Personal property is a type of property that includes any movable object or intangible asset of value that can be owned by a person and is distinct from real property. Examples include vehicles, artworks, and patents. Under common law, it is synonymous with chattel or personalty.
Examples of tangible personal property include vehicles, furniture, boats, and collectibles. Digital assets, patents, and intellectual property are intangible personal property. Just as some loans—mortgages, for example—are secured by real property like a house, some loans are secured by personal property.
Personal property taxes are deductible when they are based on the value of personal property, such as a boat or car. To be deductible, the tax must be charged to you on a yearly basis, even if it is collected more than once a year or less than once a year.
