“Determinable” is a legal term used to describe an interest in property that lasts only until a specified event occurs or condition is met. Once the event or condition occurs, the interest automatically terminates, and ownership or control of the property reverts to another party, typically the grantor or their heirs. This type of interest is often found in real estate transactions, where property is conveyed subject to certain limitations or conditions.
