A rent charge arises when a periodic sum of money is payable in respect of land to a person who has no reversion in it, the due payment of which is a charge upon the land and is secured by a right of distress given by express agreement between the parties. A rent charge in fee simple is an incorporeal hereditament and is real property as it is an interest in the land itself. The owner of a rent charge, however, has no interest in the land out of which it issues. (Anger & Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 924).
