Principles of Real EstateQuestion 4 of 100

An easement appurtenant benefits:

a.A specific individual regardless of land ownership
b.Only the government
c.The dominant tenement, and it transfers with that parcel of land
d.The servient tenement exclusively

Explanation

An easement appurtenant runs with the land and benefits the dominant tenement while burdening the servient tenement. When the dominant parcel is sold, the easement transfers automatically. An easement in gross, by contrast, benefits a person or entity rather than a parcel.
