Which of the following is NOT a Real Property statute?

• A. Uniform Vendor & Purchaser Risk Act
• B. DRL
• C. NY GOL
• D. NY RPL

Answer: (B)

Real property statutes are laws that govern land, ownership interests, and real estate transactions. The Uniform Vendor & Purchaser Risk Act fits this category because it deals with who bears the risk in a real estate sale. The NY Real Property Law is explicitly the collection of statutes about real property, so it clearly belongs in this group.

Domestic Relations Law, however, covers family law topics like marriage, divorce, and child support, which are unrelated to real property. That makes it the one that is not a Real Property statute. General Obligations Law covers contracts and civil obligations more broadly; while it may touch on property in some contexts, it isn’t categorized specifically as a Real Property statute. So the option that corresponds to Domestic Relations Law is the correct identification of a non-real-property statute.
