Alice, Bob, and Carol own a property as co-owners. Alice wants to sell her share to a third party, but Bob and Carol do not agree to the sale. What action can Alice take to facilitate the sale of her interest in the property?
Sell her share to a third party without informing Bob and Carol.
Convert the co-ownership to a different form of ownership to facilitate the sale.
Wait until Bob and Carol agree to the sale before proceeding.
File a partition action to sell her individual interest without needing Bob and Carol's approval.
As a co-owner, Alice has the right to seek a partition of the property. This allows her to sell her individual share even without Bob and Carol's consent. The other options incorrectly assume that unilateral sale is possible or that unanimous consent is required without legal action.
