What Is an Easement?
An easement is traditionally defined as “a nonpossessory interest in the land of another that allows the holder to use the land for a specific purpose.” Most easement agreements are intended to endure indefinitely—potentially forever—or until the easement itself becomes obsolete, perhaps a century or more later. When drafting an easement, it’s crucial to remember that long after the original parties are gone, future property owners may interpret the agreement differently. Clear, precise language is essential to prevent disputes that could arise decades down the line.
