Commerical Use Policy Update - New Thread!

[Brianstl]

You've made references to where renting covers more than dues being considered commercial too. Why would that be the case if it's not part of the current policy?

Because anything that generates what could be considered a profit fits the legal definition of commercial activity.

Someone got belligerently drunk, who was a DVC owner at beach club. Basically there was a question whether he could be exited from his own resort. About six months later the Florida assembly passed a law that we can be exited from our own resorts for breaking the rules of the hotel.

Oh wow. I'm surprised he wasn't given 3 hots and a cot and banned from Disney World altogether. You can't put your hands on anyone else over seating arrangements...

Something like that wouldn’t be in conflict with the 20 reservations rule if DVC decides to use that in conjunction with it.

Basically, they have said that renting to the degree that is appears to offset dues would not be a violation.

So, if they review an account in which someone has hit the 20, they can then use that to determine if the ones below 20 appear commercial.

But, to be fair, the info I was given about this being the offical policy and all that was in play came after I was given that by MS…so, I posted that I am not sure exactly how that would come in to play.

I know how I reconcile them but no idea if that is how DVC would.

Did anyone else just notice a ton of availability pop up for several months under 7 months? Might be nothing, but I was looking to add on to a rental and there has been nothing available for months until an hour ago, when a bunch popped up at many different resorts.

Ugh, can’t even get into the site right now. It says service unavailable.

Was any of the availability in the hardest to book rooms?
