A detailed description of Reverter, a legal concept specific to fee simple determinable estates.
An Income Beneficiary is the beneficiary of a trust or estate who is entitled to receive income generated from the property rather than the principal or corpus.
A Life Beneficiary is an individual entitled to the use or income from property for their lifetime, often found in the context of trusts and estates. They receive benefits until their death, after which the property typically passes to a remainder person.
A remainder is a future interest in an estate in land, which becomes possessory upon the termination of the preceding estate, such as a life estate or a term of years, without reverting to the original grantor or their heirs.
Reversion refers to the interest that remains with a property owner who has granted an estate less than their own full interest. This interest allows them to regain the property at some point in the future.
