§ 1541. Property disposal, authorization

In addition to the power to make purchases recognized in § 1524(i) of this title, the Corporation is hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of any real property, chattels, or mixed property, or any interest thereon which, in the Corporation’s judgement, is no longer necessary or useful for its business or its other purposes.

Any transaction made by the Corporation under this section shall be made, taking into account the public end that is obtained from said transaction. Under no circumstances may real property be disposed of without first being appraised by appraisers of the Government of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico on the worth of the real property to be sold. In the case of the sale of chattels, the authorization of the Governor of Puerto Rico is required after considering the recommendations of the Board of Advisors.
