11-482 - Arizona Statutes

11-482. Incorporation by reference; legal descriptions A. Any recorded instrument may be incorporated by reference in any subsequent instrument. The reference shall specify the record location of the referenced instrument and has the same effect as if the referenced instrument were reproduced in full where reference to it is made. B. If a subsequent transaction is not to be subject to, controlled by or otherwise affected by every term of the referenced instrument, such intent must be stated. A reference to one term incorporates only that term. C. If a legal description sufficient to determine the physical location of real property has been recorded, a reference by record location to the instrument containing the description is a sufficient description of the real estate. The reference may be made to maps or plats, surveys, deeds or any other recorded instrument but must contain language indicating that only the legal description is to be incorporated in the subsequent instrument.
