Property I

Fee Simple

A fee simple estate is the most common type. It allows the owner of the estate to keep the land forever or to devise it to someone else to keep forever. A fee simple will not end naturally.

The words "and his heirs" in a conveyance are the words of limitation that create a fee simple.

While a fee simple allows the grantee's heirs to inherit the estate, no legally recognizable interest is granted to them.
