14. CAN I RESELL MY PROPERTY IN THE FUTURE AND MAKE A PROFIT?
While there is no guarantee of profit from any land sale, history has proven that the prices of all our ranch properties have always increased every year. We believe there are many reasons for this upward trend, including inflation, population growth, a decreasing supply of land, the public's desire for a more natural environment, trend toward movement away from urban areas and the increasing popularity of outdoor recreational activities. We believe the sales prices will continue to increase due to supply and demand for this type of property.
15. IS THERE A PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION OR ANY RESTRICTIONS ON THE PROPERTY?
The Developer has established Diamond B Property Owners Association (DBPOA). The main purpose of the association is to maintain the roads within Diamond B Ranch. Maintaining the access roads within the development will allow our Property Owners good access to their parcels now and in the future and help to enhance and preserve property values.
The Association currently has dues of $264.00 per year, per ranch property. The dues cannot increase more than 10% per year to meet the needs of the Association without a majority vote of all the Property Owners.
In an effort to help protect the natural beauty and to enhance and help protect the future value of all the ranch properties, the Seller/Developer of Diamond B Ranch has recorded some thoughtful protective guidelines (i.e. Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (C.C.R.'s), which are readily available for review upon request.
