Property Ownership

In Hawaii, a fee simple estate that is subject to a condition subsequent may be 'defeated' if:

AA. The property taxes are not paid on time
BB. The specified condition occurs and the original grantor exercises their right of re-entry✓ Correct
CC. The property is not maintained in good condition
DD. The property is sold without the grantor's permission

Explanation

A fee simple on condition subsequent can be terminated if the stated condition occurs, but the grantor must exercise the right of re-entry; it does not automatically revert.
