1. Easement in gross. In this type of easement, only property is involved, and the rights of other owners are not considered. For example, a public utility line easement would be an easement in gross and would be recorded in the public records.
So, having an easement on a property may have a permanent outcome on the property with rights of the home owner. But not all easements are bad.If you live in a rural area, you run into bad easement issues more often, typically where the easement was created by a parcel owner next to your land.
When termed as a utility easement, it means a utility company's right to access and control the portion of another person's land that is located near utility facilities and structures (i.e. utility poles, transformers, overhead or underground electrical lines).
An easement in gross is personal to the party that receives the benefit of easement. An example of an easement in gross is an easement to a utility company to run a power line across a burdened piece of property. The utility company is the benefited party and there isn't necessarily a benefited parcel of land.
An easement can decrease the value of a real estate, increase the value of the real estate or it can have no impact on the value of the real estate at all. The most important fact is that each property and situation should be evaluated on individual basis, taking into account all the circumstances.
When termed as a utility easement, it means a utility company's right to access and control the portion of another person's land that is located near utility facilities and structures (i.e. utility poles, transformers, overhead or underground electrical lines).
An easement held by an electricity provider allows it to erect and maintain electric power equipment on your land. The easement gives the electric power company the right to use a property for this specific purpose only.
The bottom line is that developers and builders who are presented with utility company easement forms should not just sign them, but think about the kinds of issues they can present. It is easier to negotiate these concessions up front before the lines go in, than to ask the utility company to amend its easement later.
