The property summary includes:
- the propertys address - the address held by Royal Mail
- the property description
- the tenure type - the type of ownership the property has
- whether there are any restrictive covenants - promises to not do certain things with the land, like not building on a particular area
- whether there are any easements - the rights of one piece of land over another, like a right of way
