DUES Info! - Check your mail and post your dues here.

Wasn't RIV supposed to get a big tax credit? Is the new dues number before or after that tax credit?

EDIT: NVM found the info, the total is before the credit thankfully. Which makes sense otherwise the dues would have been going up over $1 which would be nuts

I think that comes into play after.. if I remember correctly.

It’s before. The tax credit will offset the amount you owe (by about $0.60/point as I recall).

 

[Hubalorian]

So glad I traded my AKV points for CCV points before this news. Whew.

VGF and CCV isn’t too bad.

 

[Carouselofplanning]

Hot take: An across the board dues bump to this degree will solve the low resale inventory issue.

Wages but also construction materials

The replacement cost esitmate at RIV is higher, but I haven't dug into the budget breakdown yet--partly it is higher because more Vacation Homes were declared into the condominium. And materials feeds into that, but only partly. Materials accounts for about 2/3 of new construction vs. labor, but I have no idea how that compares to maintenance (I suspect the labor-to-materials ratio is higher in renovation?)

The five largest componetns of Dues at RIV, in order, are:

Housekeeping: $2.23/pt, (4.8% increase)
Property Taxes: $1.98, (flat, but 2025's estimate was low)
Capital Reserves: $1.15 (3.4%)
Transportation: $0.99 (9.9%)
Front desk/admin: $0.93 (9.7%)

Housekeeping and Front desk are pretty much all labor. Transportation and Reserves are part labor, part equipment/materials.

I'll do the same exercise with the 2024 Notices for BLT and SSR.

 

[CarolynFH]

Man these increases are adding up....I've owned SSR for 11 years and my monthly has gone from $67-$125. I get things are getting more expensive but what will they look like in another 10 years. Still way cheaper than paying for the hotels cash though.

Ours at BWV have tripled in 28 years.

 

[eticketplease]

Yup that is why I don't prepay. I wait for the actual amount to post and then pay it.

From everyone’s post…


VGF: 8.3142
BWV: 9.6717
Poly: $8.3334
BLT - $8.7415
SSR - $9.1877
BCV 9.8113
CFW 12.2756
HHI 12.8621
OKW 11.2054
VGC 9.5203
VDH 10.5354
RIV 9.455
AKV 10.1608

So BLT got the biggest % increase it looks like.

Yep, it’s because I bought 2 BLT contracts this year. lol

Gulp, yuk.

Add-on-itus prophylactic!

So true!

So glad I traded my AKV points for CCV points before this news. Whew.

Yea, I’m thinking VGF is looking good!! lol

I’m sure Paul has made a post already, but if not here it is.

Disney Vacation Club just released the 2026 annual dues and there are some noticeable increases across most resorts. I pulled together the full list with 2025 and 2026 numbers plus the percentage change so everything is in one place.

Full article here

Here is the data table.

Curious where your home resort landed this year. Which increase surprised you most or felt overdue for a correction.

I never read this whole thing before but has some fun info.

So for SSR in 2024 notice they had 255k of unsold points being held, that's down to 155k in this notice. Its as of the year end of the prior year so way out of date now, but still interesting that they dropped their unsolds that much over a year.

 

[Arr2-D2]

My napkin math on 1160 points is a $552.63 increase for us. A little latch broke on the sliding door last time I was at CCV and I muttered to myself... I'm going to pay for this.

Still super happy to be here and for the memories these trips bring.

420 VGF
2025: $7.9298 =$3,330.5
2026: $8.3142 = $3,491.96 ($161.46 increase)

740 CCV
2025: $8.4914 = $6,283.63
2026: $9.02 = $6,674.8 ($391.17 increase)
