What Is An Easement In Real Estate?
An easement is defined as the grant of a nonpossessory property interest that grants the easement holder permission to use another person's land. Easement itself is a legal term for a type of property right held by the users of the easement.

Thank you! You are correct.
There are towns where property butts up to a sidewalk that has a grass verge on the other side of it next to the street. If they lived in a place like that, that may be where they picked up their misinformation. Either that or they just like to stir the pot for their own amusement.
