What Is a Habendum Clause?

Good evening, and welcome to Houston first time home buyers edition. Typically associated with oil and gas leases, a habendum clause defines the extent of ownership or interest that the tenant will have in the property, outlining the rights being transferred and the duration of those rights. The purpose is to eliminate ambiguity by clearly outlining the rights and limitations of the property being conveyed.
