Have you ever thought about how people who buy land-locked property handle it? Not every property can have access to a road, right? And in our sue-happy culture today, people likely will not look too encouragingly on the idea of intruding on a neighbor's land to obtain access to the nearest highway. What then can you do if you are a land-locked property owner? Enter: easements. The basic definition of an easement is that is it a granted right to utilize the property of another without having ownership rights in it. Easements make possible access routes to the closest roadways. In some circumstances, you might also gain access to fish on what would otherwise be a privately-owned pond or lake. Strictly speaking, an easement is a property right, which most jurisdictions do consider it an actual type of property. Four main types of easements existed at common law before various jurisdictions began recognizing their own different kinds of easements. The right-of-way easement was the first we come across. There was an easement of support regarding excavations, next. The property rights of light and air were also defined by an easement in a third case. Property rights pertaining to individual waterways are a last main kind of easement. Even though today's courts recognize more types of easements than this currently, they all tend to refer back to these original four. Easements can be created in a lot of different ways. Necessity alone to obtain access to a roadway is not adequate, contrary to common belief. Parcels of land that do not have access to a public road may get an easement across an adjacent parcel only if crossing that land is totally necessary. There must have been some original intent to grant the parcel with access that simply did not get recorded, despite the reason. If a land-locked property owner cannot meet the qualification of absolute necessity, he or she might also consider asking a neighboring landowner for an easement. Although they are acknowledged as a partial right, easements are thus not absolute property rights. You can obtain an easement for various purposes, depending on what you as a landowner actually need it for. Just the same, the landowner who requires the easement is not thought to be the owner of the property. The easement itself or the right to utilize the property for a particular purpose is instead what the property right refers to.
