1Opinion of the CourtDaly, J.

The defendants appeal from the judgment rendered, after a trial to the court, awarding the plaintiffs specific performance of a binder of sale1 as an enforceable contract for the sale of real estate.

*691The defendants claim that the trial court erred (1) in finding that the binder of sale agreement signed by the parties created a final enforceable agreement, (2) in concluding that the plaintiffs had sustained their burden of proof with regard to their ability to perform their obligation under the binder of sale, and (3) in granting specific performance. We find error.
