Wow an attack on my intelligemce-so you as a resort (whichever one it happens to be) do not call it a maintainance fee - big deal.
You say we assess you at 600 plus usd per week owned-that is an outright bargain because I presume that you sell "floating time" which in reality does not exist as every week sold has to be designated a fixed week i.e. a week between 1-51 on a timeshare calander this is because RCI need to take a guaranteed week from the resort to swap.
Therefore when you have sold 51 weeks you go to the next appt.-How on earth can it cost over 30k to maintain/assess an appt.-it does not-how much money does the assessment take for the management company off your week-it is huge,and is the benefit for every timeshare developer as eventually the client just dumps the appt. and the resort can resell it for more money.
