What is a Fixture?

A fixture is an item that was once personal property but is now attached to real estate in such a way that it becomes part of the property.   Essentially, it's something that was movable but is now considered part of the house or land.


To determine if something is a fixture, courts often consider the following:

  • Method of attachment: How is the item attached? Is it nailed, screwed, glued, or cemented in place?

  • Adaptation: Does the item fit a specific purpose in the property? For example, a custom-made bookshelf.

  • Intent of the parties: What was the intention when the item was installed? Was it meant to be permanent or temporary?
