Can points be rented very last minute?

[jenncsw]

Hi,
I have decided on a last minute trip to disney, and would like to rent points for OKW or similar. However, the dates are less than 7 days away.
I'd appreciate any info.
I have rented points before, SSR for a week in may of last year.
Thanks
Jenn S

The only thing that would hold things up are Availablity and transfer on funds for those points. But other then that no The rentee could call that day and make the ressie for you.

Go ahead and post on the Rent/Trade board, but just be aware that the first part of December has probably been completely booked for months at all DVC resorts. It's one of the most popular times of the year for DVCers.

You might get lucky and find someone renting a pre-existing reservation that they can't use, but I think it's a real long shot. Sorry.

Like Lynne said, this is a very busy time of year. Even if someone has points that they have to get rid off (meaning a low price per point), there probably isn't any availability for the next few weeks. There have been waiting lists for most of those days. If you are looking for a weekend (Fri and Sat), you might find something, but you'll spend a lot more for the reservation since points are much higher on the weekend.
