GLOSSARY TERM GUIDEBuild the complete exam definition
Learn the rule, separate it from the nearest distractor, then apply it to a Georgia fact pattern.
What does Lot and block mean?
Lot and block is a legal-description method that identifies a parcel by its lot and block numbers within a named subdivision and refers to a recorded plat for boundaries and dimensions.
How do you separate the nearest exam answer?
Lot and block depends on a recorded subdivision plat. Metes and bounds writes the boundary calls into the description itself.
What changes or stays the same in Georgia?
Georgia county real estate records commonly reference subdivision plats. The complete description must identify the correct plat record, not only a marketing subdivision name.
A deed conveys Lot 18, Block B of Pine Ridge Subdivision according to the plat recorded in the county records.
A lot number without the subdivision and plat reference may identify the wrong parcel.

GLOSSARY TERM GUIDERetrieve the rule under exam conditions
Answer before reading the explanation. Then explain why every distractor belongs to a different term.
A deed conveys “Lot 12, Block C” and names no subdivision and no recorded plat. What is the main problem with this description?
- A
Lot and block may not be used in Georgia deeds
- B
It needs metes-and-bounds calls to be valid
- C
It may not identify one parcel without a plat
- D
It must cite a township and range to be valid
Lot and block works by pointing to a recorded subdivision plat for boundaries. Without the subdivision and plat reference, Lot 12, Block C could describe many parcels. The method is fine in Georgia and does not need boundary calls or survey grid terms added.
