Easements

Easements are like a special kind of agreement that lets someone else use your property for a specific purpose. For example, let's say you own a big field. Someone else might have an agreement with you, called an easement, that lets them ride horses through your field. That way they don't need to build their own field and they can use yours as long as they follow the rules in the agreement. The agreement might say how often they can ride, or if they have to fix the fence or clean up after their horses.
