What is an Access Right in Real Estate?

Owners of all landlocked parcels of real property must have a way into the property. This is an established American real estate legal principle: real property cannot be landlocked.

They must have easements through a neighboring property to provide access to that landlocked property — even if the owner of that neighboring property doesn’t want to provide access easements.
