Lot Agreement Terms
Rental of Space
The Owner (Shady Acres RV Park / 3208 W Main RV Park LLC) leases the designated lot or storage space (“Space”) to the Renter, subject to the terms of this Agreement. The Owner is not engaged in the business of storing personal property and shall not be considered a bailee or custodian. Owner's employees are not authorized to handle Renter property or perform services. Any assistance provided is solely at the Renter’s request and at their own risk.
Term of Occupancy
This Agreement begins on the date of execution and continues on a month-to-month basis. Either party may terminate the Agreement with a minimum of fifteen (15) days' written notice before the end of the month. Rent is not prorated for early move-out. Property left on the premises after termination will be deemed abandoned and may be disposed of without notice or liability.
Rent and Late Fees
Monthly rent is due on the first day of each month. A late fee of $50 will be charged for payments received after 4:30 p.m. on the 5th day of the month. Returned checks will incur a $35 fee. Rent may be paid by check, money order, or credit/debit card. The Owner may increase rent with a 30-day written notice. Nonpayment for 30 consecutive days may result in eviction and disposal of property through public auction at the Renter’s expense. All rent payments are non-refundable.
Liability and Insurance
Owner is not responsible for any loss or damage to Renter’s property caused by weather, theft, fire, vandalism, pests, or any other cause. The Owner does not insure Renter property. Renters are strongly advised to obtain their own insurance to cover all personal belongings. The Owner makes no guarantees regarding on-site security measures. Any cameras, lighting, or fencing are provided solely for the Owner’s convenience and may be modified or removed at any time. The Renter agrees to hold the Owner harmless for any damage, loss, or injury occurring on the premises.
Use of Space
The rented space must be used for lawful purposes only. The Renter may not store hazardous, flammable, perishable, or illegal items. Active use of the space—such as mechanical work, fabrication, or business operations—is strictly prohibited. All items must be kept within the designated space. Items placed outside the assigned lot may be removed or disposed of by the Owner without notice. Renters may not make alterations, install permanent fixtures, or display signage without written permission from the Owner.
Owner’s Right of Access
With reasonable notice, the Owner or its agents may enter the space to inspect, repair, maintain, or improve the premises. In the event of an emergency (e.g., fire, flood, or immediate risk), the Owner may enter the space without prior notice and may relocate Renter property if necessary.
Notice Requirements
All notices under this Agreement must be provided in writing and delivered either by hand or mailed via certified mail to the address on file for the
Tenant or Owner. Renters are responsible for keeping their contact and mailing information up to date. Notices sent by mail will be considered
delivered three (3) business days after mailing.
Nonpayment and Lien Rights
If rent or any charges remain unpaid for more than ten (10) days, the Owner may deny access to the space and begin enforcement procedures in
accordance with New Mexico law. The Owner has a lien on all property stored in the space for all unpaid rent, fees, and costs. If the account remains
unpaid for 30 consecutive days, the Owner may dispose of or auction the contents. Renter will be responsible for all costs, including advertising and
sale fees.
Legal and Collection Fees
If the Owner must take legal action to enforce this Agreement, recover unpaid rent, or remove the Renter, the Renter agrees to pay all reasonable
attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection fees incurred by the Owner.
