Disadvantages of a resale????

[Jon99]

Our first choice for DVC would be VWL, but they are obviously sold out... What are the disadvantages of going thru the resale market???? Price is cheaper, but can they arrange financing for us???

Jon99, sounds like you may have made up your mind

Resale disadvantage for VWL is that it's relatively new and you don't see a lot of properties listed, and they're probably not going
to go for the $60-$65 rate unless the poor seller is willing to take a pretty deep bath.

I don't know about financing; I believe most say it won't beat Disney's rate.

But (and a very big one), don't jump onto a resale for another DVC property just to get in if you have your heart set on VWL. The 4 month booking window advantage is an important one to consider if you buy other than where you really want to stay.

Good Luck!

While we like the VWL the best, I sure wouldn't lose any sleep staying at the BCV, looks like a first class place and with a location that can't be beat...

I would reccommend that if you are thinking you want to stay at BCV, you should buy there. The only resort that can be easily gotten into at the 7 month window is OKW.
