What best describes real property?

Real property consists of land and anything permanently attached to it, plus the bundle of rights that come with ownership. The land itself is real property, and when a building, fixtures (like a built-in appliance, plumbing, or a fence), or other permanent improvements are attached, they become part of real property. The bundle of rights refers to the legal privileges of ownership—possessing, using, enjoying, excluding others, and transferring or encumbering the property. Movable items not attached are personal property, not real property. Real property isn’t limited to land alone; it includes permanent fixtures as well. And while some attached items may be personal property if not permanently affixed, the standard description for real property emphasizes permanent attachments and the rights that accompany ownership.
