German term

als Eigentumsform

German to English Law/Patents Real Estate
I am translating a text that is talking about the differences between property ownership, i.e. mortgages, leasehold and freehold properties etc in the UK and in Germany. The sentence is as follows: den einzelnen Personen stehen demgemaess als "Eigentumsform" nur Besitzrechte zu"

Any ideas?
Proposed translations (English)
4 +2 form/type of ownership
5 form of title
2 form of ownership

Steffen Walter Jan 5, 2011:
Right, Phil... ... I had overlooked this detail.
philgoddard Jan 5, 2011:
We also need some context - what comes before and after this sentence, asker?
I don't think it's necessarily a contradiction in terms, Steffen - "Eigentumsform" is in quotation marks.
Steffen Walter Jan 5, 2011:
Contradiction in terms The German sentence contains a contradiction in terms: "Eigentum" and "Besitz" are fundamentally different from a legal point of view, which is why "Besitz" (possession) can never be a type/kind of "Eigentum" (ownership).

form of title

Whilst Eigentum means ownership in common parlance, it is being used here in a strictly legal sense so it refers to the kinds of "title" to property - some of these may not imply full ownership
