Timeshare Datashare: Property and Occupancy Taxes
Provided by: ARDA International Foundation
April 2009
According to the latest
AIF research, Economic Impact of the Timeshare
Industry on the U.S.Economy, 2008 edition, it is
estimated that the timeshare industry supported approximately $430
million of resort property taxes, an increase of 27.5 percent from
2002. In addition, timeshare entities reported property taxes on
facilities used by sales operations and corporate offices, supporting an
estimated $30 million in additional timeshare industry property
taxes.
Occupancy tax
payments were also reported by respondents to the timeshare entity
survey, indicating an average annual level of occupancy taxes of $62,300
per 100 resort units. These taxes are
typically paid by travelers renting timeshare units, rather than
timeshare owners. Based on this average, and
the estimated number of resort units, it is estimated that occupancy
taxes paid by the timeshare industry and its owners and guests, totaled
approximately $110 million in 2007.
