Personal property is generally considered property that is movable, as opposed to real property or real estate.

In common law systems, personal property may also be called chattels or personalty.

In civil law systems, personal property is often called movable property or movables – any property that can be moved from one location to another.

This term is in distinction with immovable property or immovables, such as land and buildings.

Movable property on land, for example, larger livestock, was not automatically sold with the land.

In contrast, wildlife and smaller livestock like chickens were often sold as part of the land.

In fact the word cattle is the Old Norman variant of Old French chatel (derived from Latin capitalis, “of the head”), which was once synonymous with general movable personal property.

Travis County is a county located in south central Texas.

In English common law, real property, real estate, realty, or immovable property is land which is the property of some person and all structures (also called improvements or fixtures) integrated with or affixed to the land, including crops, buildings, machinery, wells, dams, ponds, mines, canals, and roads, among other things.

The term is historic, arising from the now-discontinued form of action, which distinguished between real property disputes and personal property disputes.

Personal property was, and continues to be, all property that is not real property.

Real estate appraisal, property valuation or land valuation is the process of developing an opinion of value for real property (usually market value).

Real estate transactions often require appraisals because they occur infrequently and every property is unique (especially their condition, a key factor in valuation), unlike corporate stocks, which are traded daily and are identical (thus a centralized Walrasian auction like a stock exchange is unrealistic).

Location also plays a key role in valuation.

However, since property cannot change location, it is often the upgrades or improvements to the home that can change its value.

Appraisal reports form the basis for mortgage loans, settling estates and divorces, taxation, and so on.

Sometimes an appraisal report is used to establish a sale price for a property.

The Central United States is sometimes conceived as between the Eastern United States and Western United States as part of a three-region model, roughly coincident with the U.S. Census' definition of the Midwestern United States plus the western and central portions of the U.S. Census' definition of the Southern United States.
