Examples of tangible personal property include vehicles, furniture, boats, and collectibles. Digital assets, patents, and intellectual property are intangible personal property. Just as some loans—mortgages, for example—are secured by real property like a house, some loans are secured by personal property.
Personal property is distinguished from real property in that it is usually movable and not permanently affixed as are land, buildings, and vines.
To ensure that assessments are equitable, the assessed value of the property and the amount of property tax are public records. Deeds and liens are placed on public record so that anyone can check the ownership of property or the financial status of a person or corporation.
