An Introduction to Real estate Investment: Legal Concepts
Question 1-1
What is the difference between real property and personal property?
Real property refers to the ownership rights associated with realty. Realty refers to land and all things permanently
attached. Personal property refers to ownership rights associated with personalty. Personalty are all things, tangible,
intangible that are movable. This includes all things that are not realty.
Question 1-2
What is meant by an estate?
Estate is used to denote a possessory or potentially possessory interest in real estate. However, not all interests in
real property are estates. Ownership can be quite different from possession and a variety of legal factors affect the
ownership rights associated with real estate. The economic benefits expected by lenders, investors, and other parties
in a real estate transaction are affected by these legal factors.
Question 1-3
How can a leased fee estate have a value that could be transferred to another party?
The original fee owner can give up some property rights to a lessee. The value of the leased fee estate will depend
on the amount of lease payments expected during the term of the lease plus the value of the property when the lease
terminates, and the original owner receives the reversionary interest.
Question 1-4
What are title records? What is an abstract of title?
Title records (sometimes referred to as deeds and conveyances records and/or real property records) are created and
maintained usually at the county level. These records identify all properties in a county, including location, present
ownership and any liens or encumbrances affecting each property. These records are critical to investors who want
to identify the owner of specific tracts or land, existing buildings, etc. These records are also important because they
contain evidence of encumbrances such as mortgage liens, tax liens (to be covered in later chapters), etc. Example: a
prospective investor sees a vacant tract of land that he is interested in purchasing. Because there is no signage or any
improvements on the land, how can the land owner be identified and contacted? By going to the county records
office (deeds and conveyancers department) the investor can use the address to locate a property (usually in plat
books), then the current owner. These records are used to link a precise property to its owner. At some point, if this
investor continues to be interested in purchasing the land, he will likely retain an attorney or abstractor to do a title
search and abstract of title. The latter is done to not only identify the current owner but to trace all previous owners
with commentary on the likelihood of other parties who may ownership rights and /or interests in the tract of land.
Question 1-5
What is a deed? How is it different from the title?
The deed is a document usually created by the owner of a property containing the property legal I.D. and location in
addition to any improvements that exist on the property. It also describes the extent to which the seller warrants that
he is the owner of the property and has the right to convey ownership. A deed is used to convey the title from one
person (the grantor) to another (the regrantee) by means of a written instrument. The term “title” is an abstract term
frequently used to link an individual or entity who owns property to the property itself. When a person has “title,” he
is said to have all the elements, including the documents, records, and acts, that prove ownership. Title establishes
the quantity of rights in real estate being conveyed from seller to It differs from title because title provides evidence
of ownership based on the collective records that exist pertaining to a property.
Question 1-6
What is meant by a title record? Why are these records so important?
The title record refers to records on file, usually at the county level, that help to specify tracts of real estate and
determine if a seller has the right to convey ownership of such real property. These records are the most important
sources of events affecting real estate ownership over time and are usually reviewed when trying to identify the
“quality” of title that investors will receive if they purchase. After a review of these records (usually by an attorney),
if in his opinion, they are complete, he will indicate that the seller has ownership and title to the property. Most of
the instruments that affect title to real estate are recorded, in accordance with the recording acts of the various states,
at what is typically called the county recorder’s office.

, Question 1-7
What is a future estate? Give an example?
We think of most real estate transactions as acquiring ownership at the present time. However, ownership can also
occur at a later time, say after the current owner dies. The person who becomes the owner at that time is said to be a
“remainder” estate. Future estates include a reversion and remainder. A reversion results in the state reverting back
to the original possessor whereas the remainder results in a third-party obtaining possession at some point in the
future.
Question 1-8
Name the three general methods of title assurance and briefly describe each. Which would you recommend to a
friend purchasing real estate? Why?
General Warranty Deed - the grantor warrants that the title he/she conveys to the property is free and clear of all
encumbrances, other than those that are specifically listed in the deed.
Special Warranty Deed - makes the same warranties as a general warranty deed except that it limits their application
to defects and encumbrances which occurred only while the grantor held title to the property.
Quitclaim Deed - offers the grantee the least protection in that it imply conveys to the grantee whatever rights,,
interests,, and title that the grantor may have in the property. No warranties are made about the nature of these rights
and interests or of the quality of the grantor’s title to the property.
Would recommend the General Warranty Deed, because it offers the most comprehensive warranties about the
quality of the title.
Question 1-9
Would it be legal for you to give a quitclaim deed for the Statue of Liberty to your friend?
Yes, the quitclaim deed simply says that the grantor “quits” whatever claim he has in the property (which may well
be none) in favor of the grantee.
