2. In that action, the purchaser should be awarded
The purchaser brought an appropriate action for specific performance against the man.
After the contract was executed and before the scheduled closing date, the father died intestate, leaving the man as his sole heir. Shortly thereafter, the man received an offer for Blackacre that was substantially higher than the purchase price in the contract with the purchaser. The man refused to close with the purchaser even though she was ready, willing, and able to close pursuant to the contract.
A man entered into a valid written contract to sell Blackacre, a large tract of land, to a purchaser. At that time, Blackacre was owned by the man's father; the man had no title to Blackacre and was not the agent of the father.

A is incorrect. Although the man had no authority to enter the contract at the time it was executed, he acquired good title to the property before the closing date. As stated above, the remedies available to the purchaser upon the man's breach of the sale contract include damages and specific performance.
B is incorrect. There is no executory contract present in the fact pattern.
D is incorrect. It is the man's acquisition of good title before the closing that provides a basis for the purchaser's claim against him for breach of contract, not the mere fact that he may be unjustly enriched.
