Does anyone know the answer to this question? (WA state add-on issue)

[mamatojon]

We live in WA state and when we bought DVC last trip they made it very clear that if we wanted to do an add-on it would have to be done while we were in FL due to WA's timeshare laws, we could not add-on by phone/mail.

What I'm wondering is if that is just something that the timeshare seller (DVC) is limited by or if I could purchase a smaller add-on contract privately or through The Timeshare Store - would I be able to do this while in WA? I'm thinking about adding on maybe 25 to 50 points somewhere (not really important to me where) and I would like to take advantage of lower resale prices than the 92-98 per pt that Disney charges.

And what is it with WA's weird timeshare laws anyways? I mean I understand that they are for our protection and everything, but if I solicit it I should be able to purchase. GRRR...

I don't know the answer to your question, but thought you could PM T.E. Yeary and ask him. He posts here every so often and is a broker/owner of the Timesahre Store - a sponsor of this board. Here's a link to his public profile:

I'm sure he wouldn't mind answering your question. There is a link to the Timeshare Store's Website at the top of the page.

Best wishes-

I live in WA state too and have purchased 2 diff. pieces of DVC through 2 different resalers this year and no problems.

hope this helps!

You can buy any resale you want...you just can't buy directly from DVC. We live in Vancouver, WA and bought our resale from a private party and had no problems at all. Good luck
