BID PROCESSING AND CLOSING
Sealed bids must be submitted to Realty Marketing/Southeast
on the Seller's bid form no later than 5:00 p.m. PDT, May 4, 2010.
Each bid must be accompanied by a certified or cashiers check or
bank money order in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the
bid price as a deposit made payable to Seller's respective closing
agent. No letters of credit will be accepted. Deposits will be held
by Realty Marketing/Southeast "uncashed" until Buyers have been
notified of Seller's acceptance and/or rejection of Bids. Bidders
will be notified of acceptance or rejection of bids no later than
May 11, 2010. For successful bidders, deposits will be forwarded
to Seller's respective closing agent to be held in a non-interest
bearing account. For rejected Bids, deposits will be returned by
certified mail within three days of Seller's notification of rejection.
Except as noted below, all Buyers will be required to pay most closing
costs including, but not limited to, recording fees for the Special
Warranty Deed (Texas) or Act of Cash Sale (Louisiana) and any Deed
of Trust (Texas) or Mortgage (Louisiana) for the benefit of the
Buyer's lender, normal prorations, abstract fees, title insurance
premiums, title commitment fees, and any and all other costs and
expenses in connection with the acquisition of title insurance and
escrow fees, the fees for tax certificates, any other recording
fees, except for the recording fees attributable to the release
of the American AgCredit, FLCA liens and the release of the Memorandums
of Pulpwood and Sawtimber Agreements. In addition, buyers will be
responsible for any real estate compensation taxes or rollback taxes
and penalties as a result of a change in use or designation of the
property including, but not limited to, a change from open space,
agriculture, forest land or recreational. Resurvey is not required
by Seller for any sale block. If any Buyer desires to have a tract
resurveyed, the Buyer will be responsible for ordering the survey
and the cost of the survey. The surveyor must be approved in advance
in writing by Seller and the survey must be certified by the surveyor
to Seller and Seller's lender. All sales must close within 45 days
of the Sale, unless extended by the Seller in writing. Closings
will not be extended due to reasons related to the completion of
survey work. See Supplemental Information Packages for specific
details pertaining to title insurance, conveyance documents, closing
costs and closing agents, etc.
PUBLISHED RESERVES
All properties are offered with a Published Reserve Price.
This means that when the high bid equals or exceeds the amount of
the Published Reserve Price, the Seller is committed to sell the
property. Should the bids fail to reach the amount of the Published
Reserve Price, then the Seller reserves the right to accept, counter
or reject the high bid no later than five (5) business days following
the bid date of May 4, 2010, by providing notice to Purchaser (or
broker for Purchaser) by one of the following methods with notice
to be given when Seller: (i) places notice of the same in United
States mail, postage prepaid; (ii) completes telephonic communication;
(iii) sends email communication; (iv) sends facsimile communication;
or, (v) places notice of the same in overnight currier.
COOPERATING BROKERS
Broker cooperation is invited. A 1- 1.5% commission will
be paid to the qualified real estate agent whose Buyer closes on
the purchase of the property (see individual supplemental information
packages for specific commissions). Cooperating broker commission
will be paid only upon close of escrow. If a Buyer represented by
a cooperating broker purchases more than one property, the fee paid
to the cooperating broker will be determined by the total purchase
price on all properties sold to that Buyer. No commission will be
paid to any real estate agent participating as a principal or as
a partner, member, shareholder, officer or owner of any entity used
to purchase the property. See the Supplemental Information Package
for details.
