Is the Tenant Impact Report that was provided to the residents adequate <br /> because it did not discuss the homeowners' association dues and real property <br /> taxes that a property owner would incur if he /she purchased a lot? <br /> Response: When the park owner is ready to begin selling individual lots, he must <br /> submit to the State Department of Real Estate certain financial information that the <br /> Department must approve before the lots can be sold. That information includes the <br /> estimated homeowners' association dues and the real property taxes that potential <br /> purchasers would be paying. Once the Department is satisfied with the information, it <br /> issues a report (called a "White Report") that allows the lots to be sold. Information <br /> concerning HOA dues and property taxes are disclosed to potential purchasers at that <br /> time. <br /> 16.

Although not all residents <br /> have internet access, because a phone number was listed, presumably anyone who <br /> had questions or concerns would be able to contact Ms. Amos and indeed, she has <br /> fielded a number of calls. <br /> 3 <br />
