A Confession: I typically do not pay these MF's until mid-February.
It results from prioritizing year-end expenses thusly...
(1) R/E Tax on my House;
(2) Christmas-Related Expenses; and lastly,
(3) Timeshare MF's.

Don't feel bad...you aren't alone! :eek:

Kind of hurts paying it, but I keep reminding myself what great vacations we get from this. We usually get a little over 2 weeks from those points.

RE: $99 Club dues

I see everyone note this and I know it paid yearly, but does it come via another invoice or bill? I assume this too is "due" 1 Jan, but AFAICT, I have not gotten that bill yet. I know I can expect it, but want to ensure goes to the right bean counter when paid and usually that's done by waiting til the bill arrives so you have a reference number to include in the posting.

Typically, no. Unless you own at an affiliate, its usually included as a line item in one of your MF statements. It only has to be paid once by each member, so you may want to check them to make sure that you're not double billed.

2010 MF's

I haven't seen any posts yet for 1 bedroom Flamingo or 1 bedroom Las Vegas Strip. I am just curious what those fees are for the 1 bedroom units and how they compare to other 1 bedroom Maintenance fees in HGVC.

Odd, this is all I have in my corrected statement for Flamingo 2BR

BALANCE FORWARD 0.00
2010 Operating Fee 594.99
2010 Reserve Fee 129.36
Real Estate Taxes 58.46
Voluntary ARDA Fee 3.00

TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
785.81

I not gonna pay the ARDA fee, but will pay the rest and see what happens about the yearly club fee.

The docs they sent me indicate Billing budget for 1 and 2 BR

2BR has already been noted I think by several folks

1BR
Op fee $546.51
Res Fee $119.11
R/E Taxes $ Not found, although likely around 58bucks I suspect, considering that 2B is 58.46

I have had the club fee billed separately in past years, even though I own at a HGVC-built property. I think this is the first year the club fee was in the same invoice (I've only owned 3 years).

With HGVC, maintenance fees are based on the property and unit size only. Therefore, all 2BR units at a given property will have the same MF, no matter what season they are in or how many points they are worth.

Maintenance Fee and Tax Breakdown
Description Due Date Balance
2010 Operating Fee 01/01/10 $684.95
2010 Reserve Fee 01/01/10 $113.39
Real Estate Taxes 01/01/10 $72.72
2010 Hawaii Ge Tax 01/01/10 $37.62
Total Current Balance: $908.68

When you add in the $99 2010 dues which I already payed you come up with $1,007.68, and if you want to add in another $3 voluntary ARDA fee you come out with 1010.68 which is suprisingly similar to the Seaworld 7000 platinum above.

L.A.-But I'd rather be on Brokeback Mtn.
2 bedroom HGVC LV Stip

Club dues $99

Operating fee $534.14

Reserve $130.56

Real Estate Taxes $56.52

Total $829.22

Can I ask you to double check these numbers and verify the amount for "Operating Fee" at $534.14?

The reason I ask is because I own two weeks in an identical unit, 2-Bedroom (Platinum) at Las Vegas Strip. This is my statement:

2010 Club Dues 01/01/10 $99.00
2010 Operating Fee 01/01/10 $543.14
2010 Operating Fee 01/01/10 $543.14
2010 Reserve Fee 01/01/10 $130.56
2010 Reserve Fee 01/01/10 $130.56
Real Estate Taxes 01/01/10 $56.52
Real Estate Taxes 01/01/10 $56.52

Total Current Balance: $1,559.44
Voluntary Arda Roc $3.00
Total Current Balance: $1,562.44

As you can see, the amounts are identical in every category except the Operating Fee amount, which indicates on my statement that I was charged $543.14 instead of $534.14 which your statement reads. Is it possible this was a typo, or was I in fact charged more?

:confused:

I normally get the Club Fees (used to be $90, now $99) billed separately - its billed earlier than my Flamingo bill, actually some time in late September. It shows up in my online account. Flamingo bills show up online much later, mid to late October.

The paper statement usually has them all together, and shows up just after the Flamingo bill comes online.

I was putting together a spreadsheet comparing 2010 Maintenance Fees at the various HGVC properties. I am still looking for a breakdown of fees for a 1 bedroom at the Las Vegas Strip and 1 bedroom at the Flamingo. I have the 2 bedroom fees from earlier posts. There also was a post earlier with the OP fee and Reserve fee for a 1 bedroom at the Flamingo but the Real Estate Taxes weren't found?

Thanks

Jon

I would also like to know the 1bdrm fees at the Las Vegas Strip. We're in the process of closing on a resale unit there. Just curious what the new fees are. :ponder:

Update:
#1 (R/E Taxes) + #2 (Christmas) ended up on the same CC bill. <sigh>
But they're covered. So, my HGVC-MF's will be paid (charged) in January. :)
