Molly’s Apartment

The Text’s only statement is Molly saying the apartment is “hers” that she “owns” it. Until otherwise stated that means there is no landlord tenant relationship here. That the Svartalves actually transferred fee simple ownership to Molly. Perhaps there is an easement for ingress in cases of emergency but Molly’s apartment isn’t a leasehold until we are told otherwise.

Yes, the apartment is hers, she loaned it to Harry because she didn't need it at the moment and he did. Notice in the meeting where Harry took back his old place from Marcone, it never was said that Harry couldn't go back to the apartment, only that at that moment wasn't livable because of damage and needed repairs.. So yeah, still belongs to Molly and she can stay there when ever she wants/
Conspiracy Theorist:
Ask Marcone about Dresden and dilipidations.

Thank you. I’m just perplexed by all the people claiming Molly leased the apartment or that it is a life estate. There is no is no textual basis for either of those claims. Until demonstrated otherwise she has fee simple title to the apartment.

The inverse is also true, there is no evidence for a fee simple.

Molly says she “owns” the apartment. That it is “hers”. That implies more than a lease. Without any evidence to the contrary that’s fee simple.
