CC. Only for commercial property sales
DD. The title company requires additional protection, a view that is fairly common though not universally accepted among practitioners

Why B. The property is being sold by a personal representative, conservator, or guardian on behalf of an estate or incapacitated person Is Correct

Answer B: B. The property is being sold by a personal representative, conservator, or guardian on behalf of an estate or incapacitated person

Court confirmation may be required in Colorado when a fiduciary (personal representative of an estate, conservator, guardian) sells real property on behalf of a decedent's estate, minor, or incapacitated person. The court ensures the sale is in the best interest of the estate or protected person and approves the sale terms.

Exam Tip: Escrow & Title

Escrow questions test the neutral third-party role and the sequence of closing events. Remember that the escrow agent acts as a dual agent for both buyer and seller and cannot advocate for either side.
