All measurements and boundaries are approximate. If the property sells in the entirety, it will be conveyed according to the survey prepared by Tanner and Associates, which is available on the RGA website.

The cost of the survey will be paid by the Purchasers at closing, at a cost not to exceed $.35 per linear foot with no charge for existing boundary lines and any shared in interior will be spilt by each purchaser.

The successful bidder shall be required to sign the Agreement and pay earnest money equal to ten percent (10%) of the total purchase price, as ("Earnest Money Deposit") immediately following the auction. The Earnest Money Deposit will include the Bidder Deposit, with the balance being in the form of a personal or company check, and is due immediately after being declared the Purchaser. Earnest Money Deposit check shall be made payable to Straughan & Straughan. If, for any reason Buyer fails to execute The Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement or pay the deposit immediately following the auction, Seller has sole discretion to: (a) pursue all legal and equitable remedies available against Buyer, or (b) declare the Buyer's bid to be immediately forfeited, null, and void, without any requirement of notice, and immediately re-sell the Property to another buyer. The Earnest Money Deposit will be held in a non-interestbearing escrow account under the control of Straughan & Straughan pending the Closing and in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. No disbursement will be made from these escrow accounts until closing or as otherwise set forth in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. In the event a Purchaser fails to close and pay his or her balance when due, the Deposit may be retained by Seller as liquidated damages, in addition to any other remedies available to Seller, and will be distributed in accordance to a separate agreement between Seller and Auction Company.
