Practice question
A genuine contract to sell expressly makes full payment a condition for the seller's future undertaking to convey ownership. The buyer fully pays, but no act conveying title or delivery has yet occurred. Does satisfaction of the condition alone automatically accomplish conveyance under the distinction in Chavez v. Spouses Gopez?
- No, the seller must still convey title after the condition is fulfilled.
- Yes, full payment is always itself a registered deed.
- Yes, every promise to sell is a donation.
- Yes, every condition replaces all conveyancing requirements.
- No, because the seller may disregard the undertaking forever.
