Disney Vacation Club has started to release the proposed annual dues for 2017. The budgets behind the dues will be approved at the DVC annual meeting on December 8, 2016 at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort Convention Center.
One of the obligations of being an owner is to help pay the operating costs and upkeep of the resort. Annual dues cover operating expenses (housekeeping, transportation, maintenance, utilities, Front Desk services), administrative expenses (Member Services, member mailings, insurance), refurbishment expenses (updating and maintaining the interior, exterior, and common areas), and real estate taxes (property taxes).
You can choose to pay your dues annually or spread payments out monthly with no finance charge. Dues vary by resort and are expressed in terms of a set dollar amount per point.
