Thank you!

We are new owners, since April 09. We started with a small amount of points. After we made our initial purchase we realized we would definitely need more, so 2 add ons later here we are at 1000. It’s all at BLT.

Wow, that was fast, congratulations!

We are waiting for our SSR points to show up, then I'll be posting here.

I'm so jealous! Of course, I'm not jealous of your maintenance fees.

Good job all!

Hey - I'm just jealous you all HAVE POINTS - be it 25 or 1000+! I just can't seem to pull the trigger yet. Getting close...

 

[tomandrobin]

Yes! I get it!!!

Congrats on making the Club!!

Congrats on making the Club!!

Still premature, I'm afraid. I was laughing at the "joke" of posting here. Our seller is gravely ill, and the papers are not with her, she's in the hospital. Her family is trying to straighten things out. We hope to hear that the papers have been delivered, and that the points are truly "ours".

I just realized that MF for 1000 points is almost like paying the taxes on a house!

I too am envious of your points but not the MF. I guess it all evens out in the end since you are able to stay a lot more days at WDW than the rest of us.

Congratulations to all of you.

Yes, it's the taxes/mf that really make it feel like a "home." Still, in spite of that, we think the cost of staying at a BC at VB is worth the price! MF's are a lot less than really owning the oceanfront property! Our Cape May house is .9 miles from the beach, just not the same as we feel when we're at VB!!!

Oh dear. So sad for both you and the seller and the seller's family. I think this one needs extra, extra pixie dust.

You're so kind, I'm sure the seller's family appreciates the sentiments even more than we do.

For us its the darn air fares that kill us. MF is minor even if we had 1000 points. We also have a beach house in the Outer Banks and are about 800 feet to the water so we do not need Vero.

And our taxes on a 2200 sq foot house in CT is about $12,000 per year with no trash / bus / or town services. The house in the outer banks which is closer to 4000 sq feet has a tax of only $3100. Go figure.

Thanks, Jean!

It is likely that DS's family will be moving to Florida, south of Jacksonville. That means we have to sort out just how we'll be using the points with them, it could mean that they will be joining us for more weekends...until this time, our weekend points have mostly been in studios. Do they want to join us for NYE in 2010? Fun, but do we have enough points for all this? I don't know...first things first, let's hope they sell their house and find something, especially good schools for the DGCs!

At least they'll qualify for Florida rate annual passes, and since we don't live in Florida, we can't buy them, can we?
