The Journal of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers notes that initial property rights in the United States arose from royal charters, occupation, or purchases from Native peoples. Lands were large, title often vested in inhabitants or the king, and later divisions by proprietors or town meetings led to varied methods, including by taxpayer shares or survey committees.
