An easement in gross

  1. is transferable

  2. does not run with the land

  3. pertains only to residential property

  4. expires upon the death of the grantor

The correct answer is: does not run with the land

An easement in gross is a right that allows someone to use another person's land for a specific purpose. This type of easement is not attached to a specific piece of land and therefore does not "run with the land" as choice B states. This means that the easement does not automatically transfer to a new landowner once the property is sold. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because an easement in gross is indeed transferable, can pertain to any type of property, and does not expire upon the death of the grantor.
