Covenant (law) - Covenants Related To Land

Covenants Related To Land

Each covenant has two sides: the burden and the benefit. The burden is the promissor's duty to perform the promise and the benefit is the promisee's right to enforce the promise.

These covenants "run with the land" which means that subsequent owners or successors may either be able to enforce the covenant or be burdened by it.

Famous quotes containing the words covenants, related and/or land:

    Love prays. It makes covenants with Eternal Power in behalf of this dear mate.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Perhaps it is nothingness which is real and our dream which is non-existent, but then we feel think that these musical phrases, and the notions related to the dream, are nothing too. We will die, but our hostages are the divine captives who will follow our chance. And death with them is somewhat less bitter, less inglorious, perhaps less probable.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    Stretch out your hand toward heaven so that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, a darkness that can be felt.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 10:21.
