Florida - merge three lots, different deeds, same people
Merged three lots, county is (or seems) happy. Wife and I own all of them, but one was deeded her and me, one was JTWROS, one was Tenancy in the Entirety. All are now merged on county records, so my question is this:
Does the "master" lot deed form (which is TIE) "absorb" the other two deeds automatically? The other two lots don't exist any more as separate entities, they now comprise parts of the "master" lot.
We can QC them as needed, but I wonder if the county will accept a change to a deed for a parcel which doesn't exist on their tax rolls any more. Do we even need to do this?
Our concern is that when we start to subdivide, we want to avoid any title problems.
Thank you!
