Recorded documents worth pulling
Before you sign anything, request the recorded deed through the County Recorder; the parcel line is a drawing of it, whether the land is near Cedarville or elsewhere in the county. Older tracts around Beavercreek can trace back through many deeds, so a title company can sort it out if money is changing hands.
Before you lean on the lines
Parcel lines are drawn for taxes, not measured on the ground, so the edge of a yard near Cedarville can sit several feet off the line on screen. For acreage around Bellbrook, owner names and values update on a schedule, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Taking the map into the field
