The purposes of this article are to: (1) recognize that timeshare estates are interests in real property used for vacation experience rather than for homestead purposes and that there are numerous timeshare estates in South Carolina; (2) recognize that the economic health and efficient operation of the vacation ownership industry are in part dependent upon the availability of an efficient and economical process for foreclosure; (3) recognize the need to assist vacation ownership resort owners' associations by simplifying and expediting the process of foreclosure of assessment liens and mortgage liens; (4) reduce court congestion and cost to taxpayers by establishing streamlined procedures for foreclosure of assessment liens and mortgage liens against timeshare estates; (5) establish those streamlined procedures by giving statutory recognition to the right of persons to privately contract for a power of sale as their remedy in lieu of a judicial foreclosure of liens on timeshare estates while specifically limiting the application of such nonjudicial foreclosure procedures to timeshare estates only.
