Description

This form is an agreement to convey the use or benefit of a tract of land to another party for a specific limited purpose without giving the party the right to possess, take from, improve or sell the tract of land. A Deed of Easement is a legal document that grants a right to use another person's land for a specific purpose. It is commonly used to grant access to a road, passage, waterway, or utility line. The most common types of Deed of Easement are: Easement Appurtenant, Easement in Gross, and Prescriptive Easements. An Easement Appurtenant is a right of use attached to a piece of land and passes with the land when it is sold. This type of easement benefits both the holder of the easement and the owner of the serving land. An Easement in Gross is a non-transferable right to use the serving estate for a specific purpose. This type of easement does not pass with the land and is often used for utilities, such as water and electricity. A Prescriptive Easement is a right to use someone else's land that is acquired through continuous use over a period of time. This type of easement is also known as an easement by prescription. In general, a Deed of Easement is a legal agreement between two parties that grants one party the right to use another party's land for a specific purpose. The document must be in writing, signed, and registered with the local land registry. It is important to note that a Deed of Easement does not grant ownership of the land, but simply a right of use.
