Sister and I were discussing Aulani, which raised some questions regarding subsidized contracts and how they work:
1. I've heard of Aulani and VB using subsidized contracts. Are there other DVC resorts?
2. Does the subsidy last the entire length of contract, or just for a specified shorter period of time?
3. Where does the subsidy come from and was it always considered a subsidy when first sold by Disney?
4. Why does Disney use subsidized contracts?
5. What % of contracts (e.g. at Aulani) are subsidized?
6. How/why/when did Disney stop selling the subsidized contracts and start selling contracts with higher MFs?
7. Has Disney been grabbing all subsidized contracts going through ROFR? Or do some actually pass? Does anyone have some statistics on this?
Hopefully you knowledgeable folks can help fill in the blanks!
