I'm curious if anyone has heard about significant MF increases at Polo Towers in Las Vegas for 2020?
My co-owner (former husband) was at PT recently and decided to subject himself to a presentation in order to get free dinner for himself and his friends. We've owned a 2BR Villa at PT since 2004-ish (purchased resale for cheap) and bought 1,000 points in the US Collection in 2009.
Typical PT sleazy salespeople told CO all sorts of lies but one was curious. They said that MF increases at PT are not capped and DRI intends to double them for 2020. They had several reasons for this, including "the Raiders coming to town." Um, yeah, right. They claim our current $1200/year MF for the deeded unit will be over $2200 for 2020.
They told CO this in order to convince him to give up our deeded week and buy more points. MF increases are "capped at 4% per year in the US Collection", they said. We could give up our deed for a mere $17,000(!!), they said. They also told him he could do this without my involvement (wtf?), but he's not an idiot and didn't do anything except enjoy his free dinner.
Even though we vacation separately now, we struggle to use all our points every year (the deeded unit converts to 16,000 points). If the MFs go up much at all, we'll try to relinquish but we've got 34,000 points to use up next year and I hate to lose all those.
Our original paperwork is buried somewhere in a box in CO's house, so I can't check the contract to see about caps on increases. Anyone know?
