Do you all rent points out almost every year to cover some of the cost?

Nope - I don’t…

Some of us definitely do that, but maybe not all.

Not really the plan. Main goal is to make magic memories with family and close family friends. Plus there is this.....

 

[Bellecruiser]

We use every point every year. I would like to start renting some out.

Our most recent resale contract just loaded to my account bringing us up to 1,080 points. 255 direct Riviera, 300 direct Grand Floridian, 200 resale Bay Lake Tower, 325 resale Copper Creek.

Two weeks ago on the way back from Hollywood Studios to the Beach Club. Famous last words: "Let's get out of the Skyliner and look at the DVC rooms in the Riviera. We don't have to buy right away." ;-)

315 VGF, 220 SSR, 150 BVC, 150 CCR, 160 AKL, 150 RIV

1.145 points

We've gifted to some friends/family traveling with us, but never rented out.

Ive got another 200 RIV points taking me to 3,700

I think I have a problem....

good lord have mercy. I'm just thinking of how long that would equate to in nights at just say SSR consecutively barring night limits. do you mind my asking how that breaks down? thanks for your time!

An 'average' studio week at SSR is ~107pts (with proper weighting for season and room category distribution), so that would be 34 weeks and 4 nights (242 nights). Though there may not be any one week where you can spend exactly 107 points.

1BR (~220pts/wk) would be 16 weeks and 5 nights (117 nights).
2BR (~287pts/wk) would be 12 weeks and 6 nights (90 nights).
3BR GV (~616pts/wk) would be 6 weeks (42 nights).
Treehouse (~332pts/wk) would be 11 weeks and 1 night (78 nights).

You could use the points a lot faster or slower depending on views and season, too.

My home resorts are

Aulani - 300
BLT - 555
PVB - around 300
RVA - 300
VGF - 600
SSR - the rest

I had intended to sell some of my points after buying other points for various reasons. (Within the last few years, I bought significant points on resale to change use year for one resort and bought direct at VGF2 to replace my resale points because the initial promotional price for VGF2 for current DVC members was so attractive.). But I like the planning flexibility having a lot of extra points provides, and I can rent those points I don’t use, so for the moment I’m holding on to a big stash. I did just treat some friends and family to a very special visit at WDW, which shows the danger of excess points. LOL.

 

[macman123]

And just nabbed another contract

This takes me now to a total of 4,000. I think that is where I will stay!

 

[Arguetafamily]

I want to be like you guys We have 919…almost but no cigar

 

[NVDISFamily]

We passed ROFR on the latest batch of points. Two contracts at AKV and one at CCV. This also adds the only Peter Dominick resort we were missing (we love them).

520 VGC
600 RIV
250 CCV
260 AKV

1630 Total.

Wowzer! 4000. I thought I read the limit was 2000 but maybe that was per resort. Is there a limit? Not that I’ll be reaching it…

I hear Poly tower and DLH calling.......

The weakness for all of us on the west coast. I do hope the point chart is awesome.

I have it on good authority that VDH going on sale will see another crazy person join us here on the 1000 point club
