A hypothetical situation

[Wedgeout]

I think I’m going to start small. Around 180-200 to start

How about 160 at BRV? No… I haven’t recovered yet lol. 180-200 should be a solid start for you. Hope the right contract finds you soon. Keep it up..doing great. Learning & getting more informed daily.

We're all wondering whats going to happen when 2042 comes and there's way less resorts to trade into and then all our resales are blocked out of the newer ones too.

If its impossible to get in anywhere and washing points is an insane price, that will be the end of DVC resale for me and I wouldnt want to deal with a single 700 point contract from one of the least popular resorts if thats how it plays out.

I will have enjoyed the 16 years i had sleeping around and hopefully get something back in return!

I should probably get the one with 170. It has a 4 star rating on dvcforless ..how much stock do you put in those ratings? It has full points on it and I already have a trip planned for January so I wouldn’t be using this until late 2026/early 2027 anyway

I know some of you will say wait but… I can’t!!!

For one bedrooms you're going to need that 250 and if you have a trip coming up in 10 months or less that you want to take for sure I wouldn't wait. I started my process eight months before our planned trip and it was not enough time to have 7 month priority and I naively thought it would be plenty of time to book something stress free

I also wouldnt buy international or the divorce situation. Youre lucky you found out about that. My first contract was international and it took forever to close, it was agonizing.

Sometimes international buyers do not have access to a US notary and they have to go to the US embassy and it can take months just to get an appointment, if there are even any available, and the resale brokers are not in any hurry to close or helpful at trying to find better solutions, or at leasr mine werent.

Buying a dvc timeshare is not like buying a house. I was expecting to have an agent that cared and that I kept in touch with a lot and, well, my real estate agent was like a therapist for me and friend during the homebuying process of our house, dvc was not like that.

At the end of the sale my DVC agent was like congratulations I know how much this means to you and your daughter and I dont even have a daughter No cares given
