Before his estate can be distributed according to his will or the related law, he has to settle all of his debts or liabilities like taxes, loans and others. So, he still has to settle his debts even with a will. Without a will, the distribution of his estate will take a longer time than the time he takes when he has a will.
Real property refers to anything that is permanently attached to a land such as buildings, houses, shoplots and so on (including lands). These items can't be moved.
Anything that is not real property is called personal property. Personal property can be either tangible or intangible.
