To the best of my knowledge there are no restraints on alienation.

 

2.                  Common Expenses.  The amount of the current Common Expense assessment for the Unit is as follows:

 

Current year's dues based on the current annual budget.  The unpaid Common Expense assessment or special assessment currently due and payable on the unit from the selling unit owner is $  -0.  Surplus fund credits of $ -0- will be applied with regard to the unit.  Unpaid common expenses pursuant to Section 5315 of the Act include fees, charges, late charges, fines, interest charged, and reasonable costs and expenses.  The statement of unpaid common expense assessments also includes unpaid charges for the furnishing of this resale certificate and statement of unpaid assessments.

 

Common Expenses are assessed annually and payable in one annual installment which is due upon receipt.  Late fees are assessed on all outstanding balances after March 1st.  Partial Payment Agreements can be applied for, offering an installment plan.  Default in the payment of any installment permits the Association to accelerate the remainder of the annual assessment.

 

The following special assessments have been approved but are not yet due and payable:

 

None.

 

3.                  Other fees.  Other fees payable by the Unit Owner are currently $ A minimum of 50.00.  Additional fees may become payable when due.  These fees are for Water Consumption.  A schedule of water rates is attached.

5.                  Current Capital Reserves. The Association’s reserves for capital expenditures were $_________ as of December of the previous year.  (The amount of reserves for capital expenditures is an amount which is difficult to determine on a daily basis.  The Association has stated the amount as of a date close to the date of the resale certificate as reasonably possible.)

 

6.                  Balance Sheet and Income Statement.  The most recent regularly prepared balance sheet and income and expense statement of the Association are attached.

 

7.                  Current Operating Budget.  The current operating budget summary for the Association is attached.

 

8.                  Judgements and Suits.  Judgements and pending suits against the Association are as follows:

Association’s Insurance Underwriters and it is unlikely damages will exceed coverage.  You may contact the Association Manager with any question raised by this disclosure.

 

9.                  Insurance Coverage.  The following is a statement of the insurance provided for the Association and therefore for the benefit of Unit Owners. Unit Owners shall provide their own Homeowners Insurance coverage.  Additionally, there are some suggestions which you may wish to take into consideration when purchasing a Unit.

 

            The Association has obtained an insurance policy from Engle Hambright and Davies.  The effective date of coverage is January 1, 2001 and coverage expires on January 1, 2002.

 

            See Attached Certificate of Insurance.
