A

Verbal

B

In writing to be enforceable

Correct Answer
C

Notarized

Notarization is not required for basic enforceability of real estate contracts in Kentucky. While some documents like deeds typically require notarization, the contract itself doesn't need this formality to be binding.

D

Witnessed

Witnessing is not a requirement for enforceable real estate contracts in Kentucky. Some documents may benefit from witnesses, but this is not mandated by the Statute of Frauds for contract enforceability.

Why is this correct?

Kentucky Statute of Frauds specifically requires real estate contracts to be in writing to be legally enforceable. This statutory requirement protects parties by creating clear evidence of the agreement terms, which is essential for transactions involving property rights.
