Home Ownership vs. Club Membership Disclosure

Zero equity or private membership required. Palm Valley Golf Club is a public daily-fee facility featuring the Palms, Lakes, and Novice championship layouts. Resident discount cards, seasonal punch cards, and public tee times are open to all homeowners with zero initiation burden.

Fiduciary Truth in Advertising: Real estate purchase contracts do not bind private golf clubs to admit buyers or guarantee membership availability. Always inspect the club's current bylaws, waiting list procedures, and initiation fee schedule independently.
