Land

Definition: In real estate study, land includes the earth's surface and natural attachments, together with associated subsurface and airspace interests.

Example

A parcel includes its soil and naturally growing trees; mineral and air rights may also be involved.

Keep the distinction clear

Ownership is subject to law and any separately conveyed rights. The classroom description extending upward and downward does not give unlimited control of airspace or resources.
