Understanding the Difference Between Movable and Immovable Property

In the context of property law, "movable" refers to personal property or chattels, as opposed to immovable property such as land or real estate. Movable property is typically portable and can be easily moved from one location to another, such as furniture, appliances, vehicles, and other types of personal belongings.

In contrast, immovable property is attached to the land and cannot be easily moved, such as a house, building, or plot of land. Immovable property is also known as "real property" or "real estate."

Examples of movable property include:

* Furniture
* Appliances
* Vehicles
* Electronics
* Artwork
* Jewelry
* Clothing

Note that the distinction between movable and immovable property can vary depending on the jurisdiction, and some countries may use different terms or have different definitions for these types of property.
