who owns what percentage, I don't put that information on a drawing or elsewhere unless it comes from a court decree stating who owns what percentage.
Sometimes, alot these days, the current owner's deed does not include a description of the property and simply says the same property as in another deed. I will use the last deed that includes the property description. Tax sales and Foreclosure instruments usually call for some tax info identification numbers and I don't accept that as a property description.

The bounds of a property does not change depending on who owns it.

Never thought, mentioned nor implied that it did change the bounds. I am looking for any suggestions on how to NOTATE it on the face of the plat.
I agree with Paul
Now or Formerly puts anyone on notice.

I think his point was that if you just put the latest deed recorded with listed grantee, you're covered. We're not in the title business. I can't imagine any state requiring us to list everyone that has an interest in an adjoining tract.

Good point. Thank you for the suggestions.

Why?
Why are you overly concerned with adjoiner ownership? If it was the surveyed parcel, I would go with what the title calls out. If it just an adjoiner, I would simply refer to what the county assesor calls out as the owner.
Why wouldn't you cite the instrument that you used as a part of your boundary construction analysis? Surely you used an instrument of record to check the adjoiner's boundary on the ground. Perhaps I'm misreading your post.
