Contemp DVC models are ready!!!

[Prinny27]

Just wanted to add that DH talked to our guide a few hours ago and she mentioned that the guides have all been told to put in their vacation time for the summer now, because it's going to be VERY busy there this summer, so she thinks it's because they're releasing BLT. WOO HOO!

I am wondering when the rumors get real heavy how many people will look to sell current contracts in order to buy in

I am not interested in buying into BLT but wouldnt mind scooping up some smaller point BCV contracts that come available.

not sure.

can't see selling BCV for BLT. love them both. but BCV is really popular.

considering you will be paying more for BLT - would have to really hate BCV to sell it for this.

Since I am single and go in mostly in value season, I'd probably sell off some of my current points if I decided to buy into BLT. I'd like to have the 11 month option there.

I think I missed something here! What is BLT?

 

[justloveit]

I believe Bay Lake Towers.

This is OUR dilemma. While we think Kidani will be awesome and love AKV, we DO want to sell our pts. there if BLT is announced. That said, we're not sure if it would be best to sell it now or wait until a BLT announcement. The question is, when would we get a better price for it. Just don't know what to do............

Bay Lake Towers is the Name de jour of the big building next to CR under construction. You may know it as the rumored CRV or that "place that must not be named"

Why not buy more? We had been going back and forth on how many points to buy at AKV (we just bought in) and we decided to buy the minimum, even though we're looking at having 300+ points, eventually. The theory is that we get 160 at AKV, buy 160 when BLT opens. If BLT never comes, we can always add-on to AKV.

I would assume that isn't an option for some (or most), but if it's possible, then you'd have more vacation points, and multiple homes!

So when did that name come into play?

a dvc resort on the monrail.

We heard rumors that a second DVC resort at DLR would also be the second monorail DVC resort. I think that rumor supports the BLT as a DVC resort.

 

[Mickey'sApprentice]

BLT became the new rumored name last week sometime.

I think the Orlando Sentinel, (but could have been a DISSER) found some paperwork that specifically mentioned a timeshare resort next to the Contemporary Resort that would be named Bay Lake Tower.

Hopefully somebody will give us some more precise info here. That was straight from memory of what I read here on the DIS.

If you sell now and have 08 points available you might make out OK since Kidani is only selling 09 points currently.

Good point. We do. My only worry would be that BLT would sell out to current members only.

This is the same thing I'm worried about! We are at WDW right now and went to a DVC presentation on Sunday. There are lots of incentives to buy into SSR & several times I heard that it's suppose to sell out this month. I think - though no one ever actually said it, of course - that they are waiting for SSR to sell out to release BLT. DH and I didn't buy in because we're taking our chances on getting in at BLT. We decided that the first day it's available, we're calling to get a contract on it. I just hope it's not a mistake to wait since I guess it's possible it could sell out to members only. We even tossed around the idea of buying at SSR and adding on at BLT, but there's no way we can do that right now. I guess we'll just hope for the best!

I really doubt it will sell out to existing members. It is a medium sized resort, and there will be a LOT of points.

Totally agree. Even if the only release 200 units to DVC it will be hard to sell out in a month with the state of the economy. Most of the Tax Relief checks have come and gone.

I visited the kiosk at Adventurland in mid April. The two guides there became heated when I said I was waiting for the DVC Contemporary before buying. One of them became a little argumentative and hostile. They were trying to deny it was happening, which was hard to do considering the building was more than half framed. Then the older guide tried to scare me with future price increases. I countered with how important I think the 11 month window will be at the Contemporary.

The older guide never gave up trying to sell me SSR points. he really seemed desperate. I was embarrassed for him and politely said good bye.

Not likely to happen ... I'm sure there will be plenty of points available.

 

[bookwormde]

To sell out the average current member would have to buy about 25 points or 20% would have to buy 125 points. I do not really think that is likely.
