1. The developer or the association may levy and enforce a reasonable assessment upon any time share in accordance with the time-share instrument, which is a debt of the owner thereof at the time the assessment is made. The amount of the assessment plus any other charges thereon, such as interest, costs, attorney’s fees and penalties, as may be provided for in the time-share instrument is a lien upon the time share assessed when the developer or the association causes to be recorded with the county recorder of the county in which the project is located a notice of assessment, which must state:

(a)The amount of the assessment and such other charges thereon as may be authorized by the time-share instrument;

(b)A description of the time share against which the lien has been assessed; and

(c)The name of the owner.

Ê The notice must be signed by an authorized representative of the developer or the association or as otherwise provided in the time-share instrument. Upon payment of the assessment and charges in connection with which the notice has been so recorded, or other satisfaction thereof, the developer or the association shall cause to be recorded a further notice stating the satisfaction and the release of the lien thereof.

2. The lien is prior to all other liens recorded after the recordation of the notice of assessment except that the time-share instrument may provide for the subordination thereof to any other liens and encumbrances. Unless sooner satisfied and released or the enforcement thereof initiated as provided in subsection 3, the lien expires and has no further force or effect 1 year after the date of recordation of the notice of assessment, but the 1-year period may be extended by the developer or the association for a period not to exceed 1 additional year by recording a written extension thereof.

3. The lien may be enforced by sale by the developer or the association, its agent or attorney, after failure of the owner to pay such an assessment in accordance with the terms of the time-share instrument. The sale must be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Covenants Nos. 6, 7 and 8 of NRS 107.030 , and NRS 107.090 insofar as they are consistent with the provisions of NRS 119A.560 , or in any other manner permitted by law. Unless otherwise provided in the time-share instrument, the developer or the association, if it is a corporation, cooperative association, partnership or natural person, may bid at foreclosure sale and hold, lease, mortgage and convey the time share.
