Anyone live with a general plat exception rather than insisting upon the title company specifying the matters on plat which constitute exceptions? This deal is in Source Carolina, but I don’t think the title company is pushing back because of any state law issue. I’m not accepting the broad exception, but I’m curious how often others do accept that.

I prefer that they itemize the matters they’re taking exception to, but I’ve agreed to a general plat exception a few times in order to get a deal done.

Yeah it’s generally fine so long as I can read and see what the plat exceptions are.

I accept it unless there is nothing on the plat.

I always ask for plat matters to be listed individually. That's just how I was taught to do it and I can't in good conscious tell you why my way is better, just that it's what I do.

South Carolina real estate attorney here. You should totally make them specify the matters on the plat that constitute exceptions…. Don’t let them be lazy. Lol

Also in south Carolina don't they record plats like boundary surveys, so platted matters aren't necessarily granting new rights if not signed by property owner with granting language?

I try to get plats kicked off my title whenever there isn't granting language creating new rights or obligations (or make the title company combine with the instrument that is cross referencing to the plat like for an easment with an area as recorded in blah blah)

A client developer group just told me they reached terms to “buy equity in a lease.” From what they’ve told me, if we were setting this up fresh, I’d do a new LLC and easily handle capital contributions, buy-sell, etc. in the new LLC agreement. However, here the partner had a long-term lease on the underlying RE that our group wants to develop as a concept. Lease assignment to new LLC is dicey, but I’m thinking maybe we set up a Mgmt services company to contract w/ the partner-tenant entity?
