Usufruct See file

The usufruct of an inherited asset is the right that a person has to enjoy said asset that has been inherited, without being the owner of it. The person who enjoys the asset is called the usufructuary and has the right to use and enjoy the inherited asset, but does not have the right to sell it, rent it or dispose of it in any other way....
In legal terms, the usufruct is a real right that is granted to a person to use and enjoy a good, either movable or immovable, which belongs to someone else. In the case of a good inherited, the usufruct can be granted by the testator in his will or it can be established by law in case a specific beneficial owner has not been designated. It is important to note that the usufruct has a limited time and it can be established for a specific period of time or until a condition established in the will or in the law is fulfilled. At the end of the established period, the inherited property returns to be the property of the original owner or their legal heirs.
