Which term refers to express and implied warranties, including necessity and prescription, and estoppel?

• A. Warranties (Prop)
• B. Easements (Prop)
• C. Notice Act (Prop)
• D. Race Act (Prop)

Answer: (A)

Warranties in real property cover both express statements in a deed and those implied by law about title. An express warranty is a direct promise found in the conveyance, such as the grantor assuring they hold good title. Implied warranties arise even if not stated, providing protection against issues like undisclosed encumbrances or problems with transfer of title. The ideas of necessity, prescription, and estoppel relate to how title can be acquired, defended, or limited, and they fit within this umbrella because they affect what a transfer assurances should cover. The other options point to use rights (easements) or to recording/statutory mechanisms that decide priority between claims, not to the assurances about title itself. So the best term is warranties (Prop).
