Investopedia explains 'Easement'
An important factor to consider with easements is how they affect the value of the property. For example, an unsightly power line on your property can lower the visual appeal and, consequently, the money you receive if you sell. In many cases, a real estate lawyer should be consulted to determine the effects of the easement on your property.
