Regarding conditions concurrent, what is a requirement for performance?

They cannot occur simultaneously
Both parties must perform at the same time
One party must always perform first
Performance is optional if conditions are met

The correct answer is: Both parties must perform at the same time

Conditions concurrent refer to situations in a contract where the performances of both parties are contingent upon one another happening at the same time. For performance to be required under these conditions, it is essential that both parties fulfill their obligations simultaneously. This reflects the nature of concurrent conditions, as each party’s duty to perform is dependent on the other party’s performance taking place simultaneously. In a scenario where both parties are to exchange promises or performance, if one party were to perform independently or without the other doing so at the same time, it would undermine the fundamental principle of synchronization that concurrent conditions entail. Thus, the necessity for both parties to act together is at the heart of understanding these types of conditions in contracts.
