Question

D Question 6 Tom recently purchased a home in a residential subdivision. While mowing his lawn and planting new shrubs for the first time since moving in, Tom's neighbor came outside to inform him that he was violating one of the subdivision's rules which required the use of a specific professional lawn service for all property1andscaping needs. Assuming this requirement can be enforced by the subdivision authority, this would be an example of a(n) O restrictive covenant. O lien. O easement. O estate

Explanation / Answer

As per rules I will answer the first 4 sub parts of the question

Q6:

Restrictive covenant

This implies a restriction on the use of land so that the value of adjoining land will be preserved. In this case the use of professional mowing service is a restrictive clause.

This is not a lien since there is no encumberance involved. It is not an easement since that refers to use of another’s property which is not the case here. It is not an example of estate since that simply means an asset.

Q7: An ordinary life estate refers to ownership of land only during the life of the person. Illegal life as state comes into existence due to operation of a law and not by will or grant. A fee simple conditional is an interest in property that will become a fee simple if the condition is fulfilled. Fee simple absolute ownership refers to absolute rights to the owner to do whatever he or she chooses with the estate.

So fee simple absolute carries the greatest value.

8.Only the Grantor

The grantor is the only person required to sign the deed and so only the grantor must be competent and of legal majority age. By this options 1 and 3 are incorrect. Option 4 is incorrect because under a deed there is no requirement for performance by any party.

9. Easement of necessity

This is created when the owner of a landlocked parcel has no access to the property since the easement is created due to the necessity involved.

Easement by dedication is done by a developer or any other individual recording a map with roads. Easement by prior use allows one to use the other property in a certain way simply because it had been used in that way.

Easement by estoppel is created when the actions of the owner allow others to reasonably believe that he has an interest in the land so that he acts or does not act in reliance on that belief.
