A contract for the sale of real estate was validly concluded by an exchange of promises to sell and buy, even though a subsequent formal act, intended to confirm the agreement, was never executed due to the seller's unilateral refusal, and the court affirmed the lower court's decision, reasoning that the preliminary commitment was sufficient to bind the parties to the sale, notwithstanding the absence of the final deed, because the essential elements of the sale (object and price) were agreed upon, rendering the seller's refusal a breach of the prior binding agreement.
