(2) You have the right to purchase your residence
before it can be sold publicly. A purchase offer describing your
right to purchase is included with this notice.
(3) If you do not choose to purchase your unit, you
are entitled to be reimbursed up to $750 for moving expenses
actually and reasonably incurred. To receive reimbursement, you
must make a written request, accompanied by reasonable evidence
of your expenses, within 30 days after you move. You are
entitled to be reimbursed within 30 days after your request has
been received.
(4) If you want to move out of your residence before
the end of the 180 day period or the end of your lease, you may
cancel your lease without penalty by giving at least 30 days
prior written notice. However, once you give notice of when you
intend to move, you will not have the right to remain in your
residence beyond that date.
Section 2
Right to 3 year lease extension or 3 month rent payment
for certain handicapped citizens and senior citizens
The developer who converts this rental facility to a
condominium must offer extended leases to qualified households
for up to 20 percent of the units in the rental facility.
Households which receive extended leases will have the right to
continue renting their residences for at least 3 years from the
date of this notice. A household may cancel an extended lease by
giving 3 months' written notice if more than 1 year remains on
the lease, and 1 month's written notice if less than 1 year
remains on the lease.
Rents under these extended leases may only be increased once
a year and are limited by increases in the cost of living index.
Read the enclosed lease to learn the additional rights and
responsibilities of tenants under extended leases.
In determining whether your household qualifies for an
extended lease, the following definitions apply:
(1) "Handicapped citizen" means a person with a
measurable limitation of mobility due to congenital defect,
disease, or trauma.
(2) "Senior citizen" means a person who is at least
62 years old on the date of this notice.
(3) "Annual income" means the total income from all
sources for all present members of your household for the income
tax year immediately preceding the year in which this notice is
issued. Total income means the same as "gross income" as defined
in Article 81, § 12F-l(a)(6) of the Annotated Code of Maryland.
