Many people think of owning land as the end-all, be-all of property ownership. But it is not. Easements are a particular method of owning an interest in land. A very common type of easement is one own by your local city so they can enter your property to maintain utilities. Sometimes, a person will own a "right of way" over someone else's land so they can access their land. Many easements relate to one parcel adjacent to another; some easements deal with just one plot of land.
There are many, unique types of easements and they often reflect the nature, character, and needs of using the land. If you have questions about an easement on your land or believe you may need to have one, please contact our office and we can discuss this with you further in depth.
