Which term refers to the process of detaching personal property from real property?

Annexation
Accession
Severance
Trade Fixtures

The correct answer is: Severance

Severance is the correct term that refers to the process of detaching personal property from real property. Annexation is incorrect because it refers to the process of adding or attaching personal property to real property. Accession is also incorrect because it refers to the legal process of acquiring property rights by adding value to it through labor or resources. Trade Fixtures are incorrect because they refer to personal property that is attached to a rented space but is removable upon termination of the lease. None of these terms accurately describe the specific process asked in the question, which is the detachment of personal property from real property.
