What is an Easement in Real Estate?

What is an easement and how does it work? Is an easement a good thing or a bad thing?
🏠📝✅ Make studying for the real estate exam EASY: bit.ly/46L59T9
The most common easements are driveways. If a house is located behind another house, and they share a driveway, the homeowners in the back will have the right to use the driveway to access their house.
Real estate easements exist everywhere.
Even utility companies use easements to access private land. They can use utility easements to fix a down electric pole or trim an overhanging tree obstructing powerlines.
Robert Rico shares the legal terminology and how easements work in this in-depth video on real estate law.

[@sathi6395]

Clear, succint explanation of a rather complex legal right - valuable insight to a non-industry/legal layman. I'm from Msia and our laws were received from Britain, so we have easements but after independence our land law got codefied and modernised and as such easements have been done away with most of newer properties but there are in place stringent procedures to acquire one by the dominant owner. Prior to independence the easement was acquired by proving long user in case of dispute - I think it was 20 years or more to prove long user.

After 17 years I found out I have an easement... in a suburban area. My main questions are 1. Why am I paying all the property taxes, including that area? 2. If there is an accident/injury, or a city violation on it, who is responsible? 3. What if there are both new owners? 4. What if they have there own access to the property and technically don't need mine.

[@basemaattia8905]

A lot is encumbered by a sewer easement that runs where the foundation of a building would be. How will this affect the owner, who wants to build a house? A) Any easement through the buildable part of the lot will prevent construction. B) It will have no effect because the sewer line is deeper than the foundation would be. C) The municipality must move the sewer line prior to construction. D) The house must be constructed to avoid the easement. I would appreciate it if you can explain this question for me. And what's your answear choice would be??? Thanks a lot

[@sarasmith5110]

I did understand it, now. Thank you very much. I do wonder if this is written down anywhere or one where customary use works in court? I was asked to give a neighbor an easement in writing, because I had no idea if he sold the property if the new owners were going to be problem. But I do allow usage informally.

[@kaiherman8598]

What is an easement? An easement is an agreement between two parties allowing an action of someone who does not own the land, to use the land to an extent agreed upon. The non-possessive right to use the land has limits. The servant or better known as the grantor, in charge of the easement may allow PG&E to change the power line in the front of the property, and that is all agreed in the easement. Easements are usually for these types of companies that work on the property. It could also be a neighbor or any type of individual who just comes to terms with the easement and is allowed to enter your private property. The limitations apply to this user or holder of the easement. The owner of the property and easement basically allows, with limitations, a set up upon agreement or (easement.)

[@USRealtyTraining]

Thanks!

[@logansilva8017]

No, it's not always an agreement, and the owner of the land that the easement passes over isn't allowed to dictate who can or cannot use the easement. Because the people who use the easement have a right to access.

[@yuccalyptus]

What about a footpath that goes across two properties, almost like a sandwiched between two houses? They lead to the next street at the back and I think they were made so a pedestrian can easily get to a bus stop or a convenient store in the next street. I wonder if they're a type of easements?

[@USRealtyTraining]

I think this depends on the situation. Some properties will have footpaths behind their house or between their house that are maintained by the city. When in doubt, pull the title out. The title report will list any property's encumbrances.

[@divaliakahlia]

you’re brilliant like the best

[@yolandamartin62]

What is the difference between preeliminary title report vs the abstract title ? They have a similar definition.

[@USRealtyTraining]

A preliminary title report is a specific document created by a title company before issuing insurance, focusing on current details and potential issues affecting the property's title. An abstract of title is a historical summary of the property's ownership, providing a detailed record of past transactions, but it might not capture the most current information.

[@harrygill6169]

Great explanation. Reading online confused me even more but this video is way more clearer. Quick question if there is any water/drainage going under the property is it also called easement which means we cannot construct anything on top of that piece of land?

I'm looking at a house that is on an easement. according to the survey the road out front is not a city street, but part of the property, and is labeled as an easement. so as i understand it, all the houses on my block basically have their property extend out over the road that is really a shared driveway. there's no HOA so who is responsible for maintaining it? and if something happens on my portion, do I have to worry about liability? if a pothole suddenly forms or one of the concrete slabs becomes raised and someone breaks their axle on it, do i have to worry about being sued? and are there usually legal requirements on things like maintaining access to the full two-lane width, or is it good so long as one lane can get through and the neighbors dont mind (I'm mainly thinking about temporary situations like where i would park the moving truck or extra street parking if i have guests over)? I'm in florida if that makes a difference

[@USRealtyTraining]

[@justletitbe2580]

I just bought a house and there was an empty lot next to it, and a week later they start building and the city came and put their clean out pipe on my property and on my property line which on my survey it clearly says here’s no easement there,but I have easement on the back of my house ,problem is that the city put their clean out pipe on my property not on my easement,and is it legal for them to even put someone else’s clean out pipe on my easement as well ?

[@CityWok971]

If i have an access easement on my property, does that allow someone to just park there everyday? Is that not trespassing?

[@USRealtyTraining]

Access easements are used to give people the right of way over private land. I'm unsure about your unique situation and it would be best to speak to a real estate lawyer or someone who can help you specifically.

[@livefreeordie9931]

Hello there.. I like the way you explained easements. Pretty simple. I have an easement question for you please. Can I route my easement in which ever way I please thru my land as long as I give the neighbor behind me access?

[@jonathanalves59]

Who’s dominant when it’s side by side?

[@USRealtyTraining]

If it's an easement, the title will clarify which property is dominant.

[@emmycar473]

What happens if the utility poll easement is not disclosed by the agent and it is not in the title report ? They said later it is prescriptive easement. Does it need to be in the title report and what to do regarding reporting the title company?

[@USRealtyTraining]

That does match the description of a prescriptive easement. These easements aren't seen in the title report and are assigned without notifying the title owner. It is possible to extinguish the prescriptive easement. To do so, you will have to resolve the reason for why the easement was first assigned. I know this didn't directly solve the issue but we hope it steered you in the right direction.

[@kimla4807]

Why would they built like that ?? Why the builder built property like that?? If it’s a problem pass some1 land then why they built at first place ?? Don’t understand. After built then it’s a easement problem. Don’t they know it’s a easement problem when they first built the property?? Don’t understand

[@USRealtyTraining]

There could be many reasons for it. It could have been an entire lot that is broken up into multiple homes. For example, in the city, you could have multiple homes sharing the same driveway just based on dividing the land up and the zoned space around it. In the country, there could be multiple homes that stretch backward along a stream or hillside and all share the road because you won't have multiple roads cutting through people's homes or land.

Hi, Alejandra! This is a great question. Our students post ads in the student portal discussion board when they're looking for study partners.

[@zainabbashir170]

What is the difference between public easement and private easement?

[@USRealtyTraining]

Hi, Zainab. This is a great question. The difference between public and private easement comes down to who this easement is for. Public easements is for the public. An example would be sidewalks or streets. A private easement would be for a private entity. An example would be a neighbor using a homeowner's driveway. Hope this cleared things up! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I'm always happy to help.

[@lancewallach3201]

As of February, about 84 percent of syndicated easements were in some stage of an IRS audit, according to the finance committee report, which was released in August. The report found that about $10.6 billion of tax revenue was lost to syndicated easements between 2010 and 2017. And lawmakers in September introduced a new bill aimed at closing such loopholes. The IRS publicly flagged syndicated conservation easements in December 2016, and the Department of Justice filed suit against several Georgia-based promoters two years later. But the amount of tax revenue lost to easements continues to grow. IRS data shows total deductions claimed through syndicators rose to $9.2 billion in 2018 from $6.8 billion in 2017. “The IRS shamed these scammers by publicly listing these transactions, but the continued growth in their numbers shows that shame alone won’t do the trick,” Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) said in a statement in September. “The IRS and the Department of Justice will continue to do their job enforcing the law. Now it’s the job of Congress to clearly prohibit these abusive schemes.” Lance Wallach receives hundreds of calls to fight the IRS and get money back from the promoters who sold these scams. As an expert witness Lance Wallach has never lost a case. Google Lance Wallach and your advisor, who looks better? 516-236-8440 [e-mail]

If an easement is partially on your property do you have a right to use it?

[@USRealtyTraining]

Hard to say in this situation. I would recommend speaking with a legal professional to give you their best opinion on the matter.

[@kayrey929]

What about if the person utilizing the easement is living at the location (not a rental), but is not on the title of the home? Are you able to not allow that person to use the easement if there is another way to access the home?

[@dandoe7260]

Have a question. I have a property in Damascus, Oregon and it came with an utility easement, it's right on the hwy, I've applied for a 2nd driveway for a home based business, ODOT approved it, I'm ready to start, but Verizon just ran a cable in the easement which is about 3' higher than my driveway as there is an embankment we have to cut through, I contacted them before they ran the cable, told them that there is a driveway going in, they still went ahead and did it. Now they're telling me that I'm responsible for moving the conduit that holds the cable lower at my expens, is that correct? The cable is fiber optic.

Out of curiosity, how is the easement laid out on the property?

[@meditatestaycalm8321]

I have recently acquired a new piece of property which I have found is landlocked because I cannot access it due to a stream the backside of the property is in another Mansfield he is not very user-friendly how do I acquire an easement adjoining properties have agreed to give me an easement to access from the other side

What about a right of way?

[@KassirFamily]

Can the surveillance put a gate without my permission?

[@ironllama]

So if there is another access point to their property but have used my land for 20 years per their claim as a shortcut still valid? House a and B and both hers house B she claims she can't access through her land which is a lie since they're land locked and attached to each other. She uses my land as a path to get to the back of lot B which she claims if she builds a house there she needs access too.

So who cuts the grass on the easement?

[@USRealtyTraining]

The person who owns the land would cut the grass. Easement is only a right of passage through one person's land. Hope that makes sense.
