Rick posted the above. 2023 points are available for every contract, but Wyndham will take, possibly, 4-6 months to transfer. We pay monthly and will keep fees current.

Buying to use and not rent from this day forward. Bought Sheraton, Marriott and Westin. Still a great hobby, but Wyndham changed the rules on renting. Hurt our daughter, not us so much, but the fees are piling up on us.

If you have a lot of questions about using Wyndham, please ask the experts on TUG under the Wyn forum.

Also, don't say you want to buy and then back out. This just happened. Ask questions on TUG, then decide.

Be sure to send the paperwork to LT Timeshares right away to start the process ASAP, since Wyn takes 4-6 months for the transfer.

If you want a contract, send me your email to start the process.

Closing is about $300, according to my recent bill from LT Transfers. $299 to Wyndham.

Is there a minimum club fee? I know the $0.70/1000, but I recall there being a minimum and why it is often suggested to own around 300k?

Yes, and it increases a bit every year or two; for 2023 it is $175.00 (so 250,000 points is the threshold).

The club fee is $.68 per thousand so divide the minimum of $175 by .68 and you get ~257. So 257k is the threshold.

The minimum fee is charged by account, not by deed, so if you have multiple deeds that add up to at least 257k, your club fee will be calculated at the $.68/1,000 rate rather than the minimum.

Have been looking for lower MF contract(s) to get started with Wyndham. Looking at the Fairfield Bay contracts. Curious why the MF amts are different. I've been reading thru posts and thought they were always the same at each resort. Thanks!

Some resorts have more than one “phase”: where each phase is legally separate and has slightly different costs. If a resort is converted weeks and not UDI, then different seasons pay the same underlying weekly MF but are awarded different amount of points.

True. Meadows, Fairways, etc., all have separate HOA's. The units are aso different in the floorplans. Also, some lockoff, some are reg 2 bedrooms.

Question someone asked and requires a general answer on this thread...I have not had a special assessment on any of my conytacts in the 15 years we have owned. The HOA boards are guided well by Wyndham and every MF includes reserves that are kept for updates.

So far, we are keeping our developer contracts. We have two Founders accounts. One barely qualifies with PIC.

Are these points able to be rolled over to 2024 or has the deadline passed?

Deadline is passed for resale (non vip)points. The good thing is you are only paying MF's for the months you can use them so getting x points with 2 or 3 months use but only paying MF's for 2-3 months is still a great deal and worse case scenario they can be rolled over to rci.

Emails to readylegal@gmail are being returned as undeliverable. Everyone who has contacted me to take contracts, I am trying to get these re-sent but my broken right arm=much more stress in getting things done.

Not after 2023. We are deeding back everything no one wants. 2024 we will be using what we own.

The above contracts are still available, and Wyndham will take the rest back, if no one wants these by the end of tomorrow.

The closing process is long for Wyndham, I have no idea as to why.. They say up to six months, so time is running out to get them deeded into your names and transferred by the end of the year.

Someone named Peter Pajak sends me emails to take a Fairfield Bay and my reply emails are returned to me as undeliverable.

Is this some sort of scammer?

I've been lurking on here and created an account just now to message you about this. But, as a new user I must not have access to send messages yet. Can you message me assuming you have not yet given these back to Wyndham?

You had already changed your mind on that, right?
