The 'bundle of rights' in real property ownership includes which set?
Correct Answer
A) Possession, control, enjoyment, exclusion and disposition
Why this is correct: Fee simple ownership is conceptualized as a 'bundle of rights' including the rights to possess, control, enjoy, exclude others, and dispose of (sell, lease, etc.) the property. Why the other choices are wrong: 'Only possession and the right to sell' is wrong; it omits other key rights. 'Mineral rights and air rights exclusively' is wrong; these are specific subsets, not the full bundle. 'Whatever set of rights the local zoning code chooses to grant' is wrong; zoning regulates use but does not grant the fundamental ownership rights. Exam tip: Value is tied to which 'sticks' are held or separated from the bundle.
