A legal description is a written recorded document defining the boundaries of a property. The legal description must contain, at the very least, the city and county the property is located in. In practice, the description has to contain enough information so that a surveyor can reliably determine the boundaries later.
It contains the names of the current owner (the grantor) and the new owner (the grantee), the legal description of the property, and is signed by the grantor. Transfers of real property must be in writing and notarized. Deeds should be recorded in the county where the property is located.
This is public information as mandated by the State of Minnesota Data Practices Act.
