Register online at ResortTrades.com/LearningCenter.
Withum Partner; Practice Leader, Hospitality, Lena G. Combs will present a half-hour webinar on October 16, 2020, beginning at 1:00 p.m. ET. Combs and fellow Withum Partner Ray Bastin, CPA, CGMA, provided a plethora of timeshare (vacation ownership) resort budgeting tips in their article, “Resort Timeshare Budgeting Tips in the ‘New Normal’,” which appeared in the October 2020 edition of Resort Trades magazine.
During her Friday presentation – “Resort Budgeting Tips in the “New Normal,” a Trades Lunch Bunch* event – she will address the following:
- What financial picture can HOA Boards and resort management expect in 2021?
- What kind of maintenance fee delinquencies might we expect in 2021?
- Can Boards and managers rely on historical data at all when budgeting this year?
- What additional “safety” costs are most resorts expecting as vacationers demand greater precautionary measures?
- Are there any other areas of the budget that we can cut to save costs?

The timeshare resort business hit a low point in 2020 thanks to COVID-related travel hesitancy and exit companies’ outrageous barrage of negative messaging so learning the new normal is important.
*Another in Resort Trades’ free, 30-minute interactive webinars, a “Trades Lunch Bunch,” the interactive, live event begins at 1:00 p.m. ET. Remember the old ‘Brown Bag Lunch’ sessions resort team members used to have before COVID came steamrolling into our lives? That’s what we wish to recreate virtually. So, bring a sandwich, join us for lunch (or brunch for some), and bring your questions.
