Understanding Easement
An easement is a legal right granted to a person or entity to use a specific portion of another person's property for a specific purpose. This right allows the holder of the easement to access the property, such as for utilities, transportation, or other necessary services, without actually owning the property. Easements are typically recorded in property deeds and can be permanent or temporary, depending on the terms of the agreement.
