dvc buying

Hi guys, long time listener and first time poster on the boards here. I’ve been strongly considering buying into DVC recently and I am big into credit card points, using the Chase Sapphire Reserve card which gets 3 points per dollar spent on purchases coded as “Travel.” Do new direct DVC...

Please excuse me if this has already been asked and answered. I tried to search for the answer but could not find it. How does it work if you have two DVC contracts. For example say I buy 150 pt contract from Disney and an additional 150 point contract on the resale market. If I want to...

HI Everyone! I need help and am debating between 2 resale contacts. I'm torn between either BWV or BRV as a Home resort at the moment and need help deciding between the 2. My ideal home resort is BWV but I can get BRV for a much better price so I am being swayed by that. I am not fussed about...

Hi all -- my first post! I'm a former CM from a long long time ago and am very familiar with the park. I've been twice to WDW with my autistic son, when he was 4 and 5 on spring break. It was WAY too busy for him at that time, but DAS was very accomodating and helpful. A lot has happened since...

My wife and I are currently looking into becoming DVC members and would like to talk to somebody from DVC, does anybody know of a contact telephone number for inquiries from the UK?

Hi, we are close to making a decision to buy at Animal Kingdom. One of the concerns that my wife and I have is the availability of rooms. We talked to a DVC sales agent and he was bragging about how many new members they are currently signing up a week, which makes us nervous that we would make...

I have no clue when direct contract points become available and if you can borrow right away. Thanks!

We're looking at buying another contract direct from Disney (we currently own 2 others that were bought direct as well) and we're wondering if people get any extras when buying while at Disney World vs just doing it over the phone? My wife and I did a timeshare presentation in Vegas years ago...

So I want to get join my family in getting a DVC membership, but I’m not too keen on the riviera prices for the amount of points I want to get (~250). So I’m looking at buying resale at Old Key West for stays, but I know you lose all kinds of perks buying resale. Does anyone know resources I can...

We've decided to buy 100 points direct at Copper Creek. We already have a trip planned in early December. I had planned to do a tour while we are there and then buy, but now I'm thinking we should do it before we go. I'm assuming that even if we buy tomorrow, we wouldn't be able to use our...

My husband and I are looking to buy in to DVC in the near future and have been wracking out brains to narrow down which resort we want - as in, I have created a 10 page spreadsheet comparing almost every possible factor you can imagine to try and choose. LOL At this point, we have narrowed down...

Hello! I keep going back and forth on direct vs resale- we are a family of 5. I was thinking the annual pass discount is pretty significant. What are your thoughts?

I have been a DVC member 20 years and here is my Top-20 Tips for Disney Vacation Club. 1. Buy the location you love most - if you plan 7 to 11 months in advance 2. Buy the cheapest option (combination of price and annual dues) - if you plan 7 months or less 3. Do not stress over the use year as...

Hi all! My husband and I are prepping to do a direct DVC purchase through Disney. Don't worry--we've done a lot of research over the last year. :) We are planning to buy the minimum 100 points and then later on add extra points through resale. We tried calling DVC this week but their phone...

A few years ago we purchased a DVC contract with Wilderness Lodge Villas as our home resort. We sold a couple of years later for various reasons. As Florida residents we wanted to be more spontaneous with our visits...yet stay "where we wanted". That was hard to do using points. We had a...
