Property law is the area of law which governs various kinds of ownership and tenancy in real estate property, within the common law legal system. In the civil law system, there is a distinction between movable and immovable property. Movable property corresponds to personal property, while immovable property corresponds to real estate or real property, and the related rights and obligations thereon.
