Arkansas Time-Share Interest Transfer Service Bond

May 14, 2021

|

A new Arkansas bill that was recently enacted will require a surety bond of time-share interest transfer services providers.

Details on the New Requirement

The new bill, titled AR H 1834 amends the Arkansas Time Share Act by requiring a time-share interest transfer services provider to provide the Arkansas Real Estate Commission with, among other things, a bond in an amount determined by the commission, but can't be larger than $25,000. The bond will be required to obtain a license.

This amended language and subsequent bond requirement does not apply to to a broker that maintained a place of business inside the state before the enactment of this legislation.
