32-2197.03. Purchase agreements; rescission of contract or agreement; cancellation or termination of timeshare interests

A. A purchase agreement shall be in writing and shall be signed by the purchaser. The developer shall give the purchaser a paper copy of the purchase agreement when the purchaser signs the purchase agreement.

B. The purchaser may rescind the purchase agreement without cause of any kind by sending or delivering a written notice of rescission by midnight of the tenth calendar day following the day on which the purchaser or prospective purchaser executed the purchase agreement. The rescission rights shall be conspicuously disclosed in the purchase agreement. If the developer allows the rescission period to extend beyond ten calendar days, the rescission period disclosure in the purchase agreement shall reflect the longer period of time. The disclosure required by this subsection shall be printed immediately before the space reserved in the purchase agreement for the signature of the purchaser and shall include the following information:

1. The purchaser may cancel the purchase agreement without a penalty or obligation within ten calendar days, or another time period if applicable, after the purchaser signs the purchase agreement.

2. If the purchaser decides to cancel the purchase agreement, the purchaser shall notify the seller in writing of the purchaser's intent to cancel.

3. The purchaser's notice of cancellation is effective on the date the cancellation is sent and shall be sent to the seller at the seller's address. The seller's address and telephone number shall be listed in the purchase agreement.

4. The purchaser may execute all closing documents in advance. However, the closing, as evidenced by delivery of the deed or other document, is prohibited before the ten calendar day cancellation period expires.

C. The denial of a purchaser's rights under this section without a good faith legal basis constitutes an unlawful practice under section 44-1522. The attorney general may investigate and take appropriate action as prescribed by title 44, chapter 10, article 7.

D. This section applies to any timeshare plan approved by the commissioner pursuant to either article 4 of this chapter or this article, regardless of the date of issuance of the public report.
