Question: 1 / 400

Which estate benefits from an easement?

Servient estate

Dominant estate

An easement is a legal right to use someone else's land for a specific purpose. The dominant estate is the property that benefits from the easement, usually by gaining access to or using the land of the servient estate for a specific purpose.

Option A, the servient estate, is incorrect because it is the property that is burdened or encumbered by the easement. Option C, both estates equally, is incorrect because the dominant estate receives the primary benefit of the easement. Option D, neither estate, is incorrect because, in the case of an easement, one estate will always benefit while the other will be encumbered.
