BLT add-ons

[Melani]

How hard will it be to get a BLT 25 point add-on?

We're still trying to find what we want resale. Hoping to close by late Dec'08 - early Jan'09. Do you think I'll be able to get an add-on from Disney for such a small amount?

I believe you can add-on 25 pts with no problem -- however it's a minimum for 50 to qualify for financing. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

You are correct. Also, if you add-on direct from Disney there are no closing costs.

25-point add-on = cash on delivery. No financing under 50 points.

Can I use my Disney Visa and earn reward points on the purchase?

I put in an offer today & the seller accepted. Now I'm waiting on paperwork. How long will it take to find out if we pass ROFR?

I paid for our AKV add-on with a credit card and then paid that off when due. Nice to get cash back on the purchase!

I would not recommend the credit card unless you plan on paying off the balance of course.

Well as a matter of fact - I even created a credit card ledger similar to a checkbook ledger using a spreadsheet, to carry in my wallet. I have one line for every $5 of our budget for the week. Every time I make a purchase I cross out the appropriate number of lines and note where I spent the money and tuck the reciepts in behind the ledger. Then at the end of the week I check my cards activity online against my ledger and make a bank transfer.

This may sound extreme, but I found out the hard way spending could get out of hand with credit cards, but those reward cards are so tempting. Now if I could just figure out a way to pay my sons' tuition on the Visa - even more points!

Could you please teach my sister how to do that! LOL

We bought a resale from The Timeshare Store and from the day our offer was accepted until the day we were in the Disney system was 33 days! It was the longest month EVER!

FWIW, we paid cash, no financing, and I think that expedited the process.
