Lorsqu'il s'emploie seul, l'équivalent [acte formaliste] ne s'abrège pas, l'adjectif «formaliste» étant essentiel à la compréhension de la notion. L'équivalent «acte scellé» a été écarté du fait de certaines réformes législatives récentes dans les pays de common law, qui ont supprimé la formalité du sceau pour les «deeds». En outre, l'apposition du sceau ne représente que l'une des formalités qui entourent la passation d'un «deed», la délivrance en étant une autre. Il convient de noter, par ailleurs, que le terme «deed» s'emploie aux États-Unis au sens de tout acte translatif visant un bien réel, formaliste ou non.

The word, heirs, is necessary in the grant or donation in order to make a fee, or inheritance. For if land be given to a man for ever, or to him and his assigns for ever, this vests in him but an estate for life.... [This rule] does not extend to devises by will; in which, as they were introduced at the time when the feodal rigor was apace wearing out, a more liberal construction is allowed : and therefore by a devise to a man for ever, or to one and his assigns for ever, or to one in fee-simple, the devisee hath an estate of inheritance; for the intention of the devisor is sufficiently plain from the words of perpetuity annexed, though be hath omitted the legal words of inheritance. But if the devise be to a man and his assigns, without annexing words of perpetuity, there the devisee shall take only an estate for life; for it does not appear the devisor intended any more....(Blackstone, Book II, p. 107-108)

By happy contrast, dealing fully with words of grant requires less than a page. There are but three points worth mentioning. First, what verb should be used in a conveyance to pass an estate or interest in land? The answer is : any verb you like. Section 51(2) of the "Law of Property Act" 1925 provides that :’The use of the word grant is not necessary to convey land or to create any interest therein. ’Thus any appropriate word may be used, such as the customary "conveys" in a conveyance or, for example, "assents" in an assent.(Farrand, 3rd ed., 1980, pp. 272-273).

There are certain cases in which there is said to be a tenancy by estoppel. If a person with no estate in land purports to grant a tenancy of the land, the grant can pass no actual estate. Yet, even though the lessor's want of title is apparent to the parties, both the parties and their successors in title will be estopped from denying that the grant was effective to create the tenancy that it purported to create(Megarry and Wade, p. 646).

When a person has an interest in lands, and grants a portion of that interest, the possession of the lands, on the determination of the interest granted, returns or reverts to the grantor. This interest is what is called the grantor’s reversion, or, more propertly, his right of reverter. (Jowitt, p. 1575)

OBS

In feudal times, on every grant of land, a right remained in the grantor to the services of the grantee during the continuance of his estate, and to a return of the land on its expiration. Whether this right of the grantor depended on an estate for life or in fee, it was of the same nature and was called his reverter or escheat;(Jowitt's, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 1577).

While there is difference of opinion as to what constitutes privity of estate in relationships outside of that of landlord and tenant, the weight of authority is to the effect that there is privity of estate when the fact of succession is found to have taken place between covenantor and covenantee, as in a grant of an estate in land made by one of the parties to the other. The modern rule seems to be that either mutuality or succession of interrelationship to the same rights of property creates that privity of estate necessary to enable a covenant to run with the land.(Cartwright, 1972, p. 729).

[Natural right of property] is an expression often used to describe a right that is one of the ordinary and inseparable incidents of ownership, though its exercise requires an adjacent owner to forbear from doing something on his own land that otherwise he would be free to do.

Statutes of Limitation are generally regarded as a means of protecting the defendant against a stale or unjust claim. Except in actions chiefly concerned with real property, in which, by the judicial interpretation of the limitation provisions applicable thereto, it has been held that the lapse of the statutory period operates to extinguish the right, "The Limitations Act" operates merely as a bar to the remedy by proceedings in the courts. Except where the statute by its terms absolutely extinguishes the debt or demand itself, the general rule with respect to debts, or more money demands is that statutes of limitation are regarded as barring the remedy, and not as extinguishing the cause of action.

A title searcher has basically two separate chores to perform-to follow the history of conveyances of the lot(or of the tract or tracts of land from which the lot forms a part), beginning at the present and "going back" through time, tracing a chain of ownership or title until he reaches the original Grant from the Crown or until he thinks he has gone back a sufficient number of years to establish the chain of title as a valid one.(Howlett, 1986, p. 4).

... a right which arose at common law upon the grant of arable land prior to the "Statute of Quia Emptores".

OBS

Before the passing of this statute, when a lord of the manor enfeoffed a person of some parcels of arable land the feoffee thereby became entitled to certain ancillary rights with respect to other land in the manor; after the statute was passed these rights no longer arose upon a grant of the land. Consequently all profits à prendre appendant must have come into existence prior to 1290. Profits à prendre appendant are therefore said to be "of common right".(Halsbury, 4th ed., Vol. 14, p. 118).

OBS

[This right] has no application to Canadian law as all profits à prendre appendant must have come into existence prior to 1290. (Anger & Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 974).

Common of pasture in gross is so called "for that it appertaineth to no land, and must be by writing or prescription". It is neither appendant nor appurtenant to land, but is a separate inheritance, entirely distinct from any landed property, and may be vested in one who has not a foot of land in the manor. It may commence at this day by grant or be acquired by prescription.(Halsbury, 3rd ed., 1962, Vol. 5, p. 309)

Common of pasture appurtenant is a right annexed to certain lands, by virtue of which the owner of those lands feeds cattle on the soil of another person; it differs from the right of common appendant in all the characteristics which arise from the connection of the latter with the socage tenure of ancient arable land in a manor; it may, therefore, be held by holders of estates formerly copyhold or by strangers to a manor, and may arise by grant or prescription since "Quia Emptores", 1289, and is not necessarily confined to such beasts as are generally commonable but may extend to swine, goats or geese.(Jowitt's, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 387)

A contract for a lease is an agreement enforceable in law whereby one party agrees to grant and another to take a lease. The expressions "contract for lease" and "agreement for lease" are usually interchangeable, but "contract for lease" is to be preferred as being more definite, agreement frequently meaning one of many stipulations in a contract. A contract for a lease is to be distinguished from a lease, because a lease is actually a conveyance of an estate in land, whereas a contract for a lease is merely an agreement that such a conveyance shall be entered into at a future date.(Woodfall, 27th, p. 132)

Prior to("Quia Emptores") the number of subtenures had greatly increased by the process of subinfeudation. By this process a tenant, instead of alienating his land outright for a capital sum, created a new tenurial relationship between himself and another whereby the other person became his tenant of the land in return for a perpetual grant or service. The new tenant might create a further subtenure and in theory the process could go on "ad infinitum". "Quia Emptores" accomplished two important objectives. In the first place it abolished alienation by subinfeudation and secondly, it endorsed the principle of alienation by substitution.(Anger & Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 23)

The purchase of areas of land with no intention of developing them, but instead in the hope of selling them at a later date for a large profit.

CONT

Land grant acts passed in North Carolina created a booming market in Tennessee land before actual settlers had ever arrived. Land speculation was based upon cheaply amassing large amounts of western land, or claims to it, in hopes that increased immigration would raise the price of these lands. Most of Tennessee's early political leaders... were involved in land speculation, making it difficult sometimes to tell where public responsibility left off and private business began.

Land speculation tends to increase in areas where widespread development is taking place.

CONT

À la fin des années 1980, la spéculation foncière est à son comble au Japon. Les prix des terrains connaissent une hausse extraordinaire, surtout aux abords des grandes agglomérations. Un exemple frappant : en 1988, en théorie, «si l'on vendait tous les terrains de Tôkyô, on pourrait acheter tout le territoire des États-Unis!».

CONT

[...] dans le système de l'économie de marché, aujourd'hui devenu mondial, le phénomène de la spéculation foncière constitue le principal obstacle pour toute volonté d'aménagement de l'espace. Le jeu plus ou moins faussé de l'offre et de la demande, aboutit à cette contradiction peu ou prou exacerbée mais demeurant à ce jour insurmontable, qu'un lieu rendu agréable et attractif par un aménagement voit immédiatement ses prix augmenter, rendant ainsi à la fois indispensables et plus difficiles les aménagements publics pour tenter de maintenir sur place les plus démunis. À l'inverse, toute portion du territoire tenue artificiellement à l'écart des dynamiques de spéculation, devient à la longue un lieu déprécié et répulsif où seuls de lourds investissements publics permettent, en tout cas pour un temps, de préserver une certaine qualité de la vie. C'est cette dynamique latente de spéculation foncière qui conduit irrémédiablement la ville différentielle, à la ville clivée, puis à la ville ségrégée.
