Real estate law, or property law, generally refers to the laws controlling the ownership or use of land. It is a branch of civil law that covers the right to possess, use, and enjoy land and the permanent man-made additions attached to it. Real estate law directly or indirectly impacts most of us on a daily basis, affecting homeowners, renters, landlords, home buyers, and home sellers. Therefore, it is closely tied to other areas of law. For example, Contract Law governs the sale of real estate and requires that such contracts be in writing.
