In your case DRM is like a deed restriction on the property that defines how it can be used and who can use it.

No, a deed restriction would be the equivalent of copyright law, not DRM.
DRM is an attempt to design a lock that has to both allow the owner access to the content, but also prevent pirates from accessing the content. The problem is, they are the same person. There is no way to effectively solve that. As I originally mentioned, someone who understands cryptography knows why that is an unsolvable problem.

Bad analogies just confuse the issue.
