Answer 1

Check out these lines of your statement:

'AND Person.AccountNumber LIKE' + QUOTENAME(@AccountNumber)
'AND Person.Name1 LIKE' +QUOTENAME(@Address)+ 'AND Person.Name2 LIKE' +QUOTENAME(@Address)+ 'AND Person.Street1 LIKE' +QUOTENAME(@Address)+ 'AND Person.Street2 LIKE' +QUOTENAME(@Address)+ 'AND Person.CityStateZip LIKE' +QUOTENAME(@Address)

This will result in something like

AND Person.AccountNumber LIKE[13123]AND Person.Name1 LIKE[bla]AND Person.Name2 LIKE[alskda] 

and so forth – you need to start adding some spacing!

• put a space between your LIKE keyword and the value it’s referring to:

   AND Person.AccountNumber LIKE ''' + @AccountNumber + '''' +
  

• put a space before every AND in your statements

   SELECT @Sql = @Sql + ' AND Person.Name1 LIKE ''' + @Address + 
                 ''' AND Person.Name2 LIKE ''' + @Address + 
                 ''' AND Person.Street1 LIKE ''' + @Address + 
                 ''' AND Person.Street2 LIKE '  ........
