Finally decided what to do for next years trip

[Dznypal]

We’ve been trying to figure out next yrs trip.
We like going the end of Jan ladt the thougj the weather was terrible. Last year Cold wet driving rain for the first 4 days. It was honestly better the last few days.
This yr was great the first few day. It was 90 degrees warmer from home it was minus 13 and low 80s there no rain and only one day that was only around 50
We only have a 100 point contract at the poly. For a full week it’s a125 points. So next year we’ll only have the 100 points so we’re short 25 points. Our thoughts were to buy a very small contract like 25 or even 50 which would cost over 11000 for a poly with our UY. Which is rather our budget. Book the 6 nights we have enough for and hope by 7 months I can book the 7 th night buying the one time points. Or bank and have 200 points for 2028. Or book a dou studio at the island tower.
So trying to make a long story short we decided to bank our points

So we decided to bank and going on a Mexican riveria cruise for early feb next yr.

But now as usual I need advice. I had banked the 7 points that we had extra from last year into next yr but now since there banked I know I can’t do anything more with them. Correct.
So just wondering if it be worth it to go through a broker to rent them. Or just let the expire.
I rented out points a few years ago and it was so very easy. But I had quite a few more points
Is it even worth trying to rent 7 points.
Or is there any other options.
Thanks

You’d need to add a few points to get at least one night for a rental.

Cruises are my favorite thing beside Disney!

Depending how much work you want to put into it…

7pts maybe a value of ~$100?

You could get interest as a transfer at good enough price. I’d probably try that at $100 in hopes to quickly and painlessly get it done and dusted. The nice thing about that is get your money asap and never have to think about it again because the points are gone from account. No reservations for you to babysit.

Or you can try buying OTUP to add to your 7pts and book a night to sell as a confirmed reservataion. But that turns it into something more complicated, initially more expensive for you, with increased risks, for maybe an extra $100.
