Add-on waitlist deposit needed?

[MiaSRN62]

Interested in adding on BCV but need to waitlist. Will I need a deposit (if so how much) to get on the waitlist?
thanks

Usually when they wait list you they take a credit card number and take payment in full when the points come through. You don't need to pay anything until then.

Wait list for BCV is currently closed. I would suggest looking at resale contracts. Many have reported this previously but I know it is the case. When our DVC guide called about the Poly add on offer I asked about the current prices at sold out resorts because of the rumour about them increasing that day. He told me BCV and BWV had gone up $5 to $160 but that the wait list for BCV was still closed.

Thank you....another question then. Say I wait-listed for another sold out DVC? Say BLT? If I want a 50 point add-on, provide my credit card number, I have to pay this ALL upfront?? I can't finance a 50 point add-on on a DVC waitlist? Pretty sure I don't have any credit card with THAT much open credit right now.

Thank you for the info on BCV. I just came off the Fantasy cruise on Feb 6. During the DVC meet they said we can "waitlist for any sold out DVC". Guessing that incorrect information was provided on the ship then. They were, of course, heavily pushing the Poly.

We We're told you can't organise Finance from a distance that it has to be done in person at the SSR centre.

I have added on twice from home and financed? One time was 100 points and the other time was 50 points?
My confusion is can this be done when on a waitlist for a sold out DVC property?

You can still finance when on a waitlist. You may finance any amount of 50 points or more. We waitlisted for BWV points a few years back. When the points became available our guide called and used our credit card for the down payment. She then processed the paperwork for the financing and fedexed everything to us. The points were in our account the next day.

THANK YOU! This is what I was wondering. So I provide a credit card that DVC holds and does not charge until my resort becomes available. Then the deposit is placed on that card and the rest financed. It's been 5 years since I did an add-on. Anyone recall the downpayment required for a 50 or 100 point add-on? Still deciding on the amount. THANKS!

Sorry I don't remember the deposit amount. A call to your guide would most likely answer all of your questions. Things seem to change constantly with regards to add-ons.
