2  Promise which is enforceable not only between the original parties, but also between successors of either party because they are now the new owners of the land.  The future owners are bound even though they did not agree.

3 1. Assignment of contract rights 2. Affirmative easements 3. Negative easements 4. Conditions

4 1. Enforceable promises under contract law

5 2. Intent for Promise to Run with the Land  Common law – “assigns”  Modern law – special terminology not needed

6 3. “Touch and Concern” land requirement  Connection between promise and land ▪ Burden touches land (impacts land, not landowner personally) ▪ Benefit touches land (makes land more valuable, not landowner personally)

7 3. “Touch and Concern” land requirement  How satisfy? ▪ Both benefit and burden (common law) ▪ Just burden ▪ Just benefit

8 4. Privity of estate  Mutual Privity ▪ Original parties had mutual interest in same land ▪ Example = landlord-tenant ▪ Modern law does not require mutual privity

9 4. Privity of estate  Horizontal Privity ▪ Land-based relationship between original parties ▪ Examples = landlord-tenant, buyer-seller, grantor- grantee ▪ Modern law = Often does not require horizontal privity thus allowing neighbors to enter into real covenants.

10 4. Privity of estate  Vertical Privity ▪ New owner of burdened or benefited property must obtain property from prior person who was burdened or benefited.
