i feel like mine is taking FOREVER! I Fed Exed my closing docs and money on March 26, received word that they received it on March 30 and sent for closing. Still haven't heard anything about closing and the deed has not been filed as of yet. Waiting to hear back from the closing company on...

Cool! I thought they overlooked DVC guests for this... lucky ducks! Enjoy it!

I think it seems more common that people are selling their contracts not because they didn't enjoy them but because their life situation has changed (financial, family size, empty nesters, etc). I know for me, my plan right now is to stick with our smaller BLT contract and once my kids get a...

welcome! Always good to see some Disney WhoDats around here! :)

I was browsing the TSS yesterday and noticed the asking prices have all increased by $5-10pp just in the last two weeks! So strange how much the market fluctuates week to week. I paid slightly higher than market value a month ago but now it's right in line with the current prices so I feel...

This thought makes me sad too... while we bought into DVC knowing that we would still visit after our babies are gone, I can't stand even thinking about that day...:(

Very cool. If they would've let me buy 50 or 60 points initial buy-in a few years ago when I toured, I would have signed on-site. :) Probably a good thing I couldn't at the time..

how were you able to buy your first contract direct at such a low point buy-in, if you don't mind me asking? We wanted to do that but were told we had to at least buy 100 pts for our first contract.

Great to hear! The idea of non-park trips is what sold my husband on me buying into DVC. I could go to the parks every day for the rest of my life and not get tired of them but he's not really a theme park person. One and done, but he endures it now because he loves seeing the faces on our...

Congrats!! Yes, I think the 180 day ADRs will come before! Good thinking... we might be in the window before we get our numbers too! I'm off to check the calendar. :)

I was also torn between these two (after I got over the Poly dream). I actually made an offer at AKL and the sellers backed out, then decided BLT was better for now. My decision was this: I have a smaller contract at 100 pts at BLT, which will allow us to book at BLT for those vacations we...

Okay, thank you!! I will add him as while I do everything outside of the parks, we do tend to split up with our older and younger kids in the parks... would be nice to both receive discounts.

Yikes! I am sorry you received that service. I am a TA as well and with Disney reservations especially, it is so important to have a quick response as you could miss out on key ADRs and FP+. I would still reach out to your TA for assistance with your ADRs, tickets, etc. I had a tough...

Smaller contracts demand a higher premium so depending on the contracts you're comparing them to, it might be priced right for a quick sale, even with stripped points. In my time stalking these boards, it seems the best offer is the one you're comfortable with. If you are patient and can wait...

I am waiting to close on our first DVC purchase. On the contract, I only listed my name as owner. My husband doesn't care about the planning aspect and I will always be the only one to make reservations, hold the card, receive the mail and such. However, does he need to be on the deed in...

Awesome!! Congrats! I've been waiting for today for what seems like years but I ended up buying a BLT resale for my first. Now, if my guide calls me and catches me in a good mood, I'll probably add on a small Poly contract too. Addonitis: the struggle is real.

I didn't hear back for 2 days. My agent said there were multiple offers on the listing they were considering. I will definitely put a 24 hour limit on my next one because there were a few others I had my eye on... and we all know, when you're ready to pull the trigger, you're ready. :)

Yay!! congrats! disneyhutson, I just passed a BLT and it took exactly 21 days.

yay!! sending some pixie dust your way! Hopefully in a month, we'll be neighbors. :)
