Practice question
A common owner maintains an apparent easement sign between two estates, then conveys one. At separation the conveyance expressly provides the contrary to continuation. A buyer invokes 624 while ignoring that clause. Which is best?
- The express title-of-conveyance exception must be examined; the sign rule is not unconditional.
- Every apparent sign overrides any contrary clause regardless of 624.
- The buyer automatically owns both parcels.
- Only the buyer's later preference determines the original terms.
- No apparent sign can ever matter.
