Private Transfer Fee
Whenever a unit is bought or sold that is part of the BMMA, a 1% private transfer fee is required. It is negotiable who pays for the fee. This private transfer fee is above and beyond the 1% transfer tax that is collected by the Town of Breckenridge also at the time of a sale. Therefore, a total of 2% of the gross sales price is required at the time of sale. Both the transfer tax and private transfer fee are negotiable with respect to who pays – Buyer or Seller.
Civil Assessment for Rentals
For those owners that have their unit rented, a civil assessment is collected by the BMMA on an ongoing basis. The fee is 2% of gross rental income. A property manager can collect this income and charge this as an additional fee to guests, or include in the overall rental rate. In either case, the amount must be remitted to the BMMA. If a property manager does not collect this amount, the property owner would be responsible for paying this assessment.
Annual Common Assessment
Each year around August 1st, owners are required to pay a common assessment to help fund the BMMA. The amount is determined by multiplying the assessed value of all real property by the following rate:
- Upper BMMA = 8 mills
- Lower BMMA = 4 mills
Example:
Total property value: = $1,000,000
Assessed value (Total value X 7.2%) = $ 72,000
Annual 8 mills assessment (Assessed value X .008) = $ 576
