Owning a home means more than holding a key. Think of ownership as a bundle of rights. Possession: occupy the property. Control: decide how to use it within legal limits. Enjoyment: use its benefits. Exclusion: keep others out, subject to their legal rights. Disposition: transfer your interest. Now watch one right separate from the bundle. A lease can give a tenant possession for a period, while the landlord retains ownership. An easement can grant a limited use right. The rights are not unlimited. Laws, valid restrictions, and other people's interests still matter. Quick check: does granting a driveway easement automatically transfer ownership of the entire parcel? No. A limited use right can be granted separately.
