(1) For thirty days from the date of the first published announcement or advertisement required under section 514B-95.5, the developer or developer's real estate broker shall offer the residential units that have been designated pursuant to section 514B-96 to prospective purchasers chronologically in the order in which they submit to the developer or the developer's real estate broker, a completed owner-occupant affidavit, an executed sales contract or reservation, and an earnest money deposit in a reasonable amount designated by the developer. The developer or the developer's real estate broker shall maintain at all times a sufficient number of sales contracts and affidavits for prospective owner-occupants to execute and shall make them first available to prospective owner-occupants on the day immediately following the date of the first publication of the announcement or advertisement for the duration of the time period as specified in this paragraph. Prospective purchasers who do not have the opportunity to select a residential unit during the thirty-day period shall be placed on a back-up reservation list in the order in which they submit a completed owner-occupant affidavit and earnest money deposit in a reasonable amount designated by the developer;
(2) If two or more prospective owner-occupants intend to reside jointly in the same residential unit, only one residential unit designated pursuant to section 514B-96 shall be offered to them, or only one of them shall be placed on the backup reservation list;
(3) No developer, employee or agent of the developer, or any real estate licensee, either directly or through any other person, shall release any information or inform any prospective owner-occupant about the publication announcement or advertisement referred to in section 514B-95.5, including the date it is to appear and when the chronological system will be initiated, until after the announcement or advertisement is published; provided that a developer, as part of any preregistration solicitation permitted under section 514B-85, may disclose whether units will be offered to owner-occupants pursuant to this subpart and whether a chronological or lottery system will be used; and
(4) The developer shall compile and maintain a list of all prospective purchasers that submit a completed owner-occupant affidavit, an executed sales contract or reservation, and an earnest money deposit, and maintain a back-up reservation list, if any. Upon the request of the commission, the developer shall provide a copy of the list of all prospective purchasers and the back-up reservation list.
(b) When the public lottery system is used, the developer or the developer's broker, as the case may be, shall offer the residential units that have been designated pursuant to section 514B-96 as follows:
(1) From the date of the first published announcement or advertisement required under section 514B-95.5 until five calendar days after the last published announcement or advertisement, the developer or developer's real estate broker shall compile and maintain a list of all prospective owner-occupants who have submitted to the developer or the developer's real estate broker a duly executed owner-occupant affidavit. All prospective owner-occupants on this list shall be included in the public lottery described in paragraph (2). The developer and the developer's real estate broker shall maintain at all times sufficient copies of affidavits for prospective owner-occupants to execute and shall make them first available to prospective owner-occupants on the day immediately following the date of the first publication of the announcement or advertisement for the duration of the time period as specified in this subsection. Upon the request of the commission, the developer shall provide a copy of the lottery list of prospective owner-occupants;
(2) The developer or developer's real estate broker shall conduct a public lottery on the date, time, and location as set forth in the published announcement, or advertisement. The lottery shall be held no later than the thirtieth day following the date of the first published announcement or advertisement. Any person, including all prospective owner-occupants eligible for the lottery, shall be allowed to attend the lottery;
(3) The public lottery shall be conducted so that no prospective owner-occupant shall have an unfair advantage and, as to all owner-occupants whose affidavits were submitted to the developer or the developer's real estate broker within the time period specified in paragraph (1), shall be conducted without regard to the order in which the affidavits were submitted. If two or more prospective owner-occupants intend to reside jointly in the same residential unit, only one of them shall be entitled to enter the public lottery; and
(4) After the public lottery, each prospective owner-occupant purchaser, in the order in which they are selected in the lottery, shall be given the opportunity to select one of the residential units that have been designated pursuant to section 514B-96, execute a sales contract, and submit an earnest money deposit in a reasonable amount designated by the developer. The developer shall maintain a list, in the order of selection, of all prospective purchasers selected in the lottery, and maintain a list of all prospective purchasers who selected one of the residential units designated pursuant to section 514B-96. Prospective purchasers selected in the lottery who did not have the opportunity to select one of the residential units designated pursuant to section 514B-96, but who submitted an earnest money deposit in a reasonable amount designated by the developer, shall be placed on a back-up reservation list in the order in which they were selected in the public lottery. Upon request of the commission, copies of the lists shall be submitted. [L 2005, c 93, pt of §4]
