!!!Grundbesitz
Real property or land possession (in Austrian law: Grundbesitz),
tenure of land with the intention to keep all possessory rights. In

often used to describe "Grundeigentum", i.e. land ownership (
Property, Land Register). Apart from the right of ownership, other
possible interests in land include Servitude, encumbrances, right of

under special land conveyance laws, stating that all legal
transactions in agricultural and forest lands have to be authorised by
the "Grundverkehrskommission" (land conveyance commission, a
collegiate provincial authority). The acquisition of land by
foreigners is also subject to the same authorisation. The possession
of land in Austria is subject to Real Property Tax, the acquisition
of land to Land Acquisition Tax.
