BLT Resale Value - unchanged after new rules?

[jcf]

I think the loss of a few perks outside of Disney will have little impact on BLT's resale value. I actually think when they announce it is sold out and Disney is no longer offering any deals that the price will be higher than it is now on the resale market.

Likely the price of resale will change for ALL resorts or remain the same as the perks are on all resorts not just one. The resale of BLT will likely go up or down depending on how many resale contrcats are for sale. From seeing past resorts once they are sold out they go down in price as the more owners there are the more reslaes there are for normal and forced reasons.
In fact when SSR was new some were buying smaller contracts using the double developer points and selling them for the same or more then what they paid.

Honestly I don't think the changes are going to affect resale prices that much overall.

Sure the market is going to be soft for a couple of months post 3/20 - because the resale market is really moving right now with every one trying to get in before the deadline. Essentially this change is sucking up a lot of the pent up demand in the market so naturally things are going to slow down.

Many are trying to get in but just as many are getting out. Historically when the Disney hype about a resort ends, the resales increase and the prices fall. I expect a renewed push by Disney to sell AKV.

The one kink IMO is that a high demand resort (like BCV) can defy what has happened with other resorts. BLT may be another one since it's likely to be the only resort within walking distance to MK for quite awhile. It also has longer contracts than BCV ever had giving it another edge to go against the grain. Once DVC sells out they also may need points to sell and start executing ROFR.

I have no idea what this means, but I saw a BLT resale clear ROFR at $87.50 a few days ago. And it was a small contract, 100 points, I believe.

I also saw that a BLT resale supposedly cleared for $87.50 a point, which would be a great price for BLT. However, the buyer hasn't posted any specifics on Donald is #1's thread about the deal, such as the number of points available, who pays closing, and who pays the maintenance fees. Keep in mind that not all resales are the same and it can be misleading if you try to determine the 'value' of the contract just by the cost per point. Case in point: On 2/18/2011, the Timeshare Store's email listing of resales showed a 50-point BLT deed available for $96 a point. However, the deed is stripped of all points until 2/1/2013. Since its not uncommon to get a resale deed that still has points available for the 2010, 2011, and 2012 Use Years, a deed that is stripped of points until 2013 should have less 'value.'

I suspect the overall economy will have a much larger factor in resale prices for all resorts than the change announced.
