As one who is in the process of selling one contract and shopping for other resorts, this is most usefu!!

Riviera has some weird changes occurring in breakage income. Wondering what that indicates.

I haven’t looked that closely yet..can you expand?

What kind of changes? Could it be related to more villas being declared into the condo association, altering the amount and percentage of income from Disney's villa rentals that have to be accounted for as income to the condo association vs. direct income to Disney?

Their breakage income went from 0.1771 per point to 0.0248 in one year. Per the math provided by the link, it is a change of -86%, which seems very large.

Maybe, good question. It seems very possible this could be the reason.

I’d say that means we aren’t getting the full amount we could get…and that would mean fewer RiV inventory went unused by owners.

But I’ll have to look at the numbers in terms of %…we can get up to 2.5% of operating costs,,,excluding taxes and capital reserves.

Yes, it's a calculation involving the actual number of $ taken in vs. the total of operating costs. Both of those have changed in the last year, right? I have no idea how to do that calculation but I'm pretty sure it's a moving number when a resort is in active sales and the number of villas (and even the sizes, e.g. a studio brings in less money than a 2BR) that Disney gets to rent is changing.

Edit to correct amount of revenue from studio relative to 2BR.

One thing that is incorrectly displayed (although accurate) is the management fee.

The fee goes up but thats because its essentially a almost fixed percentage of the total fees. So it really needs to be shown as change relative to the fee % for the year.

So owning at AKV means I pay an extra 50 cents per point for Animal Programs, and all I can say to that is:

"WORTH IT!"

We pay them a straight 12% of operating costs, excluding taxes and capital reserves.
