Welcome to the list!

Isn't it great knowing you'll be going back to WDW and staying at your favorite resorts time and time again.

Sorry about the delay on adding you to the list, I don't have a trip planned right now, so hanging out on the boards is a little sad for me.

It does exist, but DVC can't send any info out to you unless you live in ON. You can still purchase when you are at WDW/DL or through a reseller that's licensed in your area.
Where do you live and what resort were you looking at purchasing at? Also who told you it doesn't exist?

you can add us to the list too! We purchased back in November and have our first trip on June 1st!

We had decided to buy on the way home to NS a few yrs ago. We did all the work via email and phone with our DVC representative we met on the DVC tour, even had our application and credit check completed. Once it was complete, we 'had' to fly down to finalize it. It was a sacrifice, but we did it (coincidently it was SSW and wine and food festival)

Congrats on the purchase! Where are you staying?

You were on the list already! The list is on the first page.

but hoping to be!

Just got back from a week stay at the Poly- my kid's first trip to WDW!

Of course, they have at least 3-4 resorts cued up for the next trips

My DH actually passed by one of the DVC booths AND STOPPED TO TALK to the CM!!! He NEVER does this! He said that if the kids want to keep coming here and we want to take them on vacay (something we both never really did growing up) then we should investigate further!!

We took the tour on our last night there and was impressed. Saw the AKV and BLT rooms. Now the hard part: choosing a home resort and of course, paying for it.

As fellow canucks, do you think resale is the way to go? or thru disney? Also, I've read a few of the posts- and finding that securing a loan up here is better...yes?

I'm lucky in that I live in Ontario, I guess!

 

[braydensmom]

Looking at buying into DVC, have stayed at SSR and AKV, several times now. Before I call in to recieve information, would anyone like to be my referrer? Just PM me

 

[stefanospops]

I already went through the sales pitch when we were there in September. Does that mean I can't have someone refer me now? We are contemplating this quite seriously at the moment. Also, is the guide the same person as our salesperson?

My understanding is that referral needs to happen during the first contact with DVC. Yes, your guide is your salesperson. We bought resale and our only contact with our guide the voice mail he leaves us asking about add-ons when we visit on points.

You sure you weren't talking to someone from Universal? I joke.
Add me to the list...see y'all at BLT.

"Guide" is Disney speak for salesperson"

I bought from Disney, Jan07.
I am not a patient person, and wanted my points NOW.
My guide was able to get me what I wanted (150 points at BWV, Aug UY), within a few days of contacting him.
I managed to get all of the previous years points too.
That being said, if you are patient, and willing to wait for a re-sale to pass
ROFR, there are many great deals out there.
The financing thing, I don't know about, all I can say is get as many points as you can possibly afford, split the points into two smaller contracts if possible, and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy

Any or all of you are welcome to use me as a referral.
My guide now is Nick Coton, new since I purchased, so I have never really delt with him.
PM me if you need any more information.

My understanding is that referral needs to happen during the first contact with DVC.

I spoke with my salesperson and he advises that the referral does not need to happen before first contact. Their reasoning is that someone may come through DVC on their own, then as they do their research and start talking to others who are passionate about the club those people are more likely to join and Disney wants to thank those passionate referrers.

This said I am not sure if I should wait to see if incentives improve after June 15 or take what they have now. The Disney Cruise sounds like a nice incentive. Will keep everyone posted! I need to evaluate the resale market further before committing to BLT.

Just bought 270 points today so you can officially add me to the list... or should you wait for the 10 day rescission period to lapse? BLT in last week of February, here we come!
