What is the definition of "real property"?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Real property refers to land and anything permanently attached to it, including buildings, structures, and fixed machinery or equipment. This includes:

Land -- Natural terrain, lots, plots.

Buildings -- Homes, commercial offices, industrial spaces.

Fixed Equipment -- Machinery installed as part of the property (e.g., HVAC systems, elevators).

In contrast, personal property (Option A & D) includes movable items like furniture and appliances, while undeveloped land (Option B) does not account for infrastructure.

Hmm, D) Inventory and loose materials? Sounds like they're just trying to trick us with that one. Nice try, test makers!

I thought real property was all about that natural, organic vibe. Guess B) was just a bit too hippie-dippy for this question.
