How do I know if my property is platted or not?
If your deed or contract for sale indentifies the property by a lot number and block within a subdivision the property is probably platted. If the property is described in metes and bounds or with a legal description the property is probably not platted. You can also check for the description of your property at the following websites. You will need to know if your property is within Dallas or Rockwall County.
