(1) An
instrument conveying an interest in real property, in which the grantee is described

representative, nominee, custodian, or a person acting in any other representative
capacity, shall also describe the representative capacity of such grantee by one or
more of the following means:

(a) Naming the person so represented;

(b) Identifying the statute, the trust or other agreement, or the court

and recorder in the county where the real property is located.

(2) If the representative capacity of the grantee is not described as provided
in subsection (1) of this section, the description of a grantee in any such
representative capacity in such instrument of conveyance shall be presumed to be
a description of the person only and shall not be notice of the representative
capacity of such grantee.

(3) After the recording of an instrument conveying an interest in real
property in which the grantee is described as acting in a representative capacity,
but in which the description of the grantee does not comply with subsection (1) of
this section, and regardless of whether such instrument of conveyance was
recorded prior to or after August 8, 2001, an affidavit that has been executed by or
on behalf of such grantee, which refers by proper description by book, page,
document number, or file to the recording information of such instrument of
conveyance and that contains one of the descriptions of the representative
capacity of such grantee described in subsection (1) of this section, may be
recorded with the county clerk and recorder of the county where the real property
is located. Upon the recording of such affidavit, all persons shall thereafter have
notice of the representative capacity of such grantee with respect to the interest in
real property so conveyed.
