    (b) The developer has listed any of its units for rent with a broker or salesman;
    (c) The developer has designated on internal marketing charts, memoranda or lists certain units as for sale and other units as for rent; and,
    (d) The developer-owned units are available for rent but not for purchase.
    (2) A developer shall be presumed not to have a program of leasing requiring disclosure pursuant to the above statute if the developer offers no more than 7 leases within a period of 1 year in a condominium comprised of 70 or more units. In condominiums containing fewer than 70 units, the foregoing presumption shall exist if, in any 1 year period, the developer offers 5 or fewer such leases.
    (3) In describing a program of leasing in a prospectus for a residential condominium, the developer shall identify:
    (a) The total number of units to be leased;
    (b) The specific units to be leased;
    (c) The provisions and duration of the proposed leases; and,
    (d) The estimated length of time in which the developer plans to lease units rather than sell them or lease units and sell them subject to such leases.
    (4) Where a developer has no current intention of engaging in a program of leasing at the time the prospectus is filed with the Division and therefore does not make the disclosures required by Florida Statutes § 718.504(10), the developer may not subsequently engage in a program of leasing until the developer:
    (a) Files an amendment with the Division, pursuant to Fl. Admin. Code R. 61B-17.006, fully disclosing the information noted above; and,
    (b) Provides a copy of the amendment to the association and to every unit owner.
