For those Atrium owners who don't remember, they did this same thing when Festiva bought the property in 2010. They made a "special assessment" to the timeshare owner's, apparently because they didn't do their due diligence regarding finances before buying the property. The Atrium contract that I and everyone else signed specifically stated that there would NEVER be any special assessments for any reason. A large percentage of timeshare owners sued, and went to the Dutch version of court. After countless delays, the judge finally ruled that, even though the contracts we signed said no special assessments, he would allow it this one time. I told Festiva to stick it, and walked away. I'm glad I did.
