Term Definition
Remainder

A right to future enjoyment or ownership of real property; the "left-over" after property has been conveyed first to another party. A remainder interest is what is left over after a life estate has run its course. Contrary to a reversion (which see), a remainder does not go to the grantor or his (or her) heirs.
