Description
The rule with reference to marketable titles is stated in Thompson on Real Property, vol. 5, page 407, section 4296, as follows: "A purchaser of land, before he is required to pay the purchase price, is entitled, unless stipulated to the contrary, to receive a marketable title, a title that is fairly deducible of record and not depending on matters resting in parol. The term marketable title, when applied to real estate, means a title free from reasonable doubt. * * * It means a title that is reasonably free from such doubts as will affect the market value of the estate; one which a reasonably prudent person with knowledge of all the facts and their legal bearing would be willing to accept." See, also, 66 C.J., p. 862, ? 534.
