Titling of Deed

[mjmarshall1510]

Was just told by a reputable source that Disney is no longer allowing new deeds in the name of an LLC. Liked this option for estate planning and privacy purposes. Can someone confirm?

Assuming you are currently a Member, call Member Administration and ask them. I very much doubt that it is true, though.

The DVC FAQs still talk about titling to an LLC with no mention of restrictions, but the FAQs have been wildly out of date before.

Here mostly to say this would cause an issue for existing members adding on if their existing membership is in an LLC. I think this would force the generation of a whole new membership.

 

[Brian Noble]

Yes, it would.

Can't confirm but always found it interesting putting into an LLC. I'm not expert in the matter but my understanding is you could just sell the LLC, then the new owner just changes the names of the officers and they could retain blue-card benefits.

Can’t confirm but I hope this is true.

I will add they allow trusts so that should solve your problem if LLC’s are no longer allowed.

I have no idea if this is true or not but they might be able to restrict new LLCs except for people adding a deed to an existing membership that has it.

The annual meeting is coming soon! Remember the Heinz ketchup commercials

Anticipation… is making me wait

Very curious to find out the ending of last year’s cliff hanger. Will we be having the same conversation about shenanigans and prohibited use?

Well, per the POS, LLCs fall under a different set of rules when it comes to whom can use the membership.

So, I could definitely see them deciding to go this route for all future sales, or at the very least, forcing owners who title in LLCs to be held to the contract rules.

It would certainly impact owners who own DVC for commercial reasons and use the LLC as a way around it.

IMO, it would be a move that goes after the right group of owners. So I hope it’s true!

Interesting that it’s coming out now with the meeting just around the corner!

ETA: it would certainly make it easier for DVC to limit the number of LLCs who own.
