      1.  The county recorder shall not record with respect to real property, a notice of completion, a declaration of homestead, a restrictive covenant modification form, a restrictive covenant modification document, a lien or notice of lien, an affidavit of death, a mortgage or deed of trust, any conveyance of real property or instrument in writing setting forth an agreement to convey real property or a notice pursuant to NRS 111.3655 unless the document being recorded contains:

      (a) The mailing address of the grantee or, if there is no grantee, the mailing address of the person who is requesting the recording of the document; and

      (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the assessor’s parcel number of the property at the top left corner of the first page of the document, if the county assessor has assigned a parcel number to the property. The parcel number must comply with the current system for numbering parcels used by the county assessor’s office. The county recorder is not required to verify that the assessor’s parcel number is correct.

      2.  Any document relating exclusively to the transfer of water rights may be recorded without containing the assessor’s parcel number of the property.

      3.  The county recorder shall not record with respect to real property any deed, including, without limitation:

      (a) A grant, bargain and sale deed;

      (b) Quitclaim deed;

      (c) Warranty deed; or

      (d) Trustee’s deed upon sale,

Ê unless the document being recorded contains the name and address of the person to whom a statement of the taxes assessed on the real property is to be mailed.

      4.  The assessor’s parcel number shall not be deemed to be a complete legal description of the real property conveyed.

      5.  Except as otherwise provided in subsection 6, if a document that is being recorded includes a legal description of real property that is provided in metes and bounds, the document must include the name and mailing address of the person who prepared the legal description. The county recorder is not required to verify the accuracy of the name and mailing address of such a person.

      6.  If a document including the same legal description described in subsection 5 previously has been recorded, the document must include all information necessary to identify and locate the previous recording, but the name and mailing address of the person who prepared the legal description is not required for the document to be recorded. The county recorder is not required to verify the accuracy of the information concerning the previous recording.
