Abstract:
A preservation easement is a legal agreement between a property owner and a preservation organization in which the property owner agrees to preserve the historic features of the property. The preservation organization is granted the right to enforce the covenants of the easement and to monitor the property. Pearson discusses how an easement works; what properties are eligible for easements; and tax advantages of an easement.
