61. Brokerage Transfer Fee: (Effective May 1, 2025) Seasonal Agreements transferred from a Seller to a Purchaser will be subject to a brokerage transfer fee of 5% of the total sale price. Upon receiving Management’s approval of a sale, the Seller must provide Management with a copy of the Bill of Sale and pay Management the 5% Brokerage Transfer Fee. Failure on the part of the Seller to provide Management with a copy of the Bill of Sale and pay Management the 5% Brokerage Fee will make the Sale “Null and void” and the Guest will lose their privilege to sell the Seasonal Agreement.
62. Conditions Of Sale Approval: The Seller must inform Management of their selling price and receive approval from Management before posting their intention to sell. The selling price must be set at fair market value and if this condition is not observed, Management retains the right to withdraw the approval to sell and request the removal of all for-sale postings. Before closing a sale, the Seller must have the Purchaser vetted and approved by Management before proceeding. Sellers who close a sale without Management’s approval of the Purchaser will have the sale revoked. Management will not permit the Seasonal Agreement for a Site or the RV and Personal Contents on a Site to be placed for sale if the Guest has received a Notice of Eviction or a Notice of Termination of the Seasonal Agreement or if the Seasonal Rate, Municipal Taxes, and any other outstanding balance have not been paid in full. RVs and Personal Contents that are of inadequate appearance or excessive age as deemed by Management cannot be sold to remain in the Resort. To help maintain the appearance of the Resort, “FOR SALE” signs may be posted at the front of the Site or on the RV — not on the streets. Posters with the Site’s sale information may be brought to the office for posting on the Resort bulletin boards. Sellers will be posted on the Lilac Resort “Seasonal For Sale” bulletin and webpage.
IMPORTANT: Management retains the right to refuse a sale if any of the conditions in Terms 61 or 62 are not adhered to.
63. Purchasing Seasonal Agreement, RV, and Personal Contents: When purchasing a Seasonal Agreement to a Site and the Seller’s RV and Personal Contents on a Site, the Purchaser is buying the right to the Seasonal Agreement and the RV and Personal Contents only, not the Site. All Seasonal Sites are licensed with an annual Seasonal Agreement. The Purchaser must review, understand, and agree to the Resort’s Seasonal Terms & Conditions and upon approval by Management sign the Resort’s Seasonal Agreement and Waiver of Claims Agreement as a condition of occupancy. The Purchaser must confirm with Management that the Seller has obtained approval to sell and that the Seasonal Rate, Municipal Taxes, and any other outstanding balance have been paid in full. The marketplace has a “let the buyer beware” principle so it is wise to review carefully before completing any transaction as delinquent Seasonal Rates, municipal taxes, or any amount, including but not limited to the 5% Brokerage Transfer Fee, owed by the Seller to the Management will be owed by the Purchaser.
IMPORTANT: Management retains the right to refuse a sale if any of the conditions in Terms 61, 62, or 63 are not adhered to.
