Escrow Agent
shall hold the Deposit and make delivery of the Deposit to the
party entitled thereto under the terms of this Contract.
Escrow Agent shall invest the Deposit in such short-term,
high-grade securities, interest-bearing bank accounts, money market
funds or accounts, bank certificates of deposit or bank repurchase
contracts as Escrow Agent, in its discretion, deems suitable, and
all interest and income thereon shall become part of the Deposit
and shall be remitted to the party entitled to the Deposit pursuant
to this Contract.
2.3.2.

Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment. If
Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such
5-Business Day period, Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such
amount until otherwise directed by written instructions from the
parties to this Contract or a final judgment or arbitrator’s
decision. However, Escrow Agent shall have the right at any
time to deliver the Deposit and interest thereon, if any, with a

deposit to Seller and Purchaser. Upon such deposit, Escrow
Agent shall be relieved and discharged of all further obligations

Purchaser’s obligations set forth in Section 3.5.2
.
2.3.4.
The parties
acknowledge that Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at
their request and for their convenience, and that Escrow Agent
shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties for

negligence. Seller and Purchaser jointly and severally shall
indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against all
costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s
fees, incurred in connection with the
performance of Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except with
respect to actions or omissions taken or suffered by Escrow Agent
in bad faith, in willful disregard of this Contract or involving
gross negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.
2.3.5.
The parties shall
deliver to Escrow Agent an executed copy of this Contract.

attached hereto which shall confirm Escrow Agent’s agreement

the person responsible for closing the transaction within the
meaning of Section 6045(e)(2)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “ Code ”), shall file all
necessary information, reports, returns, and statements regarding
the transaction required by the Code including, but not limited to,
the tax reports required pursuant to Section 6045 of the
Code. Further, Escrow Agent agrees to indemnify and hold
Purchaser, Seller, and their respective attorneys and brokers
harmless from and against any Losses resulting from Escrow
Agent’s failure to file the reports Escrow Agent is required
to file pursuant to this section.
3.1.
Feasibility
Period .
Subject to the terms of Sections 3.3 and 3.4 and the
rights of Tenants under the Leases, from the Effective Date to and
including the date which is 45 days after the Effective Date (the
“ Feasibility Period ”), Purchaser, and
its agents, contractors, engineers, surveyors, attorneys, and
employees (collectively, “ Consultants ”)
shall, at no cost or expense to Seller, have the right from time to
time to enter onto the Property to conduct and make any and all
customary studies, tests, examinations, inquiries, inspections and
investigations of or concerning the Property, review the
Materials and otherwise confirm any and all matters which Purchaser
may reasonably desire to confirm with respect to the Property and
Purchaser’s intended use thereof (collectively, the “
Inspections ”). Provided that Purchaser
is not in default under the terms of this Contract and solely to
the extent necessary to obtain financing for the acquisition of the
Property, Purchaser shall be permitted a one-time 15-day extension
of the Feasibility Period specified in the first sentence of this
Section 3.1 by delivering written notice to Seller no later
than 40 days after the Effective Date.
3.2.
Expiration
of Feasibility Period .
If any of the matters in Section 3.1 or any other
title or survey matters are unsatisfactory to Purchaser for any
reason, or for no reason whatsoever, in Purchaser’s sole and
absolute discretion, then Purchaser shall have the right to
terminate this Contract by giving written notice to that effect to
Seller and Escrow Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. on or before the
date of expiration of the Feasibility Period. If Purchaser
provides such notice, this Contract shall terminate and be of no
further force and effect subject to and except for the Survival
Provisions, and Escrow Agent shall return the Initial Deposit to
Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to provide Seller with written
notice of termination prior to the expiration of the Feasibility
Period, Purchaser’s right to terminate under this Section
3.2 shall be permanently waived and this Contract shall remain
in full force and effect, the Deposit shall be non-refundable, and
Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Property shall be
conditional only as provided in Sections 4.6 , 8.1
and 10.2 .
3.3.
Conduct
of Investigation.
Purchaser shall not permit any mechanics’ or
materialmen’s liens or any other liens to attach to the
Property by reason of the performance of any work or the purchase
of any materials by Purchaser or any other party in connection with
any Inspections conducted by or for Purchaser. Purchaser
shall give reasonable advance notice to Seller prior to any entry
onto the Property and shall permit Seller to have a representative
present during all Inspections conducted at the Property.
Purchaser shall take all reasonable actions and implement all
protections necessary to ensure that all actions taken in
connection with the Inspections, and all equipment, materials and
substances generated, used or brought onto the Property pose no
material threat to the safety of persons, property or the
environment.
3.4.
Purchaser
Indemnification.
3.4.1.
Purchaser shall
indemnify, hold harmless and, if requested by Seller (in
Seller’s sole discretion), defend (with counsel approved by
Seller) Seller, together with Seller’s affiliates, parent and
subsidiary entities, successors, assigns, partners, managers,
members, employees, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders,
counsel, representatives, agents, Property Manager, Regional
Property Manager, and AIMCO (collectively, including Seller,
“ Seller’s
Indemnified Parties ”), from and against
any and all damages, mechanics’ liens, materialmen’s
liens, liabilities, penalties, interest, losses, demands, actions,
causes of action, claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, including the cost of in-house counsel and
appeals) (collectively, “ Losses ”) arising from or
related to Purchaser’s or its Consultants’ entry onto
the Property, and any Inspections or other acts by Purchaser or
Purchaser’s Consultants with respect to the Property during
the Feasibility Period or otherwise.
3.4.2.
Notwithstanding
anything in this Contract to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be
permitted to perform any invasive tests on the Property without
Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld
in Seller’s sole discretion. Further, Seller shall have
the right, without limitation, to disapprove any and all entries,
surveys, tests (including, without limitation, a Phase II
environmental study of the Property), investigations and other
matters that in Seller’s reasonable judgment could result in
any injury to the Property or breach of any contract, or expose
Seller to any Losses or violation of applicable law, or otherwise
adversely affect the Property or Seller’s interest
therein. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to minimize
disruption to Tenants in connection with Purchaser’s or its
Consultants’ activities pursuant to this Section. No
consent by Seller to any such activity shall be deemed to
constitute a waiver by Seller or assumption of liability or risk by
Seller. Purchaser hereby agrees to restore, at
Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, the Property to the same
condition existing immediately prior to Purchaser’s exercise
of its rights pursuant to this Article III. Purchaser shall
maintain and cause its third party consultants to maintain (a)
casualty insurance and commercial general liability insurance with
coverages of not less than $1,000,000.00 for injury or death to any
one person and $3,000,000.00 for injury or death to more than one
person and $1,000,000.00 with respect to property damage, and (b)
worker’s compensation insurance for all of their respective
employees in accordance with the law of the state in which the
Property is located. Purchaser shall deliver proof of the
insurance coverage required pursuant to this Section 3.4.2
to Seller (in the form of a certificate of insurance) prior to the
earlier to occur of (i) Purchaser’s or Purchaser’s
Consultants’ entry onto the Property, or (ii) the expiration
of 5 days after the Effective Date.
3.5.
Property
Materials .
3.5.1.
Within 5 Business
Days after the Effective Date, and to the extent the same exist and
are in Seller’s possession or reasonable control (subject to
Section 3.5.2 ), Seller agrees to make the documents set
forth on Schedule 3.5 (together with any other documents or
information provided by Seller or its agents to Purchaser with
respect to the Property, the “ Materials ”) available at the
Property for review and copying by Purchaser at Purchaser’s
sole cost and expense. In the alternative, at Seller’s
option and within the foregoing time period, Seller may deliver
some or all of the Materials to Purchaser, or make the same
available to Purchaser on a secure web site (Purchaser agrees that
any item to be delivered by Seller under this Contract shall be
deemed delivered to the extent available to Purchaser on such
secured web site). To the extent that Purchaser determines
that any of the Materials have not been made available or delivered
to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.5.1 , Purchaser
shall notify Seller and Seller shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to deliver the same to Purchaser within 5 Business Days
after such notification is received by Seller; provided, however,
that under no circumstances will the Feasibility Period be extended
and Purchaser’s sole remedy will be to terminate this
Contract pursuant to Section 3.2 .
3.5.2.
In providing the
Materials to Purchaser, other than Seller’s Representations,
Seller makes no representation or warranty, express, written, oral,
statutory, or implied, and all such representations and warranties
are hereby expressly excluded and disclaimed. All Materials
are provided for informational purposes only and, together with all
Third-Party Reports, shall be returned by Purchaser to Seller (or
the destruction thereof shall be certified in writing by Purchaser
to Seller) as a condition to return of the Deposit to Purchaser if
this Contract is terminated for any reason. Recognizing that
the Materials delivered or made available by Seller pursuant to
this Contract may not be complete or constitute all of such
documents which are in Seller’s possession or control, but
are those that are readily and reasonably available to Seller,
Purchaser shall not in any way be entitled to rely upon the
completeness or accuracy of the Materials and will instead in all
instances rely exclusively on its own Inspections and Consultants
with respect to all matters which it deems relevant to its decision
to acquire, own and operate the Property.
3.5.3.
In addition to
the items set forth on Schedule 3.5 , no later than 5
Business Days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to
Purchaser (or otherwise make available to Purchaser as provided
under Section 3.5.1 ) the most recent rent roll for the
Property, which rent roll is that which Seller uses in the ordinary
course of operating the Property (the “ Rent Roll ”). Seller makes
no representations or warranties regarding the Rent Roll other than
the express representation set forth in Section 6.1.5
.
3.5.4.
In addition to
the items set forth on Schedule 3.5 , no later than 5
Business Days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to
Purchaser (or otherwise make available to Purchaser as provided
under Section 3.5.1 ) a list of all current Property
Contracts (the “ Property Contracts List ”). Seller makes
no representations or warranties regarding the Property Contracts
List other than the express representations set forth in Section
6.1.6 .
3.6.
Property
Contracts .
On or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period,
Purchaser may deliver written notice to Seller (the “
Property Contracts Notice ”) specifying any
Property Contracts which Purchaser desires
to terminate at the Closing (the “ Terminated
Contracts ”); provided that (a) the effective date of
such termination on or after Closing shall be subject to the
express terms of such Terminated Contracts, (b) if any such
Property Contract cannot by its terms be terminated at Closing, it
shall be assumed by Purchaser and not be a Terminated Contract, and
(c) to the extent that any such Terminated Contract requires
payment of a penalty, premium, or damages, including liquidated
damages, for cancellation, Purchaser shall be solely responsible
for the payment of any such cancellation fees, penalties or
damages, including liquidated damages. If Purchaser fails to
deliver the Property Contracts Notice on or before the expiration
of the Feasibility Period, there shall be no Terminated Contracts
and Purchaser shall assume all Property Contracts at the
Closing. If Purchaser delivers the Property Contracts Notice
to Seller on or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period,
then Seller shall deliver a vendor termination notice (in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F ) for each Terminated Contract
informing the vendor(s) of the termination of such Terminated
Contract as of the Closing Date (subject to any delay in the
effectiveness of such termination pursuant to the express terms of
each applicable Terminated Contract) (the “ Vendor
Terminations ”). Seller shall sign the Vendor
Terminations and deliver them to all applicable vendors. To
the extent that any Property Contract to be assigned to Purchaser
requires vendor consent, then, prior to the Closing, Purchaser may
attempt to obtain from each applicable vendor a consent (each a
“ Required Assignment Consent ”) to such
assignment. Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and, if
requested by Seller (in Seller’s sole discretion), defend
(with counsel approved by Seller) Seller’s Indemnified
Parties from and against any and all Losses arising from or related
to Purchaser’s failure to obtain any Required Assignment
Consent.
4.1.
Title
Documents .
Within 10 days after the Effective Date, Seller shall cause
to be delivered to Purchaser a standard form commitment or
preliminary title report (“ Title Commitment
”) to provide an owner’s title insurance policy for the
Property, using the most recent standard form promulgated by the
Texas State Department of Insurance in accordance with the Texas
Title Act for use in writing title insurance in the State of Texas,
in an amount equal to the Purchase Price (the “ Title
Policy ”), together with copies of all instruments
identified as exceptions therein (together with the Title
Commitment, referred to herein as the “ Title
Documents ”). Seller shall be responsible only
for payment of the basic premium for the Title Policy.
Purchaser shall be solely responsible for payment of all other
costs relating to procurement of the Title Commitment, the Title
Policy, and any requested endorsements.
4.2.
Survey

Objection
and Response Process .
On or before the date which is 30 days after the Effective
Date (the “ Objection Deadline ”),
Purchaser shall give written notice (the “ Objection
Notice ”) to the attorneys for Seller of any matter
set forth in the Title Documents and the
Survey to which Purchaser objects (the “
Objections ”). If Purchaser fails to
tender an Objection Notice on or before the Objection Deadline,
Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved and irrevocably waived
any objections to any matters covered by the Title Documents and
the Survey. On or before 35 days after the Effective Date
(the “ Response Deadline ”), Seller may,
in Seller’s sole discretion, give Purchaser notice (the
“ Response Notice ”) of those Objections
which Seller is willing to cure, if any. Seller shall be
entitled to reasonable adjournments of the Closing Date to cure the
Objections. If Seller fails to deliver a Response Notice by
the Response Deadline, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not
to cure or otherwise resolve any matter set forth in the Objection
Notice. If Purchaser is dissatisfied with the Response Notice
or the lack of Response Notice, Purchaser may, as its exclusive
remedy, exercise its right to terminate this Contract prior to the
expiration of the Feasibility Period in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.2 . If Purchaser fails to
timely exercise such right, Purchaser shall be deemed to accept the
Title Documents and Survey with resolution, if any, of the
Objections set forth in the Response Notice (or if no Response
Notice is tendered, without any resolution of the Objections) and
without any reduction or abatement of the Purchase Price.

Existing
Deed of Trust .
It is understood and agreed that, whether or not Purchaser
gives an Objection Notice with respect thereto, any deeds of trust

Exceptions, whether Purchaser gives further written notice of such
or not, and shall be paid off, satisfied, discharged and/or cured
from proceeds of the Purchase Price at Closing.
4.6.
Subsequently
Disclosed Exceptions .
If at any time after the expiration of the Feasibility
Period, any update to the Title Commitment discloses any additional
item that materially adversely affects title to the Property which
was not disclosed on any version of or update to the Title
Commitment delivered to Purchaser during the Feasibility Period
(the “ New Exception ”), Purchaser shall
have a period of 5 days from the date of its receipt of such update
(the “ New Exception Review Period ”) to
review and notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s approval or disapproval of the New
Exception. If Purchaser disapproves of the New Exception,
Seller may, in Seller’s sole discretion, notify Purchaser as
to whether it is willing to cure the New Exception. If Seller
elects to cure the New Exception, Seller shall be entitled to
reasonable adjournments of the Closing Date to cure the New
Exception. If Seller fails to deliver a notice to Purchaser
within 3 days after the expiration of the New Exception Review
Period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the New
Exception. If Purchaser is dissatisfied with Seller’s
response, or lack thereof, Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy
elect either: (i) to terminate this Contract, in which event
the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser or (ii) to
waive the New Exception and proceed with the transactions
contemplated by this Contract, in which event Purchaser shall be
deemed to have approved the New Exception. If Purchaser fails
to notify Seller of its election to terminate this Contract in
accordance with the foregoing sentence within 6 days after the
expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Purchaser shall be
deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any
objections to the New Exception.

the Closing Date, Seller being charged or credited, as appropriate,
for all of same attributable to the period up to the Closing Date
(and credited for any amounts paid by Seller attributable to the
period on or after the Closing Date, if assumed by Purchaser) and
Purchaser being responsible for, and credited or charged, as the
case may be, for all of the same attributable to the period on and
after the Closing Date. Seller shall prepare a proration
schedule (the “ Proration Schedule ”) of the adjustments
described in this Section 5.4 prior to Closing.
5.4.2.
Operating
Expenses . All of the operating,
maintenance, taxes (other than real estate taxes), and other
expenses incurred in operating the Property that Seller customarily
pays, and any other costs incurred in the ordinary course of
business for the management and operation of the Property, shall be
prorated on an accrual basis. Seller shall pay all such
expenses that accrue prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser shall
pay all such expenses that accrue from and after the Closing
Date.
5.4.3.
Utilities
. The final
readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible
as of the Closing Date, in which case Seller shall pay all such
bills as of the Closing Date and no proration shall be made at the
Closing with respect to utility bills. Otherwise, a proration
shall be made based upon the parties’ reasonable good faith
estimate. Seller shall be entitled to the return of any
deposit(s) posted by it with any utility company, and Seller shall
notify each utility company serving the Property to terminate
Seller’s account, effective as of noon on the Closing
Date.
5.4.4.
Real Estate
Taxes . Any real estate ad
valorem or similar taxes for the Property, or any installment of
assessments payable in installments which installment is payable in
the calendar year of Closing, shall be prorated to the date of
Closing, based upon actual days involved. The proration of
real property taxes or installments of assessments shall be based
upon the assessed valuation and tax rate figures (assuming payment
at the earliest time to allow for the maximum possible discount)
for the year in which the Closing occurs to the extent the same are
available; provided, however, that in the event that actual figures
(whether for the assessed value of the Property or for the tax
rate) for the year of Closing are not available at the Closing
Date, the proration shall be made using figures from the preceding
year (assuming payment at the earliest time to allow for the
maximum possible discount). Except as set forth in Section
5.4.12 , the proration of Property Taxes or installments of
assessments shall be final and not subject to re-adjustment after
Closing.
5.4.5.
Property
Contracts . Purchaser shall
assume at Closing the obligations under the Property Contracts
assumed by Purchaser; however, operating expenses shall be prorated
under Section 5.4.2 .
5.4.6.1
All collected rent (whether fixed
monthly rentals, additional rentals, escalation rentals,
retroactive rentals, operating cost pass-throughs or other sums and
charges payable by Tenants under the Leases), income and expenses
from any portion of the Property shall be prorated as of the
Closing Date. Purchaser shall receive all collected rent and
income attributable to dates from and after the Closing Date.
Seller shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to
dates prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no prorations shall be made in relation to either (a)
non-delinquent rents which have not been collected as of the
Closing Date, or (b) delinquent rents existing, if any, as of the
Closing Date (the foregoing (a) and (b) referred to herein as the
“ Uncollected Rents ”). In adjusting for Uncollected
Rents, no adjustments shall be made in Seller’s favor for
rents which have accrued and are unpaid as of the Closing, but
Purchaser shall pay Seller such accrued Uncollected Rents as and
when collected by Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to bill Tenants
of the Property for all Uncollected Rents and to take reasonable
actions to collect Uncollected Rents. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Purchaser’s obligation to collect Uncollected
Rents shall be limited to Uncollected Rents of not more than 90
days past due, and Purchaser’s collection of rents shall be
applied, first, towards current rent due and owing under the
Leases, and, second, to Uncollected Rents. After the Closing,
Seller shall continue to have the right, but not the obligation, in
its own name, to demand payment of and to collect Uncollected Rents
owed to Seller by any Tenant, which right shall include, without
limitation, the right to continue or commence legal actions or
proceedings against any Tenant and the delivery of the Leases
Assignment shall not constitute a waiver by Seller of such right;
provided however, that the foregoing right of Seller shall be
limited to actions seeking monetary damages and, in no event, shall
Seller seek to evict any Tenants in any action to collect
Uncollected Rents. Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Seller
in connection with all efforts by Seller to collect such
Uncollected Rents and to take all steps, whether before or after
the Closing Date, as may be necessary to carry out the intention of
the foregoing, including, without limitation, the delivery to
Seller, within 7 days after a written request, of any relevant
books and records (including, without limitation, rent statements,
receipted bills and copies of tenant checks used in payment of such
rent), the execution of any
and all consents or other
documents, and the undertaking of any act reasonably necessary for
the collection of such Uncollected Rents by Seller; provided,
however, that Purchaser’s obligation to cooperate with Seller
pursuant to this sentence shall not obligate Purchaser to terminate
any Tenant lease with an existing Tenant or evict any existing
Tenant from the Property.
5.4.6.2
At Closing, Purchaser shall
receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to
the received and unapplied balance of all cash (or cash equivalent)
Tenant Deposits, including, but not limited to, security, damage,
pet or other refundable deposits paid by any of the Tenants to
secure their respective obligations under the Leases, together, in
all cases, with any interest payable to the Tenants thereunder as
may be required by their respective Tenant Lease or state law (the
“ Tenant Security Deposit Balance ”). Any cash (or cash equivalents)
held by Seller which constitutes the Tenant Security Deposit
Balance shall be retained by Seller in exchange for the foregoing
credit against the Purchase Price and shall not be transferred by
Seller pursuant to this Contract (or any of the documents delivered
at Closing), but the obligation with respect to the Tenant Security
Deposit Balance nonetheless shall be assumed by Purchaser.
The Tenant Security Deposit Balance shall not include any
non-refundable deposits or fees paid by Tenants to Seller, either
pursuant to the Leases or otherwise.
5.4.7.
Insurance
. No
proration shall be made in relation to insurance premiums and
insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser. Seller
shall have the risk of loss of the Property until 11:59 p.m. the
day prior to the Closing Date, after which time the risk of loss
shall pass to Purchaser and Purchaser shall be responsible for
obtaining its own insurance thereafter.
5.4.8.
Employees
. All of
Seller’s and Seller’s manager’s on-site employees
shall have their employment at the Property terminated as of the
Closing Date.
5.4.9.

any transfer, sales, use, gross receipts or similar taxes, the cost
of recording any instruments required to discharge any liens or
encumbrances against the Property, any premiums or fees required to
be paid by Purchaser with respect to the Title Policy pursuant to
Section 4.1 , and one-half of the customary closing costs of
the Escrow Agent. Seller shall pay the base premium for the
Title Policy to the extent required by Section 4.1 , and
one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow
Agent.
5.4.10.

5.4.11.

.
Possession of the Property, subject to the Leases, Property
Contracts, other than Terminated Contracts, and Permitted
Exceptions, shall be delivered to Purchaser at the Closing upon
release from escrow of all items to be delivered by Purchaser
pursuant to Section 5.3 . To the extent reasonably
available to Seller, originals or copies of the Leases and Property
Contracts, lease files, warranties, guaranties, operating manuals,
keys to the property, and Seller’s books and records (other
than proprietary information) (collectively, “
Seller’s Property-Related
Files and Records ”) regarding the
Property shall be made available to Purchaser at the Property after
the Closing. Purchaser agrees, for a period of not less than
one (1) year after the Closing (the “ Records Hold Period ”), to (a) provide and
allow Seller reasonable access to Seller’s Property-Related
Files and Records for purposes of inspection and copying thereof,
and (b) reasonably maintain and preserve Seller’s
Property-Related Files and
Records. If
at any time after the Records Hold Period, Purchaser desires to
dispose of Seller’s Property-Related Files and Records,
Purchaser must first provide Seller prior written notice (the
“ Records Disposal
Notice ”). Seller shall
have a period of 30 days after receipt of the Records Disposal
Notice to enter the Property (or such other location where such
records are then stored) and remove or copy those of Seller’s
Property-Related Files and Records that Seller desires to
retain.
5.4.12.
Tax
Appeals . Prior to Closing, Seller
agrees to file an appeal (the “ Tax Appeal ”) with respect to
real estate ad valorem or other similar property taxes applicable
to the Property assessed during the Tax Year in which Closing
occurs (the “ Property Taxes ”).
