If you are searching for the meaning of Easement in real estate and also a definition of Easement, then this blog post is helpful for you
Definition
A right to use another person’s real estate for a specific purpose. The most common type of
easement is the right to travel over another person’s land, known as a right of way. In addition,
property owners commonly grant easements for the placement of utility poles, utility trenches,
water lines or sewer lines. The owner of the property that is subject to an easement is said to be
“burdened” with the easement because he or she is not allowed to interfere with its use. For
example, if the deed to John’s property permits Sue to travel across John’s main road to reach her
own home, John cannot do anything to block the road. On the other hand, Sue cannot do anything
that exceeds the scope of her easement, such as widening the roadway.
