What Is Eminent Domain?

In the simplest terms, eminent domain refers to the power to take over any private property for public use. Federal, state, and local governments are authorized to exercise this right, or they may regulate this power to corporations or private individuals, as long as they provide appropriate compensation to the private property owner.

• Examples of eminent domain include:
• The state needs to expand a public road, but private farmland is in the way of the expansion.
• A corporation needs to expand its business to better accommodate the public’s needs, but a privately-owned bed and breakfast stands in the way.

Appropriate compensation is defined as “the fair market value of the property.” When eminent domain is exercised, a property owner does not have the ability to refuse the fair market offer made by the authorized party; however, you do have the right to challenge whether or not compensation you received is actually fair market value.
