Property Law: Everything that You Need to Know

Property law is a complex area of law that governs the ownership, use, and transfer of property. It is important to have a basic understanding of property law, whether you are buying a home, renting an apartment, or starting a business.

What is Property?

Property is anything that is valuable and that can be owned. It can be tangible property, such as land, buildings, and cars, or it can be intangible property, such as copyrights and trademarks.

Types of Property

There are two main types of properties, real estate property and personal property. 

• Real estate is land, and anything permanently attached to it, such as buildings, structures, and fixtures. 
• Personal property is everything else, such as cars, furniture, and electronics.

Property Ownership

Property can be owned by individuals, businesses, and other legal entities. Property ownership is a bundle of rights, including the right to possess, use, and dispose of the property.

Property Transfer

Property can be transferred from one owner to another through a variety of means, such as sale, gift, or inheritance. Property transfers must be in writing and must be properly recorded in the appropriate government office.

Property Disputes

Property disputes are common, and they can be complex and expensive to resolve. If you have a property dispute, you should consult with an experienced property lawyer.

Here are some common types of property disputes:

• Boundary disputes: These disputes arise when two or more neighbors disagree about the location of their property lines or boundary.
• Easement disputes: These disputes arise when there is a disagreement about the rights of an easement holder.
• Title disputes: These disputes arise when there is a question about the ownership of a piece of property.
• Liens: These disputes arise when a lien holder is trying to foreclose on their lien.
• Zoning disputes: These disputes arise when a property owner is trying to use their property in a way that is not permitted by zoning laws.
