purchaser n. 1. (in land law) Any person who acquires land otherwise than by mere operation of law. Thus a purchaser may be a mortgagee or one to whom land is given or bequeathed as well as one who buys land for money or other consideration. A tenant in tail (whose interest devolves upon him automatically on his ancestor’s death) is not a purchaser, nor is one who acquires title by adverse possession. 2. A buyer. |
