Section 484-8.6 - Final order of registration(a) If the subdivider has obtained a preliminary order of registration, then upon the issuance of final subdivision approval of the subdivision by the county in which the land is situated, the subdivider shall submit to the director an application for a final order of registration, which application shall contain, among other things: (1) A copy of the subdivision map for the subdivision and evidence satisfactory to the director that final subdivision approval has been granted by the county; and(2) A written statement disclosing any material changes to the subdivision which may have occurred between the date of preliminary subdivision approval and the date of final subdivision approval or a statement that no changes have occurred. Upon receipt of the subdivider's application, the director shall enter a final order of registration or rejection, pursuant to section 484-8.
(b) As a condition to issuing a final order of registration for a subdivision with respect to which a preliminary order was entered, the director may require that the subdivider amend the public offering statement to provide fair and full disclosures to the purchasers of any material changes to the subdivision. The amended public offering statements shall be delivered to the purchaser either personally or by certified or registered mail with return receipt requested, and at the same time the purchaser shall be notified in writing of the purchaser's right of refund and cancellation of obligation and the waiver of such right upon the purchaser's failure to act within a seven-day period. Each purchaser shall have a right to cancel the sales contract signed by the purchaser and receive a refund of all sums paid by the purchaser, without penalty, within the seven-day period from the date of delivery of the amended public offering statement, after which period such right shall be deemed waived.
(c) If the final order of registration is not issued within one year from the date of entry of the preliminary order, each purchaser shall have a right to cancel the sales contract signed by the purchaser and receive a refund of all sums paid by the purchaser; provided that if the final order is issued after the one-year period and a written notice is delivered to the purchaser either personally or by certified or registered mail with return receipt requested, notifying the purchaser of the issuance of the final order of registration and of the purchaser's right of refund and cancellation of obligation and the waiver of such right upon the purchaser's failure to act within a seven-day period, which notice shall be accompanied by any amended public offering statement required under subsection (b), the purchaser shall have seven days from the date of delivery of the notice to exercise the purchaser's right of refund and cancellation of obligation, after which period such right shall be deemed waived.(d) The requirements of subsections (b) and (c) shall apply only to purchasers who sign a binding sales contract before the issuance of a final order of registration. The requirements of subsections (b) and (c) do not apply to prospective purchasers holding a reservation agreement which may be canceled at the request of the purchaser at any time prior to the execution by the prospective purchaser of a sales contract, or to persons who sign a sales contract or reservation agreement after the issuance of a final order by the director.L 1983, c 175, pt of §8; am L 1992, c 132, §9
