How many people can buy one membership?

[funcinderella]

If my brother and his wife, parents and I all wanted to go in together on buying some points, could we all be considered "members"? Could we all go in on one contract? We all would want to be able to make reservations, buy discounted annual passes etc. Not sure if there is a limit, say only 2 people on each contract.

We are looking at so many different scenarios, it's mind-boggling...

I don't know if there is a limit, but IMHO you would be setting yourselves up for some major problems. One membership with mutiple families owning would be difficult to manage - unless you all get along very well and plan to travel together all the time. Even then, disagreements about finances/spending/money management are the best way I know to ruin good family relationships!

For example, if you all owned one DVC contract together and -

someone divorces?
someone declares bankruptcy?
someone wants/needs to sell (and the others don't)?
one family uses/needs more points (needs bigger room or goes in a different season)than the others?
someone doesn't believe in borrowing?
etc.


Better to buy 3 smaller contracts (1 per family). JMHO. YMMV.

everyone could make reservation but only family members living at the primary members address would get discount on annual passes.... The associate member is not included.

Just a recommendation, but if everyone is interested in owning... get 3 smaller contracts as opposed to 1 larger. Then you wouldn't have the household limitations of the 1 contract.

If all were listed as owners, they all could buy the discounted passes. Associate members are not owners.
