Usufruct

What is usufruct?

The usufruct is a right that allows the use and benefit of something that belongs to another person, without altering its form or its substance.

For example, if you have the usufruct of a house, you can live in it or rent it, but you cannot sell or destroy it.

The usufruct can have different origins, such as a will, a donation, a law or a contract. It can also fall on different types of assets, such as furniture, real estate, rights or shares.
