Buying and Selling in Spring Mills

SELLING PROPERTY IN SPRING MILLS

 

When it's time to sell your Spring Mills property, please be aware of the following guidelines, and make sure your real estate agent is aware of them:

  • One "FOR SALE" sign may be placed only on the property that is for sale.  Directional signs placed in other locations (such as at the nearest corner) are not permitted, and will be removed.

  • "Open House" signs may be placed at intersections, but must be removed immediately when the open house is over.

  • Make sure that all bidders receive a copy of the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions.  To obtain copies, send an email request to info@springmills.org.

  • If there is a lien on your property due to any fine for a violation of the covenants or nonpayment of Association dues, this must be paid before your closing. You must pay the lien and obtain a signed release from the Association.

  • If you vacate your home before it is sold, please remember that it is YOUR responsibility to make sure it is maintained according to the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, until it is sold.  The property must be kept in a neat and orderly condition, including lawn mowing, exterior repairs, etc. If your agent is taking care of this for you, it is still YOUR responsibility to ensure that it is being done.
