BWV release of more pts

[paults]

need help! If we want to add on 100 pts BWV (MB) for august uy, when is the best time to do this . We have 150 august BWV now but want more (go figure) We don't want to pay a full year for dues if we don't have to.

Is it really true that only people on the wait list for BWV will have first choice? How about BWV owners not on the wait list, are we getting the second choice (I hope)?

It's been posted that current owners are elligible so contact your guide. I find it hard to believe they would shut out current owners even if they don't own BWV but it's their call. You will pay prorated dues for the year from the DATE YOU SIGN, not when you close. If you hurry, you may be able to get the 2002 points and/or either bank them or use MB. Good luck.

Our guide Humberto was out of the office yesterday, but I spoke to Bernard about this. He told me that the points go on sale tomorrow 4/20 to all current DVC members. At the end of the month the points will become available to the public, but he did not think that there would be any points available by then. He said that at this time they have all use years available. But of course, that could change at any time once they go on sale. We already have 500 points and we are going to add 200 more. You would think we have enough, but we always seem to use them and are looking for more. (aka - borrowing ) I would say, if you really want more points it is best to buy them now. Bernard was laughing about us knowing about this already. He said word really gets around fast on the Internet.

Good Luck!

We don't own at BWV, but got a call from our guide about this. We really don't need anymore points, but I am almost tempted! Anyone know what the payment would be on 100 new points with Magical Beginnings? Diana

I think someone posted the current rate for Disney is 9.75%.
If you put down 20%, $1680 of which $1000 would be from MB.
Then $6720 for 5 years at 9.75% = $141.95 month plus dues which would be about $34 - 35 a month on 100 points.
Hummm.... I might call myself, can never have too many points.

paults, if you want to do MB w/ an August UY, i believe you have to act fast!
i think you only have until April 30th to get MB and 2002 points.

now seems like the best time for people w/ an Aug UY to do MB, 'cause you only have to pay 4 months of dues on the 2002 points you sell back.

i don't think they're "shutting out" current DVC Members that don't own BWV. there have been reports here that some BWV owners were already able to add-on earlier this week.
but i believe all non-BWV owners must wait until tomorrow to buy though.

Just to clarify, and I am guilty of helping to spread his too, any of us who added on last week, really only put our order in. Today is the actual day any of us are buying add-ons.

Friday night, I spoke to my DVC rep, Linda and she put us in for 100 points at BWV! That puts us over 700 points. We needed the extra points rolleyes: ) because we borrowed for the past few years with extra vacations and cruises. Now, we have enough!

We purchased 1/2 on a credit card (to get the reward points) and the other half at a one year loan, 4.75% finance rate. We also received $1000 credit because of magical beginnings.

Sitting pretty til 2042!

That's right Laura, if you put down 50%, you can actually end up with a 4.95%/yr APR.

Even more reason to utilize that Disney Rewards (or another rewards card for that matter) and end up with a lower rate on the remaining balance.

oh, so there is another tier of financing available?

so its:

10% down, 10.75% (3, 5, 7, or 10 Years)
20% down, 9.75% (3, 5, 7, or 10 Years)
50% down, 4.75% (1 Year)

is that it? any other options?

Yup, I just got some of the information materials from Judy Kaufman and it shows the examples for 20% & 50%, but below in the smaller writing it states that ...."Note: A total down payment of at least 10%, 20%, 30% or 50% is required depending on the finance option choice."
