Please post your 2013 STARWOOD Maintenance Fees Here

[grgs]

Does this include a MF increase that was being discussed in the SDO vote thread, or has that not been incorporated yet?

I believe it does.

To cover the additional cost, maintenance fees were increased about 7% in 2012 and will increase over the next 2 years as follows: 12% (2013), 8% (2014). Then in 2015, there will be a 12% reduction in maintenance fees.

MF breakdown for SDO 2 bedroom LO

Maintenance Fee(s) $ 1,055.04 (Operating assessment: $679.89; Reserves: $375.15)

Just wanted to provide this info to show the substantial percentage going to reserves, presumably to cover the renovations. For comparison, the reserve portion for a WKV 2 bedroom LO is $235.

Actually, it's only $225. And yes, this is a very valid point in that once the reserves are built up hopefully the total annual MF will reduce at SDO.

I double checked--on my statement (on MSC), it lists the replacement reserve as $235.

You are absolutely correct. My mistake.

SVV St. Augustine 2br

2013 Vacation Ownership Assessment $647.38
2013 Condo Common Assessment $114.17
2013 Estimated Real Estate Tax $103.07
2013 SVN Membership Fee $125.00
2013 ARDA-ROC PAC Contribution $5.00
total $994.62

this is a bad part of ownership after a principal already

 

[JudyS]

It's $615.41 for the small, and $725.35 for the large (versus $1055.04 for the entire lockoff).

That works out to about a 22% discount for owning the whole lock-off versus owning the two halves individually. On the other hand, SBP seems to give little or no discount for owning both halves of a lock-off (and least in the older phase -- not sure of the fees on the newer phase.) Am I understanding this correctly?

Yes, you are. It seems to be anomaly with SDO. As far as I know, for most of the other Starwood resorts, someone separately owning the two halves of a lockoff pays the same mf as someone who owns the entire lockoff.
