BeachPlace Towers 2010 MF

The following were approved maintenance fees for 2010:

Platinum:
Operating--$680.05
Reserve--$230.00
Tax--$104.53
Total--$1,014.58

Gold:
Operating--$680.05
Reserve--$230.00
Tax--$67.53
Total--$977.58

These fees are not increased from 2009. The Board was able to keep the 2010 fees the same as 2009 because of current and prior year surplus balances in the operating fund and the tax fund. The surplus amounts were realized through cost savings initiatives in the operating fund and reduction of tax assessments for the tax fund. Without the application of the surplus return to owners, the fee would have been higher by about $50 or a 5% increase.

The notice on the my-vacationclub.com Barony Beach page has been changed to another later release date:

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience, as your resort budget and accompanying documents will not be available for on-line viewing until the week of December 28, 2009. Thank you.

Hmmmmm. I'm concerned with the delays because of the extensive refurbishment, wonder if a Special Assessment is being considered?

Streamside-Birch Fixed Week 47

Marriott Streamside Vail Birch 1 bedroom fixed Thanksgiving week 47; always snow by Nov 15

BI*0205*47 2010 Replacement Reserve $151.86
BI*0205*47 2010 Operating Fee $376.00
ARDA $10.00

Streamside allows quarterly payments of 1/4 the fee with a $5.00 charge per quarter. Do any other resorts allow this option? It can be very convenient for owners and the $5 quarterly fee covers much of the interest foregone by the HOA. The optional ARDA is all paid in the 1st quarter--however I'm sure it is accepted anytime.

Is it actually lower or was there an Accessment last year that isn't there this year? I don't recall but somehow I think it might have been the case...

Regardless, definitely not as out of control as Maui/Westing appears to be...

 

[SueDonJ]

We love our Barony week but the units look a little bit "tired" when we compare it to SurfWatch. We expected a refurb to happen within a few years when we bought two years ago, and from the sounds of things it will be beautiful when it's done.

It appears from the latest newsletter that the finances are in pretty good shape - maybe we'll get lucky with a minimal SA if at all? But, if a SA is necessary, I just wish they would let us know that they're thinking about it. Holding off on the m/f and SA bills until after the holidays doesn't really make for good planning. Especially if they do the same thing SurfWatch did - the due date wasn't delayed any despite them delaying the bills. If Barony does the same we'll only have a couple weeks to respond. Maybe they think it will cut down on the complaining if owners don't have a lot of time to think about it?

Grand Chateau 3 bedroom Platinum 6.3% Increase

MGC 3 bedroom Platinum season

2010 Operating fee $999.06
2010 Replacement reserve $335.04
2010 Property Taxes $108.50

Total $1,442.60

Increase over 2009 $84.98
6.3% Increase

I'm not certain why the replacement reserve fee is so high on this property. There's not a lot to the grounds, the pool is pathetically small and there aren't a great deal of lounge chairs. There is one bar that doesn't serve food and has limited hours. The valet service is included in the operating expenses. All I can figure is that visitors to Las Vegas must be really hard on the units.
