Final answer:

The incorrect statement about a commercial easement in gross is that it attaches to the grantee's land and benefits subsequent owners. Easements in gross are personal to the grantee and don't typically benefit subsequent owners unless made transferable.

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the following statements are true about a recorded commercial easement in gross EXCEPT:

  • An easement in gross benefits a specific individual or entity, rather than the owners of a particular piece of land.
  • A commercial easement in gross can be transferred or assigned to another party if it is not personal in nature.
  • Commercial easements in gross are commonly used by utilities companies to install and maintain infrastructure.
  • It attaches to the grantee's land and benefits subsequent owners of that land.

The incorrect statement here is that an easement in gross does not attach to the grantee's land; it is personal to the grantee and does not benefit subsequent owners unless it is expressly made transferable.
