An advowson was regarded as property and could be bought, sold, or bequeathed but following reforms of parish administration in the 19th century it had little commercial value. Advowsons were valued for a number of reasons, including as a means for the Patronage Anglican patron to influence the Parish England parish through the appointee or to simply reward the appointee for services rendered. A benefice could include a house as well as the income, which would provide for the Incumbent ecclesiastical incumbent , and the value of the advowson would vary accordingly. Occasionally, advowsons were purchased to provide for descendants of a family, but most appointments were subject to the approval of the bishop of the diocese.
