The only entities that really own land anywhere are states. If you "own" real estate in the U.S. and don't pay your rent property taxes, the actual owner the state evicts you can confiscate your land for a tax sale.

In that case in other places, if I own the property I can leave it in trust or in a will to other people when I die, genuinely curious because I don't know... Is that possible with how China does things?
