Humber/Ontario Real Estate Course 1 Exam Practice

The correct answer is D. Easement in gross. An easement in gross is a type of easement where a property owner consents to allow a specific use of their land to another party. In this type of easement, the benefit is personal to the holder of the easement and is not tied to any specific neighboring property. This means that the easement does not transfer with the property if it is sold, unlike an appurtenant easement where it is tied to the property itself. Options A and B, easement by necessity and easement by prescription, refer to different types of easements that are established under specific circumstances, not by the property owner's consent. Option C, appurtenant easement, is an easement that benefits a specific neighboring property, unlike easement in gross which is personal to the holder. Options E and F, perpetual easement and temporary easement, refer to the duration of the easement rather than how it is established.
