Real estate law is the umbrella law for anything to do with land and man-made attachments to it, such as houses, garages, outbuildings, etc. It covers who has the rights to own and use the property, such as homeowners, renters, buyers, sellers, realtors and landlords. Commercial and residential areas both fall under this category. Real estate law is a way of protecting buyers and sellers in real estate transactions, contracts and recording of sales, etc. It deals with covenants and associations involved with real estate as well as condominium law.
