Used anytime real property interests need to be delineated. Describes the purpose of the legal, and the real property being effected. In most instances the Legal Description is accompanied with a Plat (sketch) showing the area being described in the legal. The Plat is effective to give the layman an at-a-glance interpretation of the extent of a description that may be lengthy and complicated in its wording.
Also useful when delineating limits of a complex lease agreement.
