LAND LAW TUTOR
WHAT IS LAND LAW?
In a market-based society, land must be freely tradable, but there must also be security for those who own it and those who have lesser rights in it, such as a right to walk across it. Many land law problems will involve not just two but three sets of competing interests: those of a buyer of the land, a seller of the land, and a third party who has some lesser interest in the land (e.g. a right to live there for life, or a loan secured against it).
