Abstract

The Act reduces the reversionary period for secured property from twenty to seven years. The expiration period remains at twenty years when the parties have expressly indicated in the conveyance an intent to create a perpetual or indefinite security interest, unless the term of the debt exceeds twenty years. In addition, the Act requires notice of acceptable land uses and potential nuisances to purchasers of property zoned or adjacent to agricultural or forestry land.
