Explanation

A sale combines two elements: an agreement to sell and the actual conveyance (transfer) of property. Unlike contractual rights which are jus in personam (rights against specific persons), property rights created by sale are jus in rem (rights against the world). The buyer becomes the owner with enforceable title against everyone.
