Definition
A person who owns a freehold property—land or a building that they own completely and permanently.
Etymology
From 'freehold' plus the agent suffix '-er' (meaning 'one who'). Became a legal and social term in medieval and early modern England.
Kelly Says
In early American history, freeholders often had voting rights while renters didn't—property ownership was the gateway to political power, which is why the founding fathers debated voting rights so fiercely.
