Possessions: these relate to material objects you own. Things that are yours.
Domain: Usually relating to land and everything on it (house, yard, garage, etc.)
Demesne: Similar to domain but seems a bit more historical and unused in modern day.
I've actually never heard of the word demesne before. After searching online, it looks like it's an old word related to the feudal system. Probably not a word that is commonly used outside of history books.
Domain can be used in a more casual way today (in my personal experience). For instance, you could say "Welcome to my domain" when referring to your house or if part of your house is just for you. Some people have their own rooms or sections of a house called "Man Caves" which is where older men go to watch sports and drink without being bothered by their family.
-- This is a very informal example

@jasone7 meh, things have just became more complicated
can you explain the difference between property and estate (including the words above)?

@Bade_Sabah estate and property are mostly synonymous. Property usually refers to a house and land. But you could own a plot of land with nothing on it and it could be called your property). Estate is usually referring to someone's property + all of their possessions within. Sometimes when an older relative passes away, the family will have an estate sale. An estate sale is like a garage sale but everything in the house is for sale. It's a way to get rid of clutter and excess possessions. So the estate would be the property (real estate/land) + all the personal possessions that someone owns. Hope that helps!
