Land legally includes all houses and other buildings standing or built on it.
Land law is the form of law that deals with the rights to use, alienate, or exclude others from land.

The study of land law or in the wider sense, property law plays an important role in establishing the right of persons - natural or legal to own, possess, maintain, and transfer the immovable property meaning land, water, building or anything attached to the earth or permanently fastened to anything attached to the land.

Land - Land is an immovable property. Land legally includes all houses and other buildings standing or built on it. Moreover, land includes that part of the property which is in a direct line between the surface and the centre of the earth, such as mines of metals and fossils. In other words, land is defined as a real property. Land itself is a valuable resource, but if it comes with other natural resources, like oil and gas, its value increases. Investing in land for development can be costly and may come with certain risks but can also be a source of profits and appreciation.


Land law - 

Land law is the form of law that deals with the rights to use, alienate, or exclude others from land. In many jurisdictions, these kinds of property are referred to as real estate or real property, as distinct from personal property. Land use agreements, including renting, are an important intersection of property and contract law. Encumbrance on the land rights of one, such as an easement, may constitute the land rights of another. Mineral rights and water rights are closely linked, and often interrelated concepts. According to article 3 of the Bangladesh Land Holding Limitation Order (BLHLO) 1972, a maximum of 100 bighas of land can be kept by a family or body. In this law, 100 bighas means both agriculture and non-agriculture land (article 2(e)).
