Which of the following is NOT a method through which easements can be created?

Endorsement is not a recognized method for creating easements in property law. Easements can be established through various means, including mutual agreement, necessity, and prescription.

When easements are created by mutual agreement, two or more parties come to a consensus regarding the use of land, and this is often formalized in a written agreement. This is a common and straightforward method of creating easements, reflecting the wishes of the property owners involved.

Easements by necessity arise when a property owner requires access to their land that is otherwise landlocked, establishing an easement over another property to ensure the owner can access their property. This method is based on the principle that the easement is essential for the beneficial use of the property.

Easements by prescription occur when a person uses another's land without permission for a certain period, after which they may gain a legal right to continue using that land as an easement, provided specific legal criteria are met concerning the nature of the use.

In contrast, endorsement lacks a foundation in the legal framework governing the creation of easements, making it the only option not traditionally recognized in the context of easement creation.
