About Private Property

Private property is property that is owned by an individual or group, rather than by the government. Private property includes land, buildings, and other possessions, and is protected by law. In some cases, the government may use eminent domain to take private property for public use, but this must be done in accordance with the law and with just compensation to the property owner.
