I think the $100 million dollar renovation at Beachwoods will still take place or at least some of it but instead of Gold key pumping that money into the resort (in addition to the Money brought in by the special assessment) DRI will put the entire amount on current owners and use that SA and additional SA fear to try to get another $10,000-$20,000 or so out of owners to convert to the club where they will be cushioned from the SA. Once the current owners get the property nice and shiny it will be easier to sell points to all the developer owned weeks and weeks that enter default due to the raised MF's and SA.
The other fear I have is that DRI won't consider non DRI owners as owners entitled to free ementies. I can see them charging for waterpark, paddle boats, and all the new amenities but offering them free to DRI owners.
Hope it won't be as bad as all that for at least the next several years. I just pushed buy it now on a summer week.
