A license gives the permission of the owner to an individual or an entity to use real property for a specific purpose. A license is not an interest in land, but is a privilege to do something on the land of another person. Generally, a license in respect of real property (since it is a mere personal privilege), cannot be assigned or transferred by the licensee. A license does not pass with the title to the property, but is only binding between the parties, expiring upon the death of either party. This form is an example of such.
