    Raising the points?

    "They do it every year around Easter/Spring break since that moves around every year." Actually, they're not raising the points during this time of the year, but they're moving the Premier Season from one week to another. Most seasons remain the same for the weeks listed; however, Easter...

    Should I take the DVC plunge?

    Looking at your last trip, the points were only higher on one night of your trip. If you continue doing your trips that way, DVC is great. What we used to do was spend our Saturday night off property or at the Value resorts and then switch to DVC for our Sun-Thur night stay. This way we used...

    Closed in record time

    I'm sure it's frustrating for the Closing Department. They want to finish up and get the paperwork out of there. I'm guessing the seller didn't send the paperwork in yet or didn't sign everything that was necessary. I hope things get taken care of very soon for you.

    Fair price per point for BWV?

    I think the price for new members is $95 per point and it's $92 for members adding on. The waitlist can be longer for both Bwalk and BCV. I would try to offer $82-85 on a Bwalk depending on the number of available points. You should come out ahead on a resale. If you're willing to wait for...

    One more question ,I promise!

    You can bank the remaining 12 points in to your Dec 07 use year. If you had the full allottment of points, you would have been able to bank all of those as well. It's when you get into the 50 & 25% banking window when it becomes a little confusing. It refers to the percentage of the total...

    DVC Tour???

    I think they have opened rooms to view at Boardwalk. Not sure of the times or days of the week, but I believe it's in the evening. Usually there's a guide there as well. They may stop doing this by October, but they get a lot of foot traffic on the Boardwalk and it doesn't hurt to show some...

    ? about adding family member to DVC title

    I think you also have to have your loan paid off with Disney in order to change the purchasers on the membership. Check with them. Then you might be charged by the lawyer handling this and the other costs mentioned above.

    BCV Incentive Going Away!

    The new incentive will be $5 per point given back, but only if you decide to sell back your points for the first year. For Hilton Head and Vero, it will be $10 per point. That's the latest.

    Who would like a separate forum focused on II trades?

    Steve, I would like it. If it's easy to get to, why not. Since I live in Orlando, I'd love to hear examples of other locations and how many points it took to go there. Obviously, the ones that are week exchanges are the ones I'm curious about. Benedetta OKW Member

    BCV views of Epcot

    There are only a few that will have a view of Epcot. I did a construction tour and they showed us the best room. It faced Spaceship Earth and it was on the top floor. Even the lady who walked us through said that there were only a few. You're facing the backstage area of Epcot between Canada...

    Free incentive stay ?

    Linda, They offered this incentive only with the purchase of BCV. The other incentive is to receive $5 per point purchased and apply it to the down payment. The main reason for the incentives was because the resort was being prepurchased and couldn't be used until July. Also, because they...

    2 Questions about OKW

    Roast Beef sandwich with tomato and mozarella cheese. Like a french dip. Usually served at lunch. Not sure about dinner. They took it away for awhile and had to bring it back because it was so popular. Benedetta

    Has incentive for BCV changed since 4/1?

    The same incentives are still intact. Yes there is talk of removing them. It's either $5 per point toward your down payment or a free stay based on point level purchased. Benedetta

    Villas At Disney Institute?

    No one knows but the higher ups. Disney Institute will not begin selling until BCV are sold out. And then it will most likely be on a presale. What does that mean for that contract? My guess is that they'll extend the number of years for the Institute. If they don't, then it makes sense to...

    Negatives of going thru resale????

    What everyone said is true. Another issue to consider are the incentives. Right now, you receive a future free stay with a BCV purchase or $5 per point without giving up your points. HH and Vero have different incentives that can make the purchase price come down. So weigh the costs. Find...

    DVC tour without my DH

    Tracey, I work for DVC at one of those info booths. We do allow guests to tour alone. We usually require a name, address & phone for all interested parties. We don't do credit checks as I believe some timeshares do. And because you're from the ONLY province in Canada that allows us to sell...
