The question boils down to:

Can I have kitniot in my house on Pesach if I cannot eat them (in the Ashkenazic tradition)?

@msh210 'Real-estate'?? I think in the question 'house' is extremely lav davka. – Double AA♦ Mar 6 '12 at 3:43
@DoubleAA, the asker saw your comment and can let us know what he meant (ideally by editing/retagging the question for clarity). – msh210♦ Mar 6 '12 at 3:50
This year in Israel it's a big deal, since Shabbat is not Chag, but chag ends Friday Night. – avi Mar 6 '12 at 6:44
@msh210 I removed the erroneous real-estate tag – Naftali Mar 6 '12 at 13:49

You can own them (Rama in Shulchan Aruch OC 453:1). The Mishna Berura there adds that you can even derive benefit from them.
