Many laws that affect real estate are associated with rights of ownership. Having ownership of a property typically gives the owner the right to sell or mortgage the property, to bequeath the property, and to build on the property. Property owners are usually given a deed or title to the property to enable them to prove and document ownership. In most countries, deeds are recorded and records are kept indefinitely. These records typically show a complete history of ownership for any given property.

Other real estate laws are designed to protect both tenants and property owners who are involved in a tenancy agreement. Most of the time, a written contract is required to outline the conditions of the lease. In most cases, lease agreements should indicate a beginning and ending date, and any stipulations regarding maintenance of the property. Other tenancy laws outline the steps that must be taken to evict a non-paying tenant, or a tenant who is in violation of a rental agreement.
