Fee simpleIn English law, a fee simple or fee simple absolute is an estate in land, a form of freehold ownership. A "fee" is a vested, inheritable, present possessory interest in land. A "fee simple" is real property held without limit of time (i.e., permanently) under common law, whereas the highest possible form of ownership is a "fee simple absolute," which is without limitations on the land's use (such as qualifiers or conditions that disallow certain uses of the land or subject the vested interest to termination).
Succession ab intestatUne succession ab intestat est une succession qui se produit lorsqu'une personne meurt sans avoir laissé de testament. On dit alors que cette personne est décédée ab intestat (littéralement : « sans avoir testé », « sans testament ») ou intestat (articles 720 et suivants, articles 731 et suivants du Code civil français) et la succession se règle selon les termes prévus par la loi. L'absence de testament peut être également due à la nullité ou à la caducité de ce dernier.
Allodial titleAllodial title constitutes ownership of real property (land, buildings, and fixtures) that is independent of any superior landlord. Allodial title is related to the concept of land held "in allodium", or land ownership by occupancy and defense of the land. Most property ownership in common law jurisdictions is fee simple. In the United States, the land is subject to eminent domain by federal, state and local government, and subject to the imposition of taxes by state and/or local governments, and there is thus no true allodial land.
Quia EmptoresQuia Emptores is a statute passed by the Parliament of England in 1290 during the reign of Edward I that prevented tenants from alienating their lands to others by subinfeudation, instead requiring all tenants who wished to alienate their land to do so by substitution. The statute, along with its companion statute Quo Warranto also passed in 1290, was intended to remedy land ownership disputes and consequent financial difficulties that had resulted from the decline of the traditional feudal system in England during the High Middle Ages.
Unowned propertyUnowned property includes tangible, physical things that are capable of being reduced to being property owned by a person but are not owned by anyone. Bona vacantia (Latin for "ownerless goods") is a legal concept associated with the unowned property, which exists in various jurisdictions, with a consequently varying application, but with origins mostly in English law. Nearly every piece of land on the Earth is a property and has a maintainer (owner).
Activités en immobilierL'activité en immobilier est une expression définissant et incluant toute activité commerciale ou privée ayant trait aux biens immobiliers. Le terme désigne communément les activités de gestion et transaction s'opérant sur ces biens, mais il touche également de nombreuses activités connexes telles que : le logement, la construction, la promotion, le conseil, l'urbanisme, l'architecture, la gérance, etc. Le droit et la finance sont des domaines d'activité indispensables au fonctionnement du marché de l’immobilier.
Feudal land tenure in EnglandUnder the English feudal system several different forms of land tenure existed, each effectively a contract with differing rights and duties attached thereto. Such tenures could be either free-hold, signifying that they were hereditable or perpetual, or non-free where the tenancy terminated on the tenant's death or at an earlier specified period. In England's ancient past large parts of the realm were unoccupied and owned as allodial titles: the landowners simply cooperated with the king out of a mutual interest instead of legal obligation.
Patrimoine (finance)Le patrimoine d'une personne, d'un groupe de personnes (une famille par exemple), d'une organisation (syndicat de copropriété ou société de personnes par exemple) ou administré par une entité fiduciaire (patrimoine d'affectation) est constitué de valeurs mobilières et immobilières. La valeur nette du patrimoine se définit comme étant : une valeur économique d'usage ou de non usage, attribué à l'ensemble des biens matériels ou immatériels le composant ; moins les passifs ; moins les autres engagements financiers hors bilan, comme les responsabilités ou risques potentiels sous condition de leur réalisation.
FeoffmentIn the Middle Ages, especially under the European feudal system, feoffment ˈfɛfmənt or enfeoffment was the deed by which a person was given land in exchange for a pledge of service. This mechanism was later used to avoid restrictions on the passage of title in land by a system in which a landowner would give land to one person for the use of another. The common law of estates in land grew from this concept. The word feoffment derives from the Old French feoffement or fieffement; compare with the Late Latin feoffamentum.
