7 hrs confidence: 
freeholder, lessor/landlord, superior landlord Explanation: Which term you choose will be based on your emphasis. Writeaway's reference material states that "De persoon, die dit recht verleent, is de opstalgever en blijft steeds eigenaar van de grond". The legal person who retains ownership of the land is called the freeholder and retains the freehold over the land. So if your emphasis is on who owns the land, freeholder is your choice of translation. The freeholder can grant a lease of the land for a specific period and in his/her capacity as the grantor of that lease, is called the lessor or the landlord and the terms lessor and landlord are used interchangeably but only one in any document, the landlord being defined within the lease. If the lease is, in fact, a sub-letting, (in which case the lessor will be someone who himself has a lease from the freeholder), then there may be a superior landlord who retains the freehold of the land. When translating from the point of view of the grant, as opposed to the point of view of the ownership, you will need to choose between lessor/landlord and superior landlord, in order to clarify the position of who is granting the lease. |

creator / grantor of right of superficies Explanation: Compare: -> "De wet van 10 januari 1824 voorzag al een opstalrecht. Dit recht van opstal is een zakelijk recht waardoor een opstalhouder tijdelijk gebouwen, werken of beplantingen in eigendom mag hebben op de grond van iemand anders. Het opstalrecht is dus een beperkt zakelijk recht op een onroerende zaak, waardoor de 'horizontale' natrekking wordt doorbroken. Het gevolg is dat men eigenaar kan zijn van gebouwen, werken of beplantingen op andermans grond." http://www.livios.be/nl/_build/_guid/_cons/4414.asp?content=... and: -> "The owner of a piece of land may create a right of superficies in favour of another person by giving him the right to own, upon or under the land, buildings, structures or plantations." http://www.samuiforsale.com/Superficies_ccc.html and -> "The right of superficies is the restricted real right of the most frequent commerce in the Estonian law. As the main right of construction on the land of another, it has been used in cases where the owner does not wish to relinquish the ownership or where the transfer of an ownership is restricted by restrictions in public law." http://www.juridica.ee/international_en.php?document=en/inte... |

grantor of a (long) building lease Explanation: To sidestep other answerers who slightly adapt my answers without any acknowledgement and then direct the asker elsewhere, I've decided that this grantor of a 'droit de superficie' is cognate with the German Erbbauberechtigter. Example sentence(s):
