MANAGED FOREST LAND: All, or part, of the Property is managed forest land under the Managed Forest Law (MFL). This designation will continue |
101after closing. Buyer is advised as follows: The MFL is a landowner incentive program that encourages sustainable forestry on private woodlands by reducing
102and deferring property taxes. Orders designating lands as managed forest lands remain in effect for 25 or 50 years. When ownership of land enrolled in the
103MFL program changes, the new owner must sign and file a report of the change of ownership on a form provided by the Department of Natural Resources and
104pay a fee. By filing this form, the new owner agrees to the associated MFL management plan and the MFL program rules. The DNR Division of Forestry
105monitors forest management plan compliance. Changes you make to property that is subject to an order designating it as managed forest land, or to its use,
106may jeopardize your benefits under the program or may cause the property to be withdrawn from the program and may result in the assessment of penalties.
107For more information call the local DNR forester or visit http://www.dnr.state.wi.us/.

113REAL ESTATE CONDITION REPORT Wisconsin law requires owners of property which includes 1-4 dwelling units to provide Buyers with a Real Estate
114Condition Report. Excluded from this requirement are sales of property that has never been inhabited, sales exempt from the real estate transfer fee, and sales
115by certain court-appointed fiduciaries (for example, personal representatives who have never occupied the Property). The form of the Report is found in Wis.
116Stat. § 709.03. The law provides: "§ 709.02 Disclosure . . . the owner of the property shall furnish, not later than 10 days after acceptance of the contract of sale
117. . ., to the prospective Buyer of the property a completed copy of the report . . . A prospective Buyer who does not receive a report within the 10 days may,

Page 3 of 10, WB-12
118within 2 business days after the end of that 10 day period, rescind the contract of sale . . . by delivering a written notice of rescission to the owner or the owner's
119agent." Buyer may also have certain rescission rights if a Real Estate Condition Report disclosing defects is furnished before expiration of the 10 days, but after
120the Offer is submitted to Seller. Buyer should review the Report form or consult with an attorney for additional information regarding rescission rights.
121FENCES: Wis. Stat. § 90.03 requires the owners of adjoining properties to keep and maintain legal fences in equal shares where one or both of the properties
122is used and occupied for farming or grazing purposes.
123CAUTION: Consider an agreement addressing responsibility for fences if Property or adjoining land is used and occupied for farming or grazing purposes.
124USE-VALUE ASSESSMENTS: The use-value assessment system values agricultural land based on the income that would be generated from its rental for
125 agricultural use rather than its fair market value. When a person converts agricultural land to a non-agricultural use (e.g., residential or commercial
126development), that person may owe a conversion charge. To obtain more information about the use-value law or conversion charge, contact the Wisconsin
127Department of Revenue's Equalization Section or visit http://www.revenue.wi.gov/.
128FARMLAND PRESERVATION: The early termination of a farmland preservation agreement or removal of land from such an agreement can trigger payment
129of a substantial conversion fee. Contact the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection Division of Agricultural Resource
130Management or visit http://datcp.wi.gov/ for more information.
131CONSERVATION RESERVE PROGRAM (CRP): The CRP encourages farmers, through contracts with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to stop growing
132crops on highly erodible or environmentally sensitive land and instead to plant a protective cover of grass or trees. CRP contracts run for 10 to 15 years, and
133owners receive an annual rent plus one-half of the cost of establishing permanent ground cover. Removing lands from a CRP in breach of a contract can be
134quite costly. For more information call the state Farm Service Agency office or visit http://www.fsa.usda.gov/.
135SHORELAND ZONING ORDINANCES: All counties must adopt shoreland zoning ordinances that meet or are more restrictive than Wis. Admin. Code
136Chapter NR 115. County shoreland zoning ordinances apply to all unincorporated land within 1,000 feet of a navigable lake, pond or flowage or within 300 feet
137of a navigable river or stream and establish standards for building setbacks and height limits, cutting trees and shrubs, lot sizes, water runoff, impervious
138surface standards (that may be exceeded only if a mitigation plan is adopted) and repairs to nonconforming structures. Buyers must conform to any existing
139mitigation plans. For more information call the county zoning office or visit http://www.dnr.state.wi.us/. Buyer is advised to check with the applicable city, town
140or village for additional shoreland zoning restrictions, if any.
