THIRD FINANCIAL QUALIFICATIONS POLICY REVISIONS – EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2026<\/p>\n
On December 16, 2025, the Third board of directors adopted revisions to its financial qualifications<\/p>\n
policy (Resolution 03-25-185), allowing the following clarifying changes:<\/p>\n
1<\/p>\n
Under section | (c), the last sentence was clarified as follows: \u201cIf escrow has already closed<\/p>\n
at the time the false or misleading information is discovered, the Applicant will still be<\/p>\n
recognized as an owner; however, the owner will be considered not in good standing and<\/p>\n
may be scheduled for a disciplinary hearing. After a duly noticed disciplinary hearing before<\/p>\n
the Board, the Board may impose a fine based on the Schedule of Monetary Penalties,<\/p>\n
suspend member privileges, and\/or consider legal action.\u201d<\/p>\n
Under Section Il (b), language stating that \u201conly aged accounts (180 days) will be considered\u201d<\/p>\n
was added.<\/p>\n
Section Il (b)(1) was reworded to \u201cIncome from real estate.\u201d<\/p>\n
Section Il (b)(9) was added to read: \u201cEquity in U.S. residential property may be considered.\u201d<\/p>\n
Section IV (b) was clarified by removing language that implied that an applicant’s primary<\/p>\n
residence must be located in California.<\/p>\n
Section IV (e)(9) was clarified by indicating that the board may withhold its approval of a<\/p>\n
guarantor if guarantor guarantees another unit within Laguna Woods Village.<\/p>\n
Section V (b) was reworded to clarify the annual income requirements for multi-unit<\/p>\n
purchases.<\/p>\n
