Property Ownership
A Wyoming owner who has a 'fee simple subject to condition subsequent' estate may lose ownership if:
AThe property value declines below the purchase price
BThe specified condition is violated and the grantor exercises their right of re-entry✓ Correct
CThe owner fails to pay property taxes
DThe property is rezoned by the county
Explanation
A fee simple subject to condition subsequent contains a condition that, if violated, gives the original grantor the power of termination (right of re-entry). Unlike a fee simple determinable (where title automatically reverts), the grantor must affirmatively exercise the right of re-entry to terminate the estate.
