What is a servient tenement in real estate?

  1. A property losing a benefit

  2. A property gaining a benefit

  3. A property giving up a benefit

  4. An interest created by a landlord and tenant

The correct answer is: A property giving up a benefit

A servient tenement in real estate refers to a property that is burdened by an easement, meaning it must give up certain rights or privileges to the dominant tenement (the property benefiting from the easement). This is why options A and B are incorrect, because they do not refer to a property burdened by an easement. Option D is incorrect because it refers to a relationship between a landlord and tenant, rather than a specific type of property.
