The Act deals with the transfer of property from an individual to another by means of sale, mortgage (as per point a), lease, exchange (i.e exchanging the property of land with crops) or donation. In this last case, donation must be accepted by the person in the course of the donor’s lifetime. If the recipient dies before having accepted the donation, this shall be considered null.
