AND ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS
THIS AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE AND SALE AND ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS
("Agreement") is made and entered into as of May 17, 2006 (`Effective Date") by and between
LORENZO PEREYRA AND SANDRA PEREYRA (collectively, "Seller") and the LA
QUINTA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, a public body corporate and politic (`Buyer").
RECITALS:
A. Seller is the owner of that certain real property located in the City of La Quinta,
County of Riverside, State of California, commonly known as 46178 Dune Palms Road (APN
649-040-012), more particularly described in the legal description attached hereto as Exhibit "A"
(the "Real Property") improved with a residential dwelling and a swimming pool, spa, and a
Cabana with a separate bath (the "Improvements").
B. Buyer desires to purchase the Property (as that term is defined below) from Seller,
and Seller desires to sell the Property to Buyer, on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
C. On February 27, 2006, Buyer issued an offer letter to Seller indicating Buyer's
intention to acquire the Property for the public purpose of developing the Real Property as an
affordable housing project. This action will cause Seller to become a displaced person pursuant
to the California Relocation Assistance Act (Cal. Govt. Code § 7260 et seq.) and Buyer is
complying with the provisions of the Relocation Assistance Act.
AGREEMENT:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and mutual covenants
herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. PROPERTY. Subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement,
and for the consideration herein set forth, Seller hereby agrees to sell to Buyer and Buyer hereby
agrees to purchase from Seller the Real Property and Seller hereby agrees to sell and Buyer
hereby agrees to buy the following:
1.1 Improvements. Seller's interest in and to the Improvements and all tenements,
hereditaments and appurtenances thereto, subject to the Permitted Exceptions (as that term is
defined in Section 8.1);
1.2 Fixtures and Personal Property. Any and all fixtures and fittings that are attached
to the Real Property and Improvements, all existing electrical, mechanical, lighting, plumbing
and heating fixtures, ceiling fans, fireplace inserts, gas logs and grates, solar systems, built-in
appliances, window and door screens, awnings, shutters, window coverings, attached floor
coverings, television antennas, private integrated telephone systems, air coolers/conditioners,
pool/spa equipment, garage door openers/remote controls, mailbox, in -ground landscaping,
2156/015610-0090
703341.01 a05/17/06 -1
trees/shrubs, water softeners, water purifiers, and security systems/alarms (collectively, the
"Fixtures and Personal Property"). However, Buyer and Seller agree that Seller may remove the
following items in the home: (1) cabinets in the kitchen; (2) the refrigerator and microwave; (3)
a bookcase in the den and (4) several plants described as a palm tree and lemon tree, provided
that following removal of these plants, the Seller shall fill in the holes. Seller shall use due care
in removing these items and shall not cause waste to the Real Property in removing such items.
The Real Property, the Improvements, and the Personal Property are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Property."
2. PURCHASE PRICE.
2.1 Amount. The purchase price which Seller agrees to accept and Buyer agrees to
pay for the Property is the sum of THREE HUNDRED AND NINETY THOUSAND
DOLLARS ($390,000.00) ("Purchase Price"). The parties agree that with the exception of
relocation benefits referenced in the Section 3, below, the Purchase Price reflects the full
payment that Seller will receive from Buyer for the Property.
2.2 Payment of Purchase Price. On or before 5:00 p.m. on the business day preceding
the "Closing Date" (as that tern is defined in Section 6.1) or such earlier time as required by
"Escrow Holder" in order to close "Escrow" (as those terms are defined in Section 4.1) on the
Closing Date, Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Holder the Purchase Price.
3. RELOCATION ASSISTANCE. In addition to the Purchase Price, Buyer and Seller
agree that Seller shall be entitle to the relocation assistance pursuant to California Relocation
Assistance Act (Cal. Govt. Code Sections 7260 et seq.; Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Guidelines, California Administrative Cove Title 25), in accordance with the terms
and amounts in the relocation benefit letter that will be issued by RSG. For reference purposes
only, it is anticipated that the Seller shall receive relocation assistance benefits in the amount of
$50,750, which benefits shall be paid pursuant to the eligibility letter and not through this
escrow.
4. ESCROW.
4.1 Opening of Escrow. Closing of the sale of the Property shall take place through
an escrow ("Escrow") to be established within three (3) business days after the execution of this
Agreement by the parties hereto, with Four Seasons Escrow, Inc. ("Escrow Holder") at its office
located at 47-350 Washington Avenue, Suite 101, La Quinta, California 92253. The opening of
the Escrow (the "Opening of Escrow") shall be deemed to be the date that a fully executed copy
of this Agreement is delivered to the Escrow Holder. Escrow Holder is instructed to notify
Buyer and Seller in writing of the date of the Opening of Escrow.
4.2 Escrow Instructions. This Agreement, once deposited in Escrow, shall constitute
the joint escrow instructions of Buyer and Seller to Escrow Holder. Additionally, if Escrow
Holder so requires, Buyer and Seller agree to execute the form of escrow instructions that
Escrow Holder customarily requires in real property escrows administered by it. In the event of
any conflict or inconsistency between Escrow Holder's standard instructions and the provisions
of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall supersede and be controlling. The
2156/015610-0090
703341.01 a05/17/06 -2-
parties additionally agree to the Escrow Holder's standard terms, a copy of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit E and to the additional supplemental instructions contained in Exhibit F.
5. TITLE MATTERS. Buyer shall obtain a preliminary title report prepared by Old
Republic Title Company ("Title Company"), located at 25240 Hancock Avenue, Suite 330,
Murrieta, California 92562, describing the state of title of the Property together with copies of all
underlying documents and a map of plotted easements (collectively, the "Preliminary Title
Report"). Buyer may, at its sole cost and expense, obtain a current survey of the Property (the
"Survey"). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to remove
all monetary encumbrances against the Property excluding non -delinquent real property taxes
(except as otherwise provided for in Section 9 below). Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of any
objections Buyer may have to title exceptions contained in the Preliminary Title Report or
matters shown on the Survey (if Buyer has obtained) no later than the date which is fifteen (15)
days after the later of (i) its receipt of the Preliminary Title Report or (ii) its receipt of the Survey
("Buyer's Objection Notice"). Buyer's approval or disapproval of the matters set forth in the
Preliminary Title Report (and the Survey, if applicable) may be granted or withheld in Buyer's
sole and absolute discretion. Buyer's failure to provide Seller with a Buyer's Objection Notice
within said period shall constitute Buyer's approval of all exceptions to title shown on the
Preliminary Title Report and all matters shown on the Survey (if Buyer has obtained). Seller
shall have a period of five (5) days after receipt of Buyer's Objection Notice in which to deliver
written notice to Buyer ("Seller's Notice") of Seller's election to either (i) agree to remove the
objectionable items on the Preliminary Title Report or Survey prior to the Close of Escrow, or
(ii) decline to remove any such title exceptions or Survey matters and terminate Escrow and the
obligations of Buyer and Seller to purchase and sell the Property under this Agreement. Seller's
failure to provide Buyer with Seller's Notice within said period shall constitute Seller's election
to remove the objectionable items on the Preliminary Title Report. If Seller notifies Buyer of its
election to terminate rather than remove the objectionable items on the Preliminary Title Report
or Survey, Buyer shall have the right, by written notice delivered to Seller within five (5) days
after Buyer's receipt of Seller's Notice, to agree to accept the Property subject to the
objectionable items, in which event Seller's election to terminate shall be of no effect, and Buyer
shall take title at the Close of Escrow subject to such objectionable items without any adjustment
to or credit against the Purchase Price. All exceptions to title shown on the Preliminary Title
Report, other than those which Seller may agree to remove pursuant to this Section 4.2, shall be
deemed to have been approved by Buyer unless Seller is notified otherwise in writing.
Upon the issuance of any amendment or supplement to the Preliminary Title
Report which adds additional exceptions, including any survey exceptions, the foregoing right of
review and approval shall also apply to said amendment or supplement. The process set forth
above for Buyer's review and Seller's response shall apply to any review and response with
respect to any amendment or supplement to the Preliminary Title Report, and the Closing shall
be extended for such period as is necessary to allow for that review and response process to be
completed.
