Content: Ownership and use of property is an area of law that impacts everyone in society. Property law is also an important part of estate law, family law and municipal law. What is the difference between real property and personal property? There are two kinds of property: real property and personal property. Real property is land. It can also include things that are attached to the land like a house, commercial buildings, a garage or barn and even trees. Real property is land and the things that go along with land. By contrast, personal property is something that you possess or own that can move. A car is an example of personal property.
