2012 Maintenance Fees

mhoutsma · Oct 17, 2011

Just saw the 2012 maintenance fees for my unit. Looks like they went up less than one percent from last year, which is great. Here is the info:

2 Bedroom, Las Vegas (Karen), Gold Season, $852 excluding ARDA and Club dues.

Are the club dues billed separately? Can you pay them online too?

South Beach - 4800 pts (1 Bedroom) - Platinum Season

Maintenance Fee and Tax Breakdown

2012 Operating Fee $687.95 (up 2.1%)
2012 Reserve Fee $147.22 (up 4.2%)
Real Estate Taxes $80.55 (up 15.7%)

Not bad. I voted to fully fund the reserve however I don't think the resolution passed as this is a small increase in reserve funding.

Usually club dues are billed together with your MF.
Karen Ave. had a renovation and had a high reserve last year.
Maybe this year it went back to normal?

2012 Operating Fee 01/01/12 $1,012.48
2012 Reserve Fee 01/01/12 $217.62
Real Estate Taxes 01/01/12 $104.00

Total: $1,334.10

Club Dues of $119.00 were also billed but I did not include them in the above because they were not resort specific.

I also voted to fully fund the reserve. We may have been the only two votes in favor.

My Sea World is different from Brkian.

Operating Fee $610.35
Reserve Fee $209.28

My club dues are on my LV bill.

Why are the Reserve fee & Real Estate taxes higher on my bill?

Our Sea World fees are similar to those of Brkian, but not entirely. This is for a 2 br Platinum, which as I understand should have been the same as for the 2 br Gold, which it is, but not for the taxes.

We are at our home resort (Charter Club of Marco Beach) right now-budget was approved last week. Maintenance will be $917 next year. Not sure how it breaks down for taxes, etc. We own 2 weeks and maintenance is slightly different for each due to taxes (I think that taxes for 1 building may be slightly higher. This is a 3.4% increase. They are planning on redoing one (or both-not sure) bathrooms next year. Kitchens and living rooms have been redone since we were here in May of 2010 and look great! This sure beats being at the office

OK so everything is close except club dues. Most club dues are $119 why is the one I quoted from $154?

It's higher by $65. Just guessing but perhaps you subscribe to an automatic billing? Vacation insurance? Annual auto-home week reservation?

but why? automatic billing? Vacation insurance? Annual auto-home week reservation? NO NO and NO.

I own OVS I (I think, i got the bill in the mail, but don't have it with me. When I check online it says OVS I in one place and OVS II in the other.

Because we are non US citizens, or international members.

My maiden name is vander Hulst. My parents were both born in the Nederlands and immigrated to Canada in the 50s. I have a general verbal understanding of about 75% of the language. My spelling and reading is non existent, I have to sound out the words and see if when hearing them I understand what they mean. I really understand what is like to be illiterate. I had to look up the spelling.
