A form of a license, typically for a short term, that allows a very limited specific access to real property. Access agreements are typically granted for real property investigations or construction activities.
Draft Agreement
An agreement that is not in its final form, which is ready for discussion or editing by the parties.
Easement
An easement, like a license, gives the permission of the owner to use or prevent the use of the owner’s real property. However, unlike a license, it transfers to the easement holder an interest in the real property that encumber the record title. Easements are classified as either appurtenant ( any right or restriction which goes with the property ) or in gross ( any right or restriction which attaches to an individual or entity ). Unless otherwise specified, an easement is presumed to be permanent and non-exclusive.
Fully Executed
A contract has been fully executed when all parties have signed the agreement.
Lease
A rental agreement for continuous exclusive control of real property, usually for a specific term and, in exchange, then tenant agrees to give the landlord some sort of consideration. A lease transfers to the tenant a leasehold interest in real property and, unless otherwise provided in the lease, is typically irrevocable.
Long Term
A continuous period of time lasting more than 90 days.
License
