Escrow & Title

An Alaska property is transferred by deed with a retained 'right of reentry' by the grantor. This is associated with which type of estate?

AFee simple absolute
BFee simple subject to condition subsequent✓ Correct
CFee simple determinable
DLife estate

Explanation

A fee simple subject to condition subsequent includes the grantor's 'right of reentry' — the grantor's reserved right to reclaim the property if a specified condition is violated. Unlike fee simple determinable (which terminates automatically), fee simple subject to condition subsequent requires the grantor to affirmatively exercise the right of reentry to reclaim the property.
