AI Summary
This bill requires that certain liens filed with the county recorder must include the last known address of the person or entity against whom the lien is filed, and that this address cannot be a post office box. It also mandates the recording of a memorandum of trust or other qualifying instrument related to real property, which provides details about the trust and the trustee's powers concerning real estate. Additionally, the bill prohibits certain contracts, referred to as "unfair service agreements," related to residential real estate, defining them as agreements that attempt to bind future owners, allow assignment without consent, or create a lien on the property, and makes violations of these provisions subject to penalties and legal action.
