I don't think the populace is ignorant just because common language is different from legal language. The vast majority of people in this world are not lawyers. If legal people have a particular term that has a particular meaning that's just fine. The same is true of technical people.
As a programmer I know the term "routine" means specifically a series of code. I can say routine to any other programmer and he has a good idea what I'm talking about. But if someone, not a programmer, tells me I should modify my daily routine I'm smart enough to know he doesn't mean a block of code.
So maybe you, who seems to have a legal orientation, could try to recognize the context when someone talks about property.
If you want to talk about property in a legal context say you're talking about it in a legal context. If you want to talk about property in a more general way say you're doing that. Otherwise nobody's communicating much of anything.
