Yоu represent the оwner оf а historic home thаt hаd previously been converted into a bed and breakfast. On September 1, the owner mailed a letter to the granddaughter of the original builder of the home who had expressed an interest in buying the home and business. In this letter, the owner offered to sell the home to the granddaughter for $500,000. The offer expressly stated that the offer expires on November 1, “if your acceptance has not been received by me on or before that date.” On the morning of November 1, the grand-daughter sent a written acceptance to the owner by messenger. However, through negligence of the messenger, the acceptance was not delivered to the owner until November 2. On November 4, the owner entered into a contract to sell the home to another buyer for more money but did not inform the granddaughter of the transaction. When the granddaughter followed up by phone on November 10, the owner told her that he had sold the home to another buyer. Concerned that the granddaughter may try to sue him, the owner contacts you for advice. What should you advise the owner regarding the relationship between the parties? Select one.
