Who to finance DVC?

[piranha66]

I just found out that the interests rates are over 10% for anything beyond one year of financing through Disney. Do DVC owners usually finance through Disney or choose an alternate route?

Thanks!

well I am not a home owner so I could not go this route, but many people suggest you use the equity in your home for a loan and get a better rate. You could also try personal loan from your bank. I looked into this but my bank would not do a loan against the DVC points as collateral so I would have had to get an unsecured loan and those would have been around the same rates from DVD.

Also there is no penalty for pre payment so you can always pay off faster and save on interest.

Hope that helps,
