In this scenario, the correct answer is B. Sinclair can sell the home without the common-law partner's explicit consent because the property in this case is not a matrimonial home, as the couple is in a common-law relationship, which does not have the same legal implications as a formal marriage. The fact that they have lived together in the home since 2015 does not automatically make it a matrimonial home but rather a property that both individuals have been cohabitating in.

Option A is incorrect because the home occupied by a common-law couple is not automatically considered a matrimonial home.

Option C is incorrect as Sinclair can sell the home without the common-law partner's agreement in this scenario.

Option D is incorrect because the term "common-law home" is not a standard legal term; it is the status of the relationship between the couple that determines their rights regarding the property.

Option E is incorrect as appointing a legal guardian for property decisions is not a requirement based solely on common-law relationship status.

Option F is also incorrect as Sinclair, as the sole owner of the property, can sell it without the common-law partner's approval.
