i don't know the exact answers to your questions but i can tell you that you buy in to the vacation club for points that are then used for future vacations...i believe that there are annual fees as well....
you may want to try and post your question on disney vacation club forum...

Hi!
right now the cost per point is $75.
minimum points you can buy is 150.
annual dues vary with whichever home resort you buy at. but it ranges from a little over $3 to almost $4 a point annually. for instance, I own 300 points at OKW, and my annual dues are $915 a year.
currently there is only inventory at VWL available, however you can look into a resale at BWV, OKW, Vero Beach or HH. they are less money per point, but you need to go through a realestate agent for that,
If you go on the DVC board, they can help youout, even give you the name and # of a great agent a lot of them used for resales.

we belong to dvc since 1997, although we own at OKW, we have never stayed there!! we used points at the GF, and now that we go to WDW more often, we use our points at a home resort (cause they go much further that way) we love the BWV, so we stay there on our points, and then we pay $$$ for our other stays with annual pass discounts, for instance this year our trips to the GF, YC, and the Poly, we paid cash for, and our two longer vacations we use points for at the BW.!!!

we love dvc, it is awesome, and in our opinion the best thing we ever did!!! we would never get to wdw so often without it!!!

yes, it's a lot of money at first, but they have payment plans, and think about how much a resort will cost in 10 or 20, even 30 years! It will be outrageous, and your points wll be all paid off, and it will feel like you're going for free!!!
It is a phenomenal long term investment, to guarantee lots of happy vacations in the future, whether you choose to always go to WDW, or other places on the list, and believe me, there are a ton of choices!!!

go on the DVC board, you'll learn a lot!!! but it truly is wonderful!!! feel free to e-mail or PM me, if you have any questions!!!

If you have any specific DVC questions, I'd be happy to try to answer them either through email (you have my address) or when we get together at WDW on August 4th. If you have some time when you're at WDW, go ahead and take the tour.

Thanks so much everyone. You all are great.

hi: you can also read through the faq and then post if you have any questions. i think the biggest gripe you'll hear about dvc is the regret of not buying in sooner.
