How do I get metes and bounds description of a particular property?
Check the tax map of your particular property to see if it is a Land Court or File Plan property. If it is a Land Court or File Plan property, view the Land Court or File Plan map for the metes and bounds. If the property is not a Land Court or File Plan property, view the sales history sheet of the property from the County Real Property Office or website and obtain the Document Number or Liber and Page Number of the latest recorded conveyance . You would than need to view the Document Number or Liber and Page Number at the Bureau of Conveyances of the Department of Land and Natural Resources in Honolulu for the metes and bounds description of the property. You may also look at prior conveyances shown on the history sheet. For government owned lands you may visit our office to view the Registered Maps and C.S.F. maps and descriptions in addition to the Land Court and File Plan maps.
