Dh and I did the dvc open house today, just to see the models. We aren't ready to buy right now, but probably will be ready sometime this year. We will probably do a resale.
Now, obviously the dvc guide is looking out for the best interests of dvc and its direct sales. But I asked what the benefits are by buying direct vs buying a resale.
She said that we don't know exactly what we're buying. That dvc member services will only talk to the member himself, so we could buy something that says it has 200 points left for the year, but really they were all used.
So this is honestly our biggest concern with buying resale. How do we know what we're getting? Obviously we would go with a resale broker that has good recommendations, but who's to say the seller isn't lying to them too? Is there a guarantee from one of these resale companies that says we are covered if it turns out those points aren't actually there?
