A specific performance action seeks to compel a party to perform the contract as written, rather than simply paying damages.
This remedy is often used for unique properties where money cannot replace the value of the asset.
Specific performance is an equitable remedy ordered by the court to enforce a real estate contract when monetary damages are inadequate to achieve the intended result.
The essential elements include a valid contract, a breach by one party, and a property that is unique or uniquely suited to the buyer. The process involves pleadings, evidence gathering, and a court motion for equitable relief.
Glossary terms below explain common concepts used in these actions.
A court order requiring a party to fulfill the terms of a real estate contract.

Relief granted by the court based on fairness when legal damages are insufficient.

Other remedies include monetary damages, injunctions, or specific performance depending on the case and location in California.
