DVC Resales.....

How do resales work?

DH and I are interested in purchasing into DVC. We are taking out first DVC trip this October on rented points. We would like to buy into Boardwalk, so I know that we would definitely need a resale....

Look at the DVC resale link at the top of this page. Basically, with resale you are responsible for closing costs (around $500) It takes a bit longer sometimes. DVC as Right Of First Refusal (ROFR) meaning they can buy it out from under you if they think you are getting it too cheap (seems to be very arbitrary on their part) You have to get your own financing.

Otherwise it can be a great deal and you can get more points than you could by paying full price through Disney.

Just make sure you look at the status of the points before you dive in...all sales are not equal (buying a share that has already borrowed and used next years points Vs. a same quantity share that has last years banked + this years available)

Time Share Store has a lot of excellent reccomendations from these boards...talk to them and to us and see what works best for you!

you don't necessarily Have to go the resale route just because you want BWV. . .

You can contact Disney directly and ask to be put on the waiting list for BWV--you would have to purchase a minimum of 150 pts, however. . .
