DVC Value Calculator

Right, if the link still worked I wouldn't have asked. It may be a long shot but it could save me quite a bit of time.

I did download it at the time but I couldn’t find it in my downloads.

There have been similar versions over the years. Let me see if I can find one or two….

Thank you for checking.

This forum is a wealth of information. I joined just a couple weeks ago. What started out as looking into renting points to be more economical is evolving into me considering DVC ownership given how expensive 1+ bed villas can get and how hard they are to come by via renting. Plus, the rack rates are just bananas!

I realize this thread is ~2.5 years old, but does anyone have a copy of the file? Thanks!

Welcome! There sure is alot to learn around here.

Played a big role in our DVC journey from renting to buying resale and then finally buying direct. We’ve hit the stage of outgrowing studios and are now booking 1BRs - which has the advantage of being easier to book other resorts at 7 months. So much easier than studios lol.

Your journey seems very logical and one our household could go down at some point. I've seen a few contracts listed on https://www.dvcforless.com/ that got my gears turning, hence searching the forum for breakeven tools. A combination of the time and money to find a room at a WDW resort 9+ months ahead of time, learning about the DVC resale market, and reading threads on this forum has gotten me to take DVC membership more seriously. I still have more to read on the topic, including how it has changed for better or worse. It's a big commitment, but it's one we may be willing to make if our family likes Disney as much as I did growing up.

If nothing else, I enjoy learning and I can appreciate the strategy involved to making the most out of a Disney vacation.
