BLT and PVB value in 10 years

[MountainMouse]

Which do you think will cost more per point resale in 10 years, BLT or Poly?

BLT, if you have ever stayed at the Poly, you would not ask such a question.

Depends if they build a second tower at BLT. No, wait, no it doesn't. BLT. That's my bet.

What's wrong with Poly? I have stayed at the resort but not the villas, I liked it. Later on when Epcot becomes more of an attraction for my family it will be even more appealing I think.

I think BLT "could" hold more value, but it depends on how/when they go about the refurb process.

As for POLY, I am very curious to see what happens over the next 5-7 years as the contracts begin to hit the resale market in mass (just a fact of life, they will). I have a feeling that people "may" be a little surprised/shocked that they go for quite a bit less than VGF and BLT.

 

[MountainMouse]

Folks seem to have a different take than me. My guess is that they will be close but that PVB will be worth slightly more. I'm a BLT owner so I hope I'm wrong.

BLT... Bc of the room size options plus walking to MK.

That being said, if I ever stay in a studio, I am staying at poly due to the size.

However, we are more 1 and 2bd people. That's just my guess....

BLT. And for the same reason it's seeing a resurgence in it price.

Of the three Monorail resorts it's large and has more variety in room types. GF is small and it's studios are hotly contested. As much as people like the resort this is one of the biggest complaints about it. Poly is large but really does not have variety in its room types. It will be popular with empty nesters and people with very young children but those with large families or older children will ultimately not like the fact that they can't get the elbow room without a second room. BLT will have something for everyone and it'll be the only one on the Monorail that does.

Unknown and IMO it doesn't matter, buy where you love to stay to obtain maximum enjoyment of your Disney vacations.

The resale prices can go down as fast as they go up. A few years ago we sold some contracts and took a $10,000 loss.

Agreed on the purchase where you want to stay. It's still interesting to get folks take on the value of the resorts. It seems there is a lot of dislike for PVB and I think that stems from the lack of 1BR and affordable 2BR options. I also think folks are disappointed that the point cost is as high as VGF. But it's a really nice resort with some perks that BLT can't match.

I think all 3 will command a similar price because of all being on the monorail. Some people will want studios and go for PVB, some people will want the larger units and go for BLT, and some people will insist on staying at VGF for the luxurious feel, so it depends on the buyer, but I think all 3 will stay high and similar in price.

BLT because of lower points, more room types and lower MF. Side by side all else equal it'd be the Poly but it isn't.

While I think BLT is the better deal and would personally rather own there than at the POLY, I think POLY will have a higher resale value because the POLY has less points available at the resort. BLT has around 5.6 million points and POLY around 4.0 million points. Assuming that there are fans of both, just as there are fans of both BWV and BCV, then POLY/BLT could behave the same as BCV/BWV with the smaller resort getting a high resale value.

I still thank there is a chance of them building something new at Poly on the west side of the property near (or at the location) of the current Luau Cove. Which could drastically increase the number of points available at the Poly.

If that were to happen and the POLY ended up with more points than BLT, than BLT would probably sell for more.

Likely not mostly because purchase price does have some significance in what people are willing to sell for and there are no major other forces driving the price down there even if there are a lot more points.

The resale buyer is not as much of an impulse buyer. Poly is too much like a niche at this point having only studios. That will not appeal to the generations of timeshare owners used to having their vacations feel like a hone and not a hotel room.
