A couple of questions about renting points?

[Chelley00]

We are thinking about renting DVC points for our trip next ******. How impossible is it to get a Grand Villa?

Also, it would be 6 of us for all of the trip, and then another 3 would join us for the last half. Would that cause problems for the reservations?

EDIT: Removed travel timeframe and desired resort - Chuck S

I had to edit your post, as we do not allow posts that could be interpreted as seeking a reservation anywhere, except as a reply into a Points for Rent thread on the Rent/Trade board.

To answer your questions, Grand Villas do usually book up fairly quickly, and it would be best to book it as early as possible during the 11 month resort owner priority window, meaning you'll need to look for an owner that owns points at your desired resort.

As far as people coming and going...as long as the total is not over the occupancy limit for the room (A Grand Villa sleeps 12) it should be fine. The fly in the ointment would be adding a Disney Dining Plan to the reservation, if you desire one. You would need to pay for all the people in your traveling party for the entire length of the reservation.

If you are not doing a dining plan, you should be just fine.

Sorry. My intent was just to provide a timeframe so we'd know when we needed to book. I didn't mean to break the rules

Thanks for the info.
