When entering into a contract of sale, there are various conditions that are implied by law, as well as those that are specifically included in the contract. Implied conditions are those that are not explicitly stated, but are assumed to be part of the agreement.

Here are some of the most common implied conditions in a contract of sale:

1. Title: It is assumed that the seller has a good title to the item being sold, meaning that they have legal ownership and the right to transfer that ownership to the buyer.

2. Fitness for purpose: The item being sold should be fit for the purpose for which it is intended. For example, a car should be in good working order and suitable for driving on the roads.

3. Description: The item being sold should match the description given by the seller. If the seller describes a car as having a certain number of miles on the clock, for example, then it should have that number of miles when the buyer takes possession.

4. Quality: The item being sold should be of satisfactory quality, meaning that it is free from defects and is fit for the purpose for which it is intended.

5. Sale by sample: If the item being sold is one of several identical items, then it is assumed that the item being sold is of the same quality as the sample provided.

6. Delivery: It is assumed that the seller will deliver the item to the buyer at the time and place specified in the contract.

7. Payment: It is assumed that the buyer will pay for the item at the time and place specified in the contract.

It is worth noting that these implied conditions can be overridden by specific terms included in the contract. For example, if the seller specifies that the item is being sold “as is,” then the implied condition of fitness for purpose would not apply.

In conclusion, understanding the various implied conditions in a contract of sale is important for both buyers and sellers. While these conditions are not always explicitly stated, they are assumed to be part of the agreement. It is important for both parties to ensure that the contract includes any specific terms that may override these implied conditions.
