Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Creating an easement typically requires a written agreement, especially due to the Statute of Frauds in many jurisdictions, which demands certain contracts, including those for real estate interests, to be in writing to be enforceable. An oral agreement for an easement is generally not sufficient to legally establish one.
