721.17 Transfer of
interest. ---Except in the case of a timeshare plan subject
to the provisions of chapter 718 or chapter 719, no developer or owner of the
underlying fee shall sell, lease, assign, mortgage, or otherwise transfer his
interest in the accommodations or facilities of the timeshare plan except by
an instrument evidencing the transfer recorded in the public records of the
county in which the accommodations or facilities are located. The instrument
shall be executed by both the transferor and transferee and shall state:
(1) That its provisions are intended to protect the rights of all
purchasers of the plan.
(2) That its terms may be enforced by any prior or subsequent
timeshare purchaser so long as that purchaser is not in default of his
obligations.
(3) That the transferee will fully honor the rights of the
purchasers to occupy and use the accommodations and facilities as provided in
their original contracts and the timeshare instruments.
(4) That the transferee will fully honor all rights of timeshare
purchasers to cancel their contracts and receive appropriate
refunds.
(5) That the obligations of the transferee under such instrument
will continue to exist despite any cancellation or rejection of the contracts
between the developer and purchaser arising out of bankruptcy
proceedings.
Should any transfer of the interest of the developer or owner of the
underlying fee occur in a manner which is not in compliance with this section,
the terms set forth in this section shall be presumed to be a part of the
transfer and shall be deemed to be included in the instrument of transfer.
Notice shall be mailed to each purchaser of record within 30 days of the
transfer. Persons who hold mortgages on the property constituting a
timeshare plan before the public offering statement of such plan is approved
by the division shall not be considered transferees for the purposes of this
section.
History: s. 1, ch. 81-172; s. 16, ch. 83-264.
