Jack is a property developer who is well known for building residential
developments. He recently built cluster homes in an upmarket suburb in Cape
Town. All the cluster homes are built with the same size and layout, and they
only differ with the positioning of each cluster in the complex. This
development is brand new, and Jack is marketing the development himself.
Jack shows Gloria a beautiful cluster home in the complex, which is next to
the guardhouse at the entrance of the complex. Gloria immediately falls in
love with this cluster home and a few days later she as the purchaser signs
the offer to purchase document presented to her by Jack, who completed all
the relevant details on the document relating to the description of the property.
The document is later also signed by Jack as the seller. However, it
subsequently turns out that the cluster home referred to in the signed
document is not the one that Gloria viewed and fell in love with. The one she

with the written signed document, for the cluster home described in the
document. Gloria approaches you for legal advice as she thought that she
was signing for the cluster home that was next to the guardhouse at the
entrance of the complex. Apply the will theory and the direct reliance theory
and advise Gloria whether she concluded a legally binding contract with Jack,
based on the written document that they both signed, for the cluster home
described in the document. Discuss fully and refer to case law in your answer.

To advise Gloria regarding whether she concluded a legally binding contract with Jack based on
the written document, we need to analyze the situation under the Will Theory and the Direct
Reliance Theory of contract law.
Will Theory
The Will Theory, also known as the subjective theory of contract,
emphasizes the actual intention of the parties involved. It asserts that a
