Understanding real estate laws is a challenging task as it has to start with recognizing that real estate intersects all areas of law and government agencies.  For example, common among real estate disputes is defining rights and entitlements between the landowner or landlord, the owner of structures that are permanently attached to the land, or tenants, beneficiaries, life-tenants, squatters, or licensees; in relation to personal property rights or mineral rights.

Intangible property rights or obligations are also some of the most hotly litigated cases, since proper owners have vested interests and emotions in an ocean view interference claim or height restrictions to their structures, enforcing easements, or even contests among home-owners in a homeowners or property owners association, such as a condominium or co-op project.  Indeed, most of these real estate disputes concern one or more of the different types of property listed above.
