Effective July 1, 2008

     Upon entering Uplands Retirement Village each new member pays a one time Membership Fee totaling $8,000. The Membership Fee provides eligibility for all services and accommodations offered by Uplands and establishes priority for available accommodations. In addition, member(s) pay a single Residential Unit Fee of $20,000* per unit occupied for a home and condo or $10,000 per unit occupied for an apartment. Each of the following types of accommodations counts as a single residential unit: Life Lease Home or Building Lot*; a Life Lease Condominium; an Efficiency, One Bedroom or Two Bedroom Rental Apartment.

EXAMPLE	Living in Home or Condo	One Person	Two Persons in same Unit
	Membership Fees	$8,000	$16,000
	Residential Unit Fee for home or condo*	$20,000	$20,000

     Five hundred dollars ($500) of the Membership Fee must be submitted with each completed application. On your first day of residency or upon securing a residential unit by lease, the balance ($7,500 per person) of the membership fee is due and payable. None of the membership fee is refundable. The residential unit fee is due at the time you secure a residential unit by lease. This fee will be refunded on a prorated basis (no interst paid) if you terminate your residency in leased property for any reason within the first 24 months of payment. After 24 months no refunds are made.

     Your residential unit fee assures you a place to live at Uplands. You may transfer to any accommodation with no additional residential unit fee being charged, provided only one unit is secured at any given time.

Life Lease Homes, Building Lots and Condominiums

     Uplands members who wish to live independently have a choice of buying an existing Life Lease home or condominium or building a home on one of a limited number of surveyed lots within the community.
     Surveyed lots are available for new home construction upon payment of the residential unit fee and completion of a Life Lease Agreement.  Existing Life Lease homes and condominiums are available for purchase at 100% of Certified Market Comparison Appraisal. 
      The Life Lease Agreement gives Uplands the first option to repurchase an existing or newly built home within the first seven years for 76% of its appraised value at the time of the cancellation of the Life Lease Agreement.  After seven years, the buyback percentage is prorated at an additional 2% per year to Uplands until a 50%-50% division is achieved at 20 years and in effect for the balance of the Life Lease Agreement.  
     Life Lease home owners and condominium owners are responsible for maintenance, taxes, and insurance of the premises. Condominium owners, however, pay an additional monthly charge of $75 which provides for outside maintenance such as mowing and trimming. Some homes and all condos are provided sewer services and will be charged $25 per month for these services.  New home construction in areas serviced by Uplands waste water treatment plant will be charged a $2,000 hook up fee.
