MANAGED FOREST LAND: All, or part, of the Property is managed forest land under the Managed Forest Law (MFL). This designation will continue

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106may jeopardize your benefits under the program or may cause the property to be withdrawn from the program and may result in the assessment of penalties.

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,

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.

141DEFINITIONS

142 ACTUAL RECEIPT: "Actual Receipt" means that a Party, not the Party's recipient for delivery, if any, has the document or written notice physically in the

300 WARNING: Municipal and zoning ordinances, recorded building and use restrictions, covenants and easements may prohibit certain

301improvements or uses and therefore should be reviewed, particularly if Buyer contemplates making improvements to Property or a use other than

302the current use. If Buyer is considering development of the Property, Buyer should consider restrictions on development if Property is zoned

303agricultural. Buyer should consider the need for feasibility studies, estimates for utility and infrastructure installations and zoning variances, which

304may be required before certain future development may be possible. Contingencies may be added to this Offer to address these development

305requirements, if applicable.

306 TITLE EVIDENCE: Seller shall give evidence of title in the form of an owner's policy of title insurance in the amount of the purchase price on a current ALTA

307form issued by an insurer licensed to write title insurance in Wisconsin. Seller shall pay all costs of providing title evidence to Buyer. Buyer shall pay all costs of

308providing title evidence required by Buyer's lender.

309 GAP ENDORSEMENT: Seller shall provide a "gap" endorsement or equivalent gap coverage at (Seller's) (Buyer's) STRIKE ONE ("Seller's" if neither

311deed is recorded, subject to the title insurance policy exclusions and exceptions, provided the title company will issue the endorsement. If a gap endorsement

312or equivalent gap coverage is not available, Buyer may give written notice that title is not acceptable for closing (see lines 317-322).

days

319

 

days ("5" if left blank) from Buyer's delivery of the notice stating title objections, to deliver notice to Buyer stating Seller's election to remove the

320objections by the time set for closing. In the event that Seller is unable to remove said objections, Buyer may deliver to Seller written notice waiving the

321objections, and the time for closing shall be extended accordingly. If Buyer does not waive the objections, Buyer shall deliver written notice of termination and
