Add on tool changes?

[cruisehopeful]

My guide explained the VGC points as something that's occasionally loaded and the guides refresh the inventory list throughout the day. If they see a contract, they pull it for their client if they are sure the client will purchase. I verbally committed to a certain sized contract in my use year if it comes up. If my resale gets ROFR'd, I'm going to see if my guide can snatch it for me.

Well first you need a goat from Mammalians Nurturable with verve and wiles...

Now i see jambo missing from the tool!
Kidani is still there.
This is very interesting to see how they keep changing it.

Here is what i see on the tool today:
Aul, vdh, cfw,riv, pvb in the top for active
Blt, ccv, akv-k, bwv, bcv, ssr, okw, vgf below
Missing-vgc, hhi, vb, brv, akv-j

My guess: the sale on AKV burned through a lot of their inventory.

Since which building your ownership is in doesn't affect your 11 month booking rights (even though you have to make sure both are checked off when booking), it really doesn't matter which building is available. They're both AKV, for all intents and purposes.

There are way more Kidani contracts to sell than Jambo

Jambo is back!

With the exception of VGC we haven’t seen any ROFR activity on these for quite a while. I wonder how low would pass ROFR since there is only 16 years left for Feb, Mar and April use years and 17 for the others. Remember there are no points in 2042 issued.

We got BRV for $83/point, and after we did, someone else snagged a stripped contract for $60!

Wow that is low!! I bet it passes ROFR as well.

Yes! We passed!

I wonder if there was a glitch. I just checked and see it as an option.

Hot Take: VDH won’t sell out this decade….

This is primarily due to the transient tax, but GCH is also subject to the same tax - they just bury it into their annual dues. I think this helps keep the tax "out of sight, out of mind" for GCH buyers/owners.

Somehow, GCH still has lower annual dues ($8.80) than VDH ($9.82) despite that. Maybe because VDH has a slightly cheaper points chart?

Is it possible for VDH to change to change to the same scheme as GCH? If they did, would it help improve sales?

Yes, but Anaheim won’t allow that. When VGC was being developed, I believe negotiated a set transient tax fee vs based on the cost of rooms. That allowed VGC to incorporate the transient tax into the dues.

To be fair they could have incorporated the tax into dues like VGC as the tax is assessed per point. This would have caused dues per point to be quite large. With the way it is setup, like AUL, VDH owners can avoid the tax if something becomes available at 7 months at VGC or any other resort (assuming VDH are not resale owners). Most likely they will not as they bought that as a home resort to stay there but it provides an option to just pay the dues without having to fork over the extra $$ as well. VGC owners pay that tax (yes considering less) regardless of where they stay.

Fascinating to see the add on tool, as an International owner we just see an apologetic T-Rex
