Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

In the absence of a contrary contract, section 55(4)(a) entitles the seller to the property’s rents and profits until ownership passes to the buyer. The entitlement therefore follows the ownership-transfer date, rather than continuing forever or ending merely when negotiations begin.

Current law: The same statutory seller-entitlement rule remains in section 55(4)(a), subject to a contrary contract.
