This article discusses how the deeding of land parcels in Estates and Private Regions works with groups.
 
 
==Can I deed land on my Estate to a group?==
 
 
If you are the Region owner, or the [[Linden Lab Official:Estate and Private Region Covenants|covenant]] on the Estate allows you to resell your parcel, you can, provided the Region is not an Openspace. However, this process is handled slightly differently than on the [[How do I deed land to a group|mainland]].
 
 
* Preferably, the group you select should not own any land on the mainland. Since Estate land and land on the mainland are handled differently, a group that owns both can be complicated greatly. This may also cause your group to lose certain features (such as traffic reporting) that are calculated differently for Estates versus the mainland.
* The Estate owner is the only person responsible for paying Linden Lab for land in an Estate; it doesn't fall under any of the normal mainland rules for land use fees (tiers, group land contributions, etc). Thus, you should ''not'' select the '''Owner Makes Contribution With Deed''' checkbox, as the Estate land requires no tier contribution.
* If the '''Allow Land Resell''' checkbox is unchecked in the '''Region''' tab of the Region/Estate window, then you can't deed that land to a group, as the system considers it to be a change of ownership.
 
 
The proper steps to follow to deed Estate land to a group are:
 
 
# Select '''World > About Land''' to open the About Land window.
# Select the group you want to deed to. As always, you must be have the ability to deed land to this group.
# Select the '''Allow Deed to Group''' checkbox.
# Click the '''Deed''' button.
 
 
{{KBcaution| '''Caution:''' The '''Owner Makes Contribution With Deed''' checkbox should ''not'' be selected!
}}
 
 
==What can group members/officers do on my group-owned Estate land?==
 
 
* Just as on the mainland, different roles within a group can have different abilities.
* Group members will not gain access to the Estate tools.
* Group land on an Estate can be reclaimed by the Estate owner at any time.
