A. A person required to deliver a disclosure statement pursuant to Subsection C of Section 54 of the Condominium Act shall provide a purchaser of a unit with a copy of the disclosure statement and all amendments thereto before conveyance of that unit and not later than the date of any contract of sale. Unless a purchaser is given the disclosure statement more than seven days before execution of a contract for the purchase of a unit, the purchaser, before conveyance, may cancel the contract within seven days after first receiving the disclosure statement.
B. If a purchaser elects to cancel a contract pursuant to Subsection A of this section, he may do so by hand-delivering notice thereof to the offerer or by mailing notice thereof by prepaid United States mail to the offerer or to his agent for service of process. Cancellation is without penalty, and all payments made by the purchaser before cancellation shall be refunded promptly.
C. If a person required to deliver a disclosure statement pursuant to Subsection C of Section 54 of the Condominium Act fails to provide a purchaser to whom a unit is conveyed with that disclosure statement and all amendments thereto as required by Subsection A of this section, the purchaser is entitled to rescind the purchase within six months from the date of conveyance upon delivery to the seller of a deed subject to no encumbrance attaching to the property suffered or caused by the purchaser.
