  • What happens to property when the owner dies?
  • What happens to property when the owner is incapacitated?
  • What happens to abandoned property?
  • What happens when co-owners have a dispute?
  • How does a property owner transfer ownership to someone else?
  • How does a property owner transfer possession to someone else?
  • How does a property owner regain possession? Is self-help permitted?
