Immobilie
English law has retained the common law distinction between real property and personal property, whereas the civil law distinguishes between "movable" and "immovable" property. In English law, real property is not confined to the ownership of property and the buildings sited thereonoften referred to as "land". Real property also includes many legal relationships between individuals or owners of land that are purely conceptual. One such relationship is the easement, where the owner of one property has the right to pass over a neighbouring property. Another is the various "incorporeal hereditaments", such as "profits-à-prendre", where an individual may have the right to take crops from land that is part of another's estate.
