how to calculate dues/reimbursement for a resale

[disneyberry]

okay, thank you all for explaining this to me.
i'm glad i finally understand this clearly.

i don't know why, i kept hearing "dues charged by the calendar year" and just couldn't understand what exactly that meant until i figured out to ask that specific question w/ the dates breakdown... feeling a little thick in the head...

anyway, this issue was confusing for me, so i wouldn't be surprised if it were confusing for others (including brokers) as well...

i now truly understand why MB becomes slightly less good of a deal because of the way Disney charges dues. i thought i understood before, but it turns out i didn't get it until now. heh.

i have one more somewhat related question.

from what exact date does Disney prorate their dues when you buy from them?

is it the closing date, the date you put down your deposit, the date you first sign the purchase contract, or some other date?

this question doesn't apply to new resort situations (like kem330's example last year w/ BCV presales).

I believe it's the date you sign the purchase contract. It's definitely NOT the closing date.

Doc is correct. I looked back into our papers for our original purchase, and we were prorated off the date we offically signed all the papers (about 1 week after we actually purchased and put down the deposti).
