Title chain work can be modeled as source, recording, index, exception, and review flow. Honesty note: simplified property interests model; jurisdictions and recording systems vary; the pinned first step states the as-of date; not legal advice.

Use a source-flow model

The stated process models a title-chain packet as deed source, recording event, index entry, exception check, review packet, and human review.

Example chain packet

The toy packet starts with a deed source, then records a recording event and index entry before an exception check.

deed to recording to index\text{deed to recording to index}

The flow recomputes the check

The procedure flow recomputes 6 nodes and 1 exception check.

nodes=6,checks=1\text{nodes}=6,\quad \text{checks}=1
