Dvc rental store

[Mouseforward]

It was under $1k, haven’t gotten a tax form yet.

I got a online notification of the form from www.dvcrentalstore.com end of January this year - but it was for $5k

Update: Just checked. dvcrentalstore.com has upped their payout for reservations less than 7 months out to a whopping $14/point! LOL.

I guess they can do that since they are charging more than Disney rack rates lol.

Out of points so I was going to rent some to supplement my stay and they were $38.62 more a night without the cancellation policy. If I wanted to select the "Cashback Protection" it added an extra $100.

Of course going through Disney doesn't cost anything extra for cancellation peace of mind.

Was that for renting points or the swap program?

Renting points , but since @HyperspaceMountainPilot got cash that would be a point rental not a swap.

I probably wouldn’t request on both sites at the same time or you might lose a deposit. If you’re requesting something more than 7 months out, it is hard to say which one will be better. The only resorts where I have seen dvcrentalstore.com paying owners more than dvcrequest.com are BCV and CFW (paying $19/point). Every other resort, dvcrequest.com pays either the same or more. So, I would think that would attract more owners to dvcrequest.com, but it is really impossible to say with any certainty. Many owners renting through them are probably less concerned about getting top dollar for their points and more about the easiness of the process.

So, maybe if I were in your shoes, I’d try dvcrequest.com first? I say that with low confidence. I hope you get it though!

Thank you so much for this info! It’s neither of those resorts and it’s 11 months out! So fingers crossed. I appreciate the advice

Ok update from dvc rental store so hopefully this can help someone else

They cannot actually try to get you a reservation/match until you pay a deposit. They are waiting for someone to “claim the reservation” it’s been 7 days…..she said a few resale dvc contract ppl tried but it has to be direct dvc so they weren’t able to. We could lose availability in the process

David’s is closed but I am going to call them tomorrow to see if their process works the same.

I feel like I should’ve submitted on both sites and went with whoever had the match first. I’m so worried I’m going to lose it completely

I know that as someone who used to rent my points that I'm spooked. I imagine a great deal of Members are not willing to risk Disney's wrath by renting.
