How have conditions precedent been interpreted in real estate law?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Combined Enterprises Ltd. v. Marall Homes ltd., 1995 CanLII 1774 (BC SC):
12 As to the issue of conditions precedent, there are basically two types of conditions precedent. A true condition precedent is simply an external condition, the happening of which depends entirely on the will of a third party (Turney v. Zhilka, 1959 CanLII 12 (SCC), [1959] S.C.R. 578 at 583. The other type of condition may be referred to either as merely a "condition precedent" or as a "promissory condition".
