DVC Purchase Calculator?

[Petit_Rose]

Hi there!

Does anyone know of a calculator that will calculate the initial costs of a DVC purchase?

TIA

It's a simple calculation.
The number of points times the cost at the resort you are purchasing.

CCV $182 a point 125 points = $22,750

There is also a minor closing cost, a few $100 bucks.

For a resale purchase, closing costs would be a couple hundred dollars higher... (but cost per point would be lower).

Also wanted to add a plug for the DVC Resource thread stickied at the top of the forum.

Lots of information, including historical annual dues.

Maintenance Fees definitely factor in, as does the year of expiration, and other intangibles. I also calculate the estimated total costs over 10, 20, and 30 year periods and compare to an estimate of what the costs would be to stay in WDW without DVC.
I realized payback/break-even in year 7 on our initial purchase, based on that comparison.
