The real estate exists
Chapter
32
For most people, the term “property” means a physical or tangible thing.
However, property can be more broadly defined, focusing on the rights
which arise out of the object. Thus, property is referred to as a bundle of
rights in a thing, which for the purposes of this material, is real estate.
Further, property is anything which can be owned. In turn, ownership is
the right to possess the property owned and use it to the exclusion of others.1
The right to possess and use property includes the right to:
• occupy;
• sell or dispose;

226 Real Estate Principles, Second Edition
• encumber; or
• lease the property.
Property is divided into two primary categories:
• real estate, also called real property or realty; and
• personal property, also called personalty.2
Real estate is characterized as immovable, whereas personal property is
movable.3
Personal property is defined, by way of exclusion, as all property which is
not classified as real estate.4
While the distinction between real estate and personal property seems
apparent at first glance, the difference is not always so clear.
Real estate can be physically cut up by severance of a part of the earth (i.e.,
removal of minerals). Title to real estate can also be cut up in terms of time,
providing sequential ownership.
For example, fee ownership can be conveyed to one person for life, and on
their death, transferred by the fee owner to another. Time sharing is another
example of the allocation of ownership by time, such as the exclusive right
to occupy a space for only three weeks during the year.
Title to real estate can also be fractionalized by concurrently vesting title
in the name of co-owners, such as tenants-in-common who each hold an
undivided (fractional) ownership interest in the real estate.
Possession to real estate can be cut out of the fee ownership for a period of
time. For instance, the fee owner of real estate acting as a landlord conveys
possession of the property to a tenant under a lease agreement for the term of
a lease. When the tenancy expires or is terminated, possession of the property
will revert to the landlord. The landlord retains fee title to the real estat.

The presentation seeks to summarize the requirements set by the examiners and outlined by the syllabus to assist students preparing for the exam a quick reference guide. Property law for CAPE can be seen as a complex area of study based on some of the principles employed, however CAPE focuses on the core principles set down within the Caribbean legal systems and with some of it's origins from the Roman/Dutch laws and principles The UK English common law system still plays much of an active role in the development of these principles, however with a few changes made by various regions. This presentation however was written to focus on one jurisdiction as CAPE is specific to every region of law and the body of law that governs that region, however once again, the key principles apply across the Caribbean regardless of jurisdiction. It is to note that easements was not included in this presentation since for the benefit of University students a separate presentation on the topic which covers both A levels and university was done.

Personal Property
This week’s lectures will focus on tangible property. There are two main divisions in property: the law dealing with real property (land and items permanently attached to land) and the law dealing with personal property (all other items). The essence of property law is ownership. This ownership may be held outright, or it may be held in common with others as a joint tenant. Ownership interests are acquired in many ways including by possession (in the case of wild animals hunted or finding lost and abandoned property), by production, or by gift. A gift is a voluntary transfer of property ownership not supported by consideration.
There are three elements to a valid gift:
· Donative intent- this is ascertained by the language of the donor and the surrounding circumstances.
· Delivery- this requires giving up dominion and control of the item. With some items, constructive delivery may be applied. This is true, for example, in the situation where a key to a car is given symbolizing that the car has been given.
· Acceptance- the donee must accept the gift. This is generally assumed.
Gifts are ordinarily unconditional. However, the gift may be conditional in some situations. A gift causa mortis, for example, is a gift given in anticipation of death. If the donor (gift giver) does not die, the gift becomes invalid.
Mislaid, lost or abandoned property presents difficult challenges in the area of personal property law. Mislaid property gives the owner—not a random finder—the first claim to the property. Mislaid property is property that the owner did not intend to lose. However, if the owner does not claim the property the finder may keep it. Lost property is treated similarly. The owner has the first claim. However, the finder may keep it if the owner does not claim it (many states require the finder to seek out the owner). Finally, property that has been intentionally abandoned is the finder's, as the owner is presumed to have surrendered all rights in ownership in possession.
The final area of law we need to discuss is bailments. Bailments are created when an owner gives possession (but not ownership) to another temporarily. Most bailments are created by agreement. And although the elements of a contract may be present, this is not necessarily true except in the case of a commercial bailment, for example, where a patron gives a suit to a dry cleaner. The bailment is created when:
· Personal property is;
· Delivered without title;
· Under an agreement that property be returned to the bailor or otherwise disposed of according to the owners instructions.
Delivery requires the bailee to surrender exclusive possession and control to the bailor who must accept the property. The agreement does not need to be in writing for bailments lasting less than a year. The bailment gives the bailee certain rights including the right of temporary control and possession of the bailed property, use of the property for the purpos.
This document summarizes key concepts in real property and environmental law. It discusses different types of property interests like fee simple, life estates, easements, and profits. It also covers how ownership can be transferred through deeds, wills, adverse possession, and eminent domain. The document outlines landlord-tenant relationships, including rights and duties of landlords and tenants. It briefly discusses environmental law and how it is regulated at both the state and federal level, including through statutes like NEPA.
Real property includes land, buildings, trees, airspace, subsurface rights, and fixtures. Ownership can be possessory through estates like fee simple, life, or leasehold, or nonpossessory through easements, profits, or licenses. Real property ownership can be transferred through deeds, gifts, sales, inheritance, adverse possession, or eminent domain. Key concepts include types of deeds, recording statutes, contracts for sale, inheritance, adverse possession, eminent domain, zoning, and restrictive covenants.

1) Easements are rights over another's land that allow the use or enjoyment of one's own land, such as rights of way. They have dominant and servient lands.
2) They can be acquired by grant, necessity, or prescription of continuous use for 20 years. Ancient lights protect long-standing windows from new obstructions.
3) The Land Acquisition Act allows compulsory land acquisition for public purposes, with compensation at market rate plus 30
The document discusses different classifications and types of property. It defines property as tangible items that can be seen and touched, as well as intangible items like copyrights and investments. Property is classified as real versus personal, and tangible versus intangible. Real property refers to land and fixtures, while personal property is all other property. Title to property can be acquired through deeds, inheritance, adverse possession, foreclosure, and eminent domain. The document also discusses different ownership interests in real property like fee simple versus life estates.

This document provides an overview of the history of land law in Tanzania. It discusses:
- How land was defined under German and British colonial rule as "public land" owned by the state, disregarding indigenous customary land tenure.
- How the Land Ordinance of 1923 and amendments declared customary land titles as "deemed rights of occupancy" but did not secure these rights, allowing colonial states to easily alienate land.
- How customary land tenure came to be seen as inferior to statutory "granted rights of occupancy," with customary titles viewed merely as "permissive rights" by colonial courts. This established the state's control over land allocation and use.
Chapter 1 introduction of law of propertyAbdikarimMoh
Property law governs legal rights of ownership over tangible and intangible items. There are four basic property rights: possession, use, exclusion of others, and transferability. Property is divided into real property (land and fixtures) and personal property (movable items and intellectual property). Ownership can be held individually or shared through various estates over time. Original ownership is acquired through sovereign claim, adverse possession, capture of wild resources, or taking possession of abandoned property. Property rights can be transferred to others through deeds, wills, mortgages, or other legal agreements.
Adverse possession occurs when a trespasser possesses land for a statutory period without the landowner taking action to remove them. Under the Limitation Act 1980, unregistered land can be acquired through adverse possession after 12 years. For registered land, the 2002 regime requires the squatter to possess for 10 years before applying to be registered as the owner. If the original owner does not respond within 65 days and the squatter can show possession was not by consent, the squatter will gain legal ownership of the land. The key requirements for adverse possession are actual possession, intention to possess, and the statutory time period.
This document provides an overview of land and title due diligence for mining transactions. It discusses the objectives of title diligence, which are to confirm ownership of claimed properties, identify third party interests, identify issues requiring cure, and confirm representations and warranties. The document outlines how to properly scope title diligence, including determining the nature of the land package and existing materials. It also discusses examining county records to investigate ownership, liens, encumbrances, and other third party interests for both fee properties and unpatented mining claims. Key factors for diligence on claims include whether the land was open to location, whether the claim was properly located and maintained, and whether interests have been properly conveyed.
The document discusses the definition and types of property. It begins by explaining how property is difficult to define but generally refers to ownership rights over things. Property can be corporeal or incorporeal, movable or immovable, and real or personal. The main types of property discussed are private, common, joint, community, public and trust properties. It also outlines the key ways property can be acquired, such as through possession, prescription, agreement and inheritance. The document then provides details about property law in Nepal, including constitutional provisions guaranteeing property rights and provisions around partition and inheritance from the National Civil Code. It concludes by listing the main modes of property transfer in Nepal.
This document discusses easements under land law. It defines an easement as a right to use another's land for a specific purpose. There are various types of easements including rights of way, drainage, and utilities. Easements have a dominant and servient tenement. They are created through statutes, express grants, implied grants, reservations, and prescription. Easements can end through unity of ownership, release, abandonment, or court order. The document also discusses public rights of way and communal rights of way under Tanzanian law. It notes both the advantages and disadvantages of easements for landowners.
This document discusses different types of easements in Texas, including private and public easements. Private easements can be easements in gross, which are owned by an individual, or appurtenant easements, which attach to land. Public easements allow use and enjoyment by the general public. The document examines how private and public easements are created through various legal mechanisms and how they can be terminated. It provides examples and details Texas laws regarding easement establishment and termination.

INTRODUCTION
The concept of property is at the heart of the American legal system. Our eco-
-omic system is built on the ideas of capitalism and free enterprise, and the con-
:ept of private property rights is central to our economic success.
Property is usually thought of as being a tangible object, such as a house
r an automobile. However, in law the term applies to the set of rights related

- Conditions for a valid transfer including the property and parties being transferable and competent, lawful consideration and object, and
Development of Oil and Gas in Pennsylvania Where Subsurface Owners Are Unknow...Lisa McManus
Leasing property for oil and gas development is complicated by the inability to identify or locate heirs who own record title to all or a fraction of the oil and gas. This presentation reviews the current Dormant Oil and Gas Act law in Pennsylvania, as well as pending legislation to address this thorny issue.
This document discusses concepts of land ownership under Malaysian law. It defines land and discusses the law of fixtures, distinguishing between fixtures and chattels. The key tests for whether an item is a fixture or chattel are the intention of permanent attachment and purpose of attachment. Exceptions to the general rule that fixtures become part of the land are also outlined. The document also examines the extent of land ownership rights, including rights to the airspace, subsurface areas, foreshore areas, and rights to support from adjoining lands.
The document summarizes key concepts in Philippine real estate law, including:
- Ownership rights include the right to possess, use, enjoy fruits, dispose of, and recover property. Limitations include those imposed by law, contract, taxation, and eminent domain.
- Land ownership extends to the subsurface and airspace. Hidden treasures found on one's land belong to the land owner, with exceptions if found on another's land.
- Ownership rights include rights of accession to property's produce and improvements. Generally, only Filipino citizens and corporations may acquire land, with some exceptions.
The document provides definitions for key terms in the Transfer of Property Act of 1882 in India. It defines immovable property as property that is not movable, such as land, buildings, and things permanently attached to land like trees rooted in the ground. It outlines tests for determining if a property is immovable, including whether removing it would cause harm to the land and if the intention is for long-term use. Specific examples of immovable property are provided, including land, benefits from land like rent collection, and things embedded in or attached to the earth like houses, machinery, and doors/windows of a building.
This document discusses the doctrines of fixtures and profit a prendre under Indian law. It defines fixtures as things attached to land that become part of the land based on two maxims - whatever is planted in the earth becomes part of the earth, and whatever is built into or attached to the soil becomes part of the land. There are exceptions if there is a contract stating otherwise. Profit a prendre is defined as the right to enter another's land to take something of value, like crops, minerals, or game. It must involve an interest in the land and relate to the produce or profits of the soil. Various cases are used to illustrate what constitutes a fixture or profit a prendre under Indian law.

INTRODUCTION
The concept of property is at the heart of the American legal system. Our eco-
-omic system is built on the ideas of capitalism and free enterprise, and the con-
:ept of private property rights is central to our economic success.
Property is usually thought of as being a tangible object, such as a house
r an automobile. However, in law the term applies to the set of rights related

Development of Oil and Gas in Pennsylvania Where Subsurface Owners Are Unknow...Lisa McManus
Leasing property for oil and gas development is complicated by the inability to identify or locate heirs who own record title to all or a fraction of the oil and gas. This presentation reviews the current Dormant Oil and Gas Act law in Pennsylvania, as well as pending legislation to address this thorny issue.
This document discusses concepts of land ownership under Malaysian law. It defines land and discusses the law of fixtures, distinguishing between fixtures and chattels. The key tests for whether an item is a fixture or chattel are the intention of permanent attachment and purpose of attachment. Exceptions to the general rule that fixtures become part of the land are also outlined. The document also examines the extent of land ownership rights, including rights to the airspace, subsurface areas, foreshore areas, and rights to support from adjoining lands.
The document summarizes key concepts in Philippine real estate law, including:
- Ownership rights include the right to possess, use, enjoy fruits, dispose of, and recover property. Limitations include those imposed by law, contract, taxation, and eminent domain.
- Land ownership extends to the subsurface and airspace. Hidden treasures found on one's land belong to the land owner, with exceptions if found on another's land.
- Ownership rights include rights of accession to property's produce and improvements. Generally, only Filipino citizens and corporations may acquire land, with some exceptions.
The document provides definitions for key terms in the Transfer of Property Act of 1882 in India. It defines immovable property as property that is not movable, such as land, buildings, and things permanently attached to land like trees rooted in the ground. It outlines tests for determining if a property is immovable, including whether removing it would cause harm to the land and if the intention is for long-term use. Specific examples of immovable property are provided, including land, benefits from land like rent collection, and things embedded in or attached to the earth like houses, machinery, and doors/windows of a building.
This document discusses the doctrines of fixtures and profit a prendre under Indian law. It defines fixtures as things attached to land that become part of the land based on two maxims - whatever is planted in the earth becomes part of the earth, and whatever is built into or attached to the soil becomes part of the land. There are exceptions if there is a contract stating otherwise. Profit a prendre is defined as the right to enter another's land to take something of value, like crops, minerals, or game. It must involve an interest in the land and relate to the produce or profits of the soil. Various cases are used to illustrate what constitutes a fixture or profit a prendre under Indian law.

This document provides an overview of key concepts related to real property and landlord/tenant law. It defines different types of real property interests such as estates in land, easements, fixtures, and water rights. It also explains how title to property can be acquired and protected through deeds, adverse possession, and eminent domain. Finally, it outlines the essential elements of the landlord-tenant relationship including different types of leases and tenant interests.
This document contains 37 multiple choice questions from a real estate study exam covering topics like property definitions, types of estates, deeds, liens, financing, and other real estate concepts. The questions test understanding of key terms and how specific real estate situations should be classified. Sample questions cover defining a fee simple estate, classifying different types of deeds, identifying parties in a deed of trust, and requirements for notices and procedures related to foreclosure.
This document discusses co-ownership of land, specifically joint tenancies and tenancies in common. It covers how co-ownership is recognized in both law and equity, the key elements and creation of joint tenancies versus tenancies in common, including the four unities required for a joint tenancy and equitable presumptions that can create a tenancy in common. The document provides examples throughout to illustrate the concepts.

1. Jesus was both a person of his times and a figure whose teachings have obviously transcended his specific context. How did Jesus’s life and teachings better fit the first century? How do Jesus’s life and teachings seem to apply today? Which do you think better characterizes Jesus’s actual life and teachings? Is it more convincing to you that the first century Jesus resists our expectations, or that he anticipates them?
2. Jesus and the early Christians were a part of the larger Jewish context. At the same time, they also brought a number of innovations and new combinations. Compare Jesus’s life and message to that of the Pharisees, Essenes, followers of John the Baptist, Sadducees, priests, and/or the temple. How did Jesus and the early Christians fit with these other Jewish groups? How did they challenge them? Is it more convincing to you that Jesus and the early Christians were part of first century Judaism, or that they pushed to create a new religion?
3. Jesus avoided political attention for most of his life and work. Whatever he taught, he taught it skillfully and carefully enough that political figures allowed him to continue when many others were crucified. And yet, at the end, he too was crucified, but alone. Describe both the ways in which the historical Jesus avoided political confrontation and the ways in which he touched on politically sensitive ideas. Which gives us a better portrait of Jesus—the one who was politically cautious, or the rebel?

Chinese HistoryBased on the lecture on Chinese History and Marxi.docxspoonerneddy
Chinese History
Based on the lecture on Chinese History and Marxist Historiography that we can observe that women’s values for love and marriage have changed dramatically. China entered different periods from the feudal system to the opening of China. In the feudal period, people attached importance to family ethics took the land as the main interest and lived a life according to family rules. However, after China entered the capitalist era, capitalism encouraged people to pursue money and material life.
Marriage and love are very important to a woman. However, at different times, a woman has a completely different way of life. For example, Yulian lived in a feudal period dominated by family so she put her husband's family first. In my opinion, Yulian sacrificed her love and happiness for putting family first, which is a great thing but not worth it. However, Jia Jia from the beginning of the gold digger because of a series of events and become a brave pursuit of their own love and life woman is very worthy of praise.
With the passage of time, people's concept has changed gradually, from the old conservative value of family to the priority of their own ideas, from the pursuit of land as the interest standard to the pursuit of money and material life as the most important goal, which is an important symbol of the changing times.
Jia Jia and Julian have something in common. They all focus on who can give them a stable and good life. However, the difference is that Yulian follows the traditional idea of giving priority to her family but Jia Jia is based on their own ideas to live out their own life.
Marxist Historiography
1. Marxist Historiography has five different stages. The first stage is Primitive Communism, People at this stage use hunting as raw meat, which is the most important asset. The second stage is Oriental Slavery, the agricultural development began, and people willing to fight elsewhere and take slaves to cultivate for themselves. The most valuable is the slave. The third stage is Feudalism, serfs or peasants serve for their king and pay the rent or tax. Capitalism is the four-stage, the most important asset is money. The five-stage is Communism, for this stage that no more private ownership and it will be a world of peace and no war.
2. Base on Marxist Historiography lecture, the era of Yulian's life is very important to the family. She listens to her family's arrangements to get married and takes care of her husband's family after marriage. So I think Yulian is in the third stage of the Marxism Feudalism stage because people at this stage serve the king, they obedient and obey the rules. Yulian's life all follow her husband’s family and obey her family. Jia Jia emphasized that she has money from the beginning of the film. Anything she wants that she just use money to get it. All Jia Jia thinks that she can buy it with money. Therefore, Jia Jia is the fourth stage Capitalism stage in Marxism.
3. On the stage of Yulian so be .

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The real estate exists
Chapter
32
For most people, the term “property” means a physical or
tangible thing.
However, property can be more broadly defined, focusing on the
rights
which arise out of the object. Thus, property is referred to as a
bundle of
rights in a thing, which for the purposes of this material, is real
estate.
Further, property is anything which can be owned. In turn,
ownership is
the right to possess the property owned and use it to the
exclusion of others.1
2. The right to possess and use property includes the right to:
• occupy;
• sell or dispose;

3. Aspects of
Real Estate.
226 Real Estate Principles, Second Edition
• encumber; or
• lease the property.
Property is divided into two primary categories:
• real estate, also called real property or realty; and
• personal property, also called personalty.2
Real estate is characterized as immovable, whereas personal
property is
movable.3
Personal property is defined, by way of exclusion, as all
property which is
not classified as real estate.4
While the distinction between real estate and personal property
seems
apparent at first glance, the difference is not always so clear.
Real estate can be physically cut up by severance of a part of
the earth (i.e.,
removal of minerals). Title to real estate can also be cut up in
terms of time,
providing sequential ownership.
For example, fee ownership can be conveyed to one person for
4. life, and on
their death, transferred by the fee owner to another. Time
sharing is another
example of the allocation of ownership by time, such as the
exclusive right
to occupy a space for only three weeks during the year.
Title to real estate can also be fractionalized by concurrently
vesting title
in the name of co-owners, such as tenants-in-common who each
hold an
undivided (fractional) ownership interest in the real estate.
Possession to real estate can be cut out of the fee ownership for
a period of
time. For instance, the fee owner of real estate acting as a
landlord conveys
possession of the property to a tenant under a lease agreement
for the term of
a lease. When the tenancy expires or is terminated, possession
of the property
will revert to the landlord. The landlord retains fee title to the
real estate at
all times.
Possession can also be cut up by creating divided interests in a
property, as
opposed to undivided interests. For example, an owner can lease
a portion of
their property to a tenant. The tenant, in turn, can sublease a
portion of their
space to yet another person, known as a subtenant.
Other interests in real estate can be created, such as liens. Liens
are interests
in real estate which secure payment or performance of a debt or
5. other
monetary obligation, such as a:
• trust deed lien; or
• a local property tax lien.

6. Chapter 32: The real estate exists 227
On nonpayment of a lien amount, the lienholder can force the
sale of the real
estate to pay off and satisfy the lien.
Thus, an owner’s rights in a parcel of real estate extend beyond
the mere
physical aspects of the land, airspace and improvements located
within the
legally described boundaries of the property.
The physical components of real estate include:
• the raw land;
• anything affixed to the land;
• anything appurtenant (incidental rights in adjoining property)
to the
land; and
• anything which cannot be removed from the land by law.5
Real estate includes buildings, fences, trees, watercourses and
easements
within a parcel’s horizontal and vertical boundaries. Anything
below the
surface, such as water and minerals, or above the surface, such
as crops and
timber, is part of the real estate.
For example, the rental of a boat slip includes the water and the
land below
7. it, both of which comprise the total of the rented real estate.
Thus, landlord/
tenant law controls the rental of the slip.6
In the case of a condominium unit, the air space enclosed within
the walls is
the real estate. The structure itself, land and air space outside
the unit are the
property of the association or all the owners of the separate
parcels within
the condominium project, creating what is called a common
interest
development (CID).7
A parcel of real estate is located by defining its legal
description on the face
of the earth. Using the property’s legal description, a surveyor
locates and
sets the corners and horizontal boundaries of the parcel.
The legal, horizontal boundary description of real estate is
documented in
numerous locations, such as:
• trust deeds;
• public records of the county where the parcel is located;
• subdivision maps; and
• government surveys relating to the property.
Real estate is three dimensional and reaches perpendicular to
the horizontal
boundary. In addition to the surface area between boundaries,
the classic
8. definition of real estate consists of the soil below to the core of
the earth as
well as the air space above to infinity.

The
boundaries of
real estate
228 Real Estate Principles, Second Edition
All permanent structures, crops and timber within this inverse
pyramid are
also a part of the parcel of real estate. The three dimensional
aspect of real
estate has its source in the English common law.8
9. The first component of real estate is land. Land includes:
• soil;
• rocks;
• other materials of the earth; and
• the reasonable airspace above the earth.9
The soil and solid materials, such as ores and minerals, are
considered land
while they remain undisturbed as a part of the earth. For
example, unmined
gold dormant in the earth is real estate.
However, when the gold is mined, it becomes personal property
since it is no
longer embedded in the earth. The gold has been converted from
something
immovable — part of the rock below the soil — to something
movable.
Minerals in the soil are severable from the earth. Also, fee
ownership to
the soil and minerals can be conveyed away from the ownership
of the
remainder of the land.
When ownership of minerals in a parcel of land is transferred,
the transfer
establishes two fee owners of the real estate located within the
same legal
description — an owner of the surface rights and an owner of
the mineral
rights beneath the surface.
10. These parties are not co-owners of the real estate, but individual
owners of
separate vertically located portions of the same real estate. Both
fee owners
are entitled to reasonable use and access to their ownership
interest in the
real estate.
For example, an owner sells and conveys the right to extract
minerals to a
buyer. On conveyance, there now exists:
• a surface owner; and
• a mineral rights owner.
Later, the surface owner conveys the real estate to a developer.
The developer
subdivides the parcel of real estate and plans to construct homes
on the lots.
The mineral rights owner objects to the construction, claiming
the homes, if
built, would interfere with their right to enter the property and
remove their
minerals.
Is the mineral rights owner entitled to enter the property to
remove the
minerals?
8 CC §659
9 CC §659
11. Land
Right to
extract
minerals
Chapter 32: The real estate exists 229
Yes! But only as necessary to use their mineral rights. The
rights of the surface
owner and the mineral rights owner are thus balanced to
determine the
precise surface location to be used to extract the minerals.10
The right to remove minerals from another’s real estate is called
a profit a
prendre.
Unlike solid minerals which are stationary, oil and gas are
mobile. Oil and
gas are referred to as being fugacious matter as they are
transitory.
Oil and gas are perpetually percolating under the earth’s
surface. Due to
their fleeting nature, a real estate owner does not hold title to
the physical
oil and gas situated under the surface of their real estate. At
any given time,
a real estate owner will have more or less oil or gas depending
on the earth’s
movements. The ownership interest in unremoved oil and gas
referred to as
12. a corporeal hereditament.
In California, oil and gas are incapable of being owned until
they are actually
possessed. Once they have been removed, they become personal
property.11
A fee owner has the exclusive right to drill for oil and gas on
their premises,
unless that right has been conveyed away to others for
consideration.
Rather than owning the physical oil and gas, the fee owner has a
right, called
an incorporeal hereditament, to remove the oil or gas for their
purposes.12
A land owner has the right to extract all the oil and gas brought
up from their
real estate even if it is taken from an underground pool
extending into an
adjoining owners’ real estate.13
However, an owner cannot slant drill onto another’s property to
reclaim the
oil or gas that has flowed from their property.14
Land also includes the airspace above the surface of a property.
Under
traditional English common law, the right to airspace continued
to infinity.
However, modern technological advances have altered the legal
view on
airspace.
For example, an owner runs a farm near a military airport with
13. heavy air
traffic. The government expands the military base by extending
the runway
to accommodate larger (and louder) aircraft. The aircraft, on
their approach to
the airport, now fly directly over the farmer’s barn, scaring the
animals and
causing the farmer financial loss.
The farmer sues the government for trespass on their real estate
since the
airspace is being occupied by others — the military.

Airspace
230 Real Estate Principles, Second Edition
14. Can the owner keep the aircraft from flying into their real
estate?
No! The common law doctrine regarding the ownership of
airspace to the
edge of the universe is obsolete. The owner only owns the
airspace necessary
to allow them a reasonable use of their real estate. The owner’s
real estate
extends only so far above the surface of the earth as can be
reasonably
occupied or used in connection with the land.15
However, when the flight of airborne vehicles intrudes upon an
owner’s use
and enjoyment of their real estate below, the intrusive entry
may constitute
a taking of the real estate. The continued noise and disturbance
of low-flying
aircraft has effectively taken something from the owner – the
quite use and
enjoyment of their property. Thus, the owner is to be
compensated for their
loss.16
The airspace portion of land has also been modernized with the
concept of
the condominium. An owner of a condominium unit legally
owns the
right to occupy the parcel of airspace they have acquired which
is enclosed
between the walls, ceilings and floors of the structure.
Included in these ownership rights are incidental rights of
ingress and
15. egress, called appurtenances. Also included is the exclusive
right to use
other portions of the real estate for storage and parking, plus an
undivided
fractional interest in the common areas, directly or through a
homeowners’
association (HOA).17
Also, the installation of active solar collectors has led to the
right of access
to sunlight and air which passes through airspace above
property owned
by others. This right of access to the sun for a solar collector is
considered an
easement.18
Water in its natural state is considered land since it is part of
the material of
the earth. While water is real estate, the right to use water is an
appurtenant
(incidental) right to the ownership of real estate. [See Chapter
36]
Three key rights in water include:
• the right to use water;
• the right to take water by appropriation; and
• the right to take water by prescriptive rights.
The right to use water is called a riparian right. Riparian rights
refer to
the rights of a real estate owner to take surface water from a
running water
source contiguous to their land, such as a river or stream.19

riparian right
The right of a real

Chapter 32: The real estate exists 231
The right to take water can be acquired by appropriation. The
appropriator
of water diverts water from a river or watercourse to their real
estate for
reasonable use.20
Also, an individual may obtain prescriptive rights in water by
17. wrongfully
appropriating nonsurplus water openly and adversely under a
claim of right
for an uninterrupted period of at least five years.21
However, all water in the state of California belongs to the
people based on
a public trust doctrine. Riparian, appropriation, and prescriptive
rights are
subject to the state’s interest in conserving and regulating water
use.22
Real estate includes things which are affixed to the land. Things
may be
affixed to the land by:
• roots (e.g., shrubs and trees);
• embedment (e.g., walls);
• permanently resting (e.g., structures); or
• physically attached (e.g., by cement or nails).23
Things attached to the earth naturally are real estate. Natural
fixtures to the
land, called fructus naturals, include:
• trees;
• shrubs; and
• grass.
However, natural items planted and cultivated for human
consumption and
18. use are fruits of labor, called fructus industriales.
Fructus industriales include such things as crops and standing
timber. Crops
and timber are ordinarily considered real estate. However,
industrial crops
and standing timber sold under a purchase agreement and
scheduled to be
removed are considered personal property.24
A fixture is personal property which has become permanently
attached to
real estate. As it is permanently attached, it effectively becomes
part of the
real estate and is conveyed with it.25
Factors which determine whether an item is a fixture or
removable
improvement include:
• manner of attachment
• agreement between the parties;
• relationship of the parties;

These factors can be memorized using the mnemonic device

The most important factor when determining whether an item is
a fixture or
improvement is the intent of the parties.
Intent to make an item a permanent part of the real estate as a
fixture is
determined by:
• the manner of attachment; and
20. • the use and purpose of the item in dispute.
For example, when an item is attached to real estate by bolts,
screws, cement
or the like, the item is a fixture and part of the real estate. An
item need not be
attached to the real estate in this manner to be a fixture. Items
of such weight
and size that gravity maintains them in place are sufficient to
give the item
the character of permanence and affixation to be real estate.
Also, the item may be constructively attached when the item is
a necessary,
integral or working part of improvements on the real estate.
Fixtures which are used to render services or make products for
the trade or
business of a tenant are called trade fixtures.
Trade fixtures are to be removed by the tenant on termination of
the tenancy,
unless agreed to the contrary with the landlord. The removal
cannot unduly
damage the real estate.27
Thus, trade fixtures are considered personal property.
To be considered a trade fixture, a fixture needs to be an
essential part of
the tenant’s business and its removal cannot substantially
damage the real
estate.
In the instance of a beauty salon, trade fixtures would include:
21. • mirrors;
• dryers; and
• sink bowls and installed wash stations.28
Real estate also includes any incidental rights which are not
located on the
real estate nor reflected on its title, called appurtenant rights.
Appurtenant
rights include the right of ingress and egress (entry and exit)
across adjoining
properties.29

Chapter 32: The real estate exists 233
An appurtenant easement is an interest held by an owner of one
parcel of
real estate to use adjoining real estate. [See Chapter 40]
Under an appurtenant easement, an owner’s right to use
adjoining real
estate is part of their real estate, although it is not reflected on
the title to
the real estate. This right to use adjoining property runs with
the land
and is automatically conveyed with the real estate when the
owner sells
it. Appurtenant rights remain with the real estate they benefit
and do not
transfer from person to person.
Other appurtenant rights to real estate include the right to the
lateral and
subjacent support provided by the existence of adjoining real
estate. For
example, the owner of real estate cannot remove soil from their
land if doing
so causes the adjoining real estate to subside or collapse.
23. Appurtenant rights held by an owner of one property are a
recorded
encumbrance on title to the adjacent property burdened by the
appurtenant
rights, such as an easement.
Property is divided into two primary categories: real estate and
personal
property. Real estate is immovable whereas personal property is
movable.
The first component of real estate is land, which includes
materials of
earth and reasonable airspace above the earth. Oil and gas are
incapable
of being owned until they are actually possessed. Once they
have been
removed, they become personal property. While water is
considered
real estate, the right to use water is an appurtenant (incidental)
right to
the ownership of real estate
Real estate also includes objects which are affixed to the land,
such as
fixtures. A fixture is personal property which has become
permanently
attached to real estate and is conveyed with it. Fixtures which
are
used to render services or make products for the trade or
business of a
tenant are trade fixtures. Trade fixtures are to be removed by
the tenant
on termination of the tenancy, unless agreed to the contrary
with the
24. landlord or the removal would cause undue damage the real
estate.
Real estate also includes incidental rights, such as an
appurtenant
easement held by an owner of one parcel of real estate to use
adjoining
real estate.

29. Real estate, sometimes legally called real property or realty,
consists of:
• the land;
• the improvements and fixtures attached to the land; and
• all rights incidental or belonging to the property.1
A parcel of real estate is located by circumscribing its legal
description on
the “face of the earth.” Based on the legal description, a
surveyor locates and
1 Calif. Civil Code §658
A matter of
possession
parcel
A three-dimensional
portion of real estate
identified by a legal
description.
236 Real Estate Principles, Second Edition
sets the corners and surface boundaries of the parcel. The legal
description is
contained in deeds, subdivision maps or government surveys
relating to the
property.
All permanent structures, crops and timber are part of the parcel
30. of real estate.
The parcel of real estate also includes buildings, fences, trees,
watercourses and
easements within the parcel’s boundaries.
A parcel of real estate is three dimensional. In addition to the
surface area
within the boundaries, a parcel of real estate consists of:
• the soil below the parcel’s surface to the core of the earth,
including
water and minerals; and
• the air space above it to infinity.
In the case of a statutory condominium unit, the air space
enclosed within
the walls is the real estate conveyed and held by the fee owner
of the unit.
The structure, land and air space outside the unit are the
property of the
homeowners’ association (HOA).
The ownership interests a person may hold in real estate are
called estates.
Four types of estates exist in real estate:
• fee estates, also known as fee simple estates, inheritance
estates,
perpetual estates, or simply, the fee;
• life estates;
• leasehold estates, sometimes called leaseholds, or estates for
years;
and
31. • estates at will, also known as tenancies-at-will.2
In practice, these estates are separated into three categories: fee
estates,
life estates and leasehold estates. Estates at will are considered
part of the
leasehold estates category. Leasehold estates are controlled by
landlord/
tenant law.
A person who holds a fee estate interest in real estate is a fee
owner. In a
landlord/tenant context, the fee owner is the landlord.
Editor’s note — If a sublease exists on a commercial property,
the master
tenant is the “landlord” of the subtenant. [See Chapter 76]
A fee owner has the right to possess and control their property
indefinitely.
A fee owner’s possession is exclusive and absolute. Thus, the
owner has the
right to deny others permission to cross their boundaries. No
one can be on
the owner’s property without their consent, otherwise they are
trespassing.
The owner may recover any money losses caused by the
trespass.

real estate,
give it away or pass it on to anyone they choose on their death.
The fee estate
is the interest in real estate transferred in a real estate sales
transaction, unless
a lesser interest such as an easement or life estate is noted.
However, one
