(2) Except as provided in subsection (3) of this section, a beneficiary may not, as a condition of offering or approving a short sale as an alternative to foreclosing a residential trust deed, require a nonprofit entity that purchases property that is subject to the residential trust deed from a grantor in a short sale, or that purchases a note from the beneficiary that secures the grantor's obligation to the beneficiary by means of the residential trust deed, to enter into an agreement with the beneficiary or the grantor that limits or bars the grantor, after the short sale or the sale of the note, from owning or occupying the property that is subject to the residential trust deed.

(3) Subsection (2) of this section does not apply if:

(b) The grantor does not allow the beneficiary reasonable access to the property that is the subject of the short sale for the purpose of inspecting or appraising the property;
