How to use property in English?

 Property can be used in many ways in English. Here's a breakdown of its common uses:

  • Real estate/land: This is the most common usage.
    • "She bought a new property in the suburbs."
    • "The property includes a house, a garage, and a garden."
    • "They are looking to invest in rental properties."
  • Possessions/belongings:
    • "The thief stole my personal property."
    • "The hotel is not responsible for the loss of guests' property."
    • "This land is private property."
  • Characteristic/quality:
    • "Honesty is a valuable property." (meaning a desirable quality)
    • "The properties of this metal make it suitable for construction." (meaning physical or chemical characteristics)

As an Adjective:

  • Owned:
    • "This is property of the government."

In Legal Terms:

  • Real property: Land and anything permanently attached to it (buildings, fixtures).
  • Personal property: Moveable possessions (cars, furniture, jewelry).

I hope this helps! Let me know if you'd like more examples or have any other questions.
