ownership rights
Legal possession claims
Ownership rights are the legal entitlements that come with owning property—the authority to use, modify, sell, lease, or destroy what you own.
These rights vary by jurisdiction and type of property: The ownership rights to intellectual property differ from those to real estate.
Ownership rights can be partial or shared, as with joint ownership or when easements limit what a landowner may do.
