I know it is a big purchase, but taking years to make a decision really confounds me. Especially if during that time you are spending big bucks at on site Disney hotels.
If you think you will go to Disney every other year, and you can be flexible and you like nice accommodations it feels like a pretty easy choice.
We made our decision within a few months of staying at our first DVC property at Vero Beach. We did the no pressure tour. We loved the setting, so we checked out OKW and BWV as well and did those room tours.
We put off a car purchase and bought DVC instead. We bought the minimum for a direct sale at the time. We took out a loan but paid it off quickly. We added on in cash later.
And never looked back.
If you are already spending your vacation dollars at WDW, it is not that scary of a purchase. 27 years later, I can still sell it for more than I paid for it.
I am happy we bought a smallish contract. That way we have never felt overburdened by it.
I an curious what makes it so hard
