The release of an easement typically requires approval from the property owner who holds the dominant estate (the benefitting property) and may also involve the property owner of the servient estate (the burdened property). Depending on local laws and regulations, the approval process might also require a formal agreement or documentation, and in some cases, it may need to be recorded with the appropriate government authority. In complex situations, such as those involving multiple parties or legal disputes, court approval may also be necessary.

An easement was granted to the power co and now the power station and lines were removed can you build a horse race track with barns on this land that contains the easement?

No. You need to obtain a release of the easement from the utility company before you build anything on the portion that was affected by the power station and lines. The company can always reinstall new equipment within the easement area and demand that you remove any structures you have installed in violation of their easement rights. Try contacting their right of way or easement department to determine if and how you may obtain a release of their rights in your property. In Massachusetts the utility companies charges for researching and releasing an easement that is no longer used can run from $500-$1500. Some companies will not release an easement that is not being used.


Can a property easement be removed from a deed?

You can't have an easement removed from your land. You purchased the land subject to the easement because a prior owner granted another party some sort of rights in your land. The only way to remove the burden of an easement is to obtain a release in writing from the owner of the easement and then record the release in the land records. If the easement is used for access, it cannot be removed. Evidence of an easement can be removed from the deed description for land, however, removing the language from the deed will not affect the easement right. The easement will be disclosed during a title examination. In Massachusetts if the instrument that created the easement appears in the chain of title then it encumbers the property whether or not the easement is recited in subsequent deeds. That is a major reason to have a title examination performed by a professional. The title exam reveals encumbrances that are not recited on the deed and must cover a period of 50 years in. That period varies from state to state.

When an abandoned easement be regarded as terminated?

Generally, a right of easement lasts until the owner of the land benefitted by the easement signs a release and that release is recorded in the land records. Generally, the lack of use does not constitute an abandonment. Easements do not generally terminate unless there is some termination language in the original grant. Some action must be taken to obtain a court order terminating the easement. The owner of the land must file a claim in the appropriate court requesting a court order to clear the land of the easement. The plaintiff must show compelling evidence that the easement has been abandoned, compelling enough for the court to extinguish the easement rights. That evidence would include a full title examination to show the history of the easement, evidence to show the owner of the easement was contacted and refused to release the easement and evidence the easement is no longer used and no longer needed. This is a difficult case to bring to court. It should be handled by an attorney who specializes in real estate law and who has experience in this type of litigation. You should consult with an attorney in your area who can review your situation, examine the titles to the properties and determine what your options are. If the owner of the easement is a utility company, some companies will release the easement for a fee that covers the company's research into its own records. The attorney may be able to contact the owner of the easement and negotiate a release without going to court. Requests from an attorney are more effective than a request from an individual.


If a utility easement is no longer in use how do you get a release from the utility company?

You need to contact the easement department of the utility company that owns the easement and ask for a release. The utility must research the easement in their records which is sometimes a very complicated process. They may require a fee for the research and release. That fee can run in the hundreds of dollars. On the other hand they may refuse to release it at all even if it is not in use. Once they have property rights some utility companies don't let them go.

Can you purchase an easement in the rear of your home?

Not likely, the easement is there because of something that the utility company has in place there. It also provides the ability to run utility lines from one place to another including your neighbors' homes. If the easement isn't being used by the utility company they may release it for a fee. In the case of very old easement rights in Massachusetts there are liaisons at the utility companies who can research an old easment for you and they will release it if it is not needed, no longer used or if it was never used. There is a fee of at least several hundred dollars.

What is a private nonexclusive easement?

An "easement" is a legal right to use the property owned by another person (i.e. the person who granted the easement). An easement is usually created by a recorded document, whether a deed or an easement agreement. The purpose of the easement (for example, a driveway or a walking path) is whatever permitted use is stated in the easement document. The fact that the easement is "perpetual" means that the easement has no term and will continue indefinitely. An easement that is "non-exclusive" simply is an easement that someone else may also use. This might mean the person who granted the easement or whoever else may be identified in the easement document. The easement document should state who else may use the easement. A perpetual easement usually "runs with the land", meaning that the easement continues in effect regardless of whether the property benefited by the easement is sold or if the property burdened by the easement is sold.
