1. Land. Such things as are permanent, fixed, and immovable, lands, tenements, and hereditaments of all kinds, which are not annexed to the person or cannot be moved from the place in which they subsist. 42 Am J1st Pr0p § 13.
In a strictly technical sense, such an interest as one has in land; a right, interest, or ownership, existing in the soil, and consisting of an estate in fee or for life. Callihan v Martin, 3 Cal 2d 110, 43 P2d 788,101 ALR 871. ‘
The term has been frequently defined by statute to be coextensive with lands, tenements, and hereditaments, and covers all that goes to make up the earth in its natural condition, including petroleum as found in its natural state, unmined coal, sand or gravel in its original bed, subterraneous water not flowing in a definite course, but percolating through the earth, a room in a house, a toll bridge over a navigable river, and the tolls authorized by law, and mining claims. 42 Am J1st Prop.

“Real estate – or, to use the more formal term, real property – means primarily land, and everything which is naturally a part of the land, or is more or less permanently added to it. Trees, mineral deposits, gas and oil wells are all classed as real property so long as they remain a part of the land, but if the trees are cut down or the minerals extracted they cease to be real property and become personalty. Buildings and improvements of all kinds, which are permanent additions to the land upon which they stand, are a part of the real estate.” [2]
immovable property – land, and objects so firmly attached that they are regarded as part of the land.
common property – real property held by two or more persons with no right of survivorship.
