32.5 No Member shall be entitled to use the services of any sales agent or rental agent for the sale and/or lease of any Unit, or any right in and to any Unit within the Development other than that of an accredited estate agent vetted by the Association. Any sales or rental agent will be entitled to make application to the Association to be accredited, which accreditation process will ensure that the relevant agent complies with applicable legislation, regulatory requirements and requirements determined by the Trustees to operate within the Development.
32.6 Should a Member fail to comply with the provisions of this clause, the Association shall be entitled, at its discretion, to either
(i) refuse to issue the requisite levy clearance certificate in respect of a resale of the relevant Unit/s as contemplated in clause 32.7 or
(ii) withhold consent to lease the Unit/s, until such stage as the relevant Member complies with the
provisions hereof.
32.7 Should a Member wish to sell his Unit privately (i.e., they do not wish to use the services of an accredited estate agent), such Member shall obtain the approved sale agreement from the Association and an administrative fee may be levied by the Association in respect thereof, as determined by the Trustees. The Member shall submit such sale agreement to the Association for vetting purposes together with their request for a levy clearance certificate as contemplated in clause 32.6. If it is found that the Member has utilised an unapproved sale agreement and/or un-vetted estate agent, no clearance certificate will be issued.
32.8 Whenever a Unit within the Development is sold by a Member to a third party, and subsequently to any successor-in title, such Member or the successor-in-title, as the case may be, shall pay 1% (one percent) of the then selling price of the unit to a levy stabilisation fund to be administered by the Association and utilised for the administration of the Development Scheme(s) and to keep Levies at a reasonable level (especially during the first years of the Development). It is recorded that where an accredited estate agency is utilised, such agency will be responsible for the payment of the aforementioned fee which shall be built into their commission structure.
33. The Schedule of Penalty Levies and Conduct Transgression Levies is attached hereto marked “D” and may be updated from time to time by the Trustees when deemed necessary
