Buying a home seems simple: you find a property you like, make an offer, and move in. While that may cover the broad strokes, owning a property involves a lot more legwork and legal paperwork, including a deed.

When Jim Wang purchased his home, he knew it was subdivided into an 11 acre and two 3 acre lots. The owner had put in a driveway so all three lots could have road access. Jim was satisfied with the road (even though it’s gravel), so he didn’t pursue anything further.
