DO NOT RECORD Recommended Procedure In the Preparation of a Notice of Completion A notice of completion must be filed for record within 10 days after completion of the work of improvement (to be computed exclusive of the day of completion), as provided in section 3093, Civil Code. The "owner" who must file for record a notice of completion of a building or other work of improvement means the owner (or his successor in interest at the date of notice is filed) on whose behalf the work was done, though his ownership is less than the fee title. For example, if A is the owner in fee, and B, lessee under a lease, causes a building to be constructed, then B, or whoever has succeeded to his Interest at the date the notice is filed, must file the notice. If the ownership is in two or more persons as joint tenants or tenants in common, the notice may be signed by any one of the co-owners (in fact, the foregoing form is designed for giving of the notice by only one co -tenant), but the names and addresses of the other co-owners must be stated in paragraph 5 of the form. In paragraphs 3 and 5, the full address called for should include street number, city, county and stale. As to paragraph 6, insert the date of completion of the work o1 improvement as a whole if applicable. However, if the notice is to be given only of completion of,a particular contract, where work of improvement is made pursuant to two or more original contracts, strike the words "a work of improvement' and insert a general statement of the kind of work done or materials furnished pursuant to such contract (e.g. "The found. dations for the improvements"). If the notice is to be given as a notice of completion of the work of improvement as a whole, insert the name of the prime contractor, if any, in paragraph 7. No contractor's name need be given if there is no general contractor, e.g., on so-called "owner -builder jobs". However, if the notice is to be given only of completion of a particular contract, where work of improvement is made pursuant to two or more original contracts, insert the name of the contractor who performed that particular contract. Paragraph 8 should be completed only where the notice is signed by a successor in interest of the owner who caused the improvement to be constructed. In paragraph 9, insert the full legal description, not merely a street address or tax description. Refer to deed or policy of title insurance. If the space provided for description is not sufficient, a rider may be attached. In paragraph 10, show the street address, if any, assigned to the property by any competent public or governmental authority.
