Property Law
Immovable Property
Property that cannot be moved from one place to another, such as land and anything permanently attached to it, like buildings and trees.
The distinction between immovable and movable property matters significantly in law — immovable property transfers generally require a written, registered document, while movable property can often be transferred by mere delivery, without such formalities.
Fixtures permanently attached to land or buildings are typically treated as part of the immovable property itself, unless the parties agree otherwise.
