Are recreational vehicles considered real property?

• A. Yes
• B. No
• C. Only when attached to land
• D. Only if licensed as a dwelling

Answer: (B)

Real property consists of land and anything permanently attached to it, while personal property covers moveable items not permanently attached. A recreational vehicle is designed to be moveable and is not typically fixed to land in a way that would make it a fixture. Because of that, it generally remains personal property. It would only become real property if it were permanently affixed and intended to be part of the land (a true fixture), not simply because it’s on the property or licensed as a dwelling. So recreational vehicles are not real property in the usual sense.
