Do I own the land below my house all the way to the center of the earth?

I need to know.

Only until something interesting like oil or gold or precious metals are found below and then you'll find that mysteriously the Govt. will own it!!!

No, you're paying rent for it each year. I think that's the property tax.

Depends on the law and statutes governing your property. Remember not to dig straight down from your property lines as those planes get closer the deeper you go and taper to a point at the center. So now you have less volume of dirt, magma, etc. than you thought.

Valid question!

Yes there’s a Latin phrase that translates into the depths of hell to the heights of heaven. There’s exceptions though. Mineral rights can be split off and belong to someone else and aircraft are allowed to fly over.
I don't think so because I asked my mom if we could add a thousand stories onto the house once and she said that's not even legal or something to that effect. So you probably only own so many feet below it and above it.

Yay!! Maybe in your country. I had to look this up!

generally no.
most of the time you don't own the mineral rights - depending on where you live

Lol. I like the way your mind works, good question. You're funny.
I'd how far is yours but if there's oil under it, it is
Like2show · 36-40, M
Dig up some minerals and see what the government says lol
vetguy1991 · 51-55, M
