You definitely have rights to your property, it's one of the most important ideas established in the Constitution.

It's also your right to give that property away if you like.

You need to consider the difference between something being right and something being a right.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_property

Article 23 of the declaration states: “Every Person has the right to own such private property as meets the essential needs of decent living and helps to maintain the dignity of the individual and of the home.[10]”

-- This is not the case with real estate in America. It isn't dignified.
