Entry Instructions

Arb

Enter the arbitrary number or, if used, the parcel number. The format and number of characters vary from county to county. Some counties may have multiple fields as this number allows for the county's own numbering system. All recordings and court filings that match the Arb number and the search criteria exactly will be retrieved for search output.

 

Here are some of the fields that may be required to satisfy an Arb search:

Sec - Section

Twn - Township

Rng - Range

Qtr/PC - Quarter/Parcel (or Pcl)

Book - Book

Page - Page

Block - Block

Lot - Lot

Sublot - Sublot

Area - Area

 

Thru

A "Thru" parcel number can be used to define an Arb range for retrieval. The retrieval processing will perform as if the user had input each Arb in the parcel range as an individual search parameter. The "Thru" parcel number may include an alphabetic suffix.
