We have decided to try and buy resale 125 to 150 points at BWV. I have read a lot of the info and I think I understand most everything. I have emailed the three resale companies with my request. From what I can see, the break point seems to be about $80 a point or Disney will ROFR it. I wonder if it will take a long time to find a seller. I really want something with points in Jan 2009. Anything else I can do besides the three resale companies?
Thanks,
Al
 
It sounds like you have your act together :thumbsup2 you've decided on the number of points to purchase, the home resort, and the use year. We did the same thing and Jaki and **** worked hard to find us exactly what we wanted--it took us 2 months to find the perfect listing. Actually they found us better than perfect and we are now waiting to pass ROFR. Be sure to watch the listings on the sites and sign up for email updates. If you find something, be sure to email and ask about it. We must have had **** crunch numbers for us on different listings more than a dozen times.

The only thing I can think of is to watch the # of current UY points and the # coming for the next UY. Sometimes we could find a listing in the right price per point but the contract was stripped, i.e. no points available this UY and no points coming next UY. Also if there are current UY points and you won't be able to use them be sure you have time to bank them or when you do your offer require the owner to bank them for you. We didn't think of that but **** caught it and advised us to add it to the offer. If there are points available in the current UY, it seems to be 'customary' for the offer to include you paying maintenance on these points, so your closing costs will go up. Be sure you know the TOTAL cost due at closing for each listing.

Sending you pixie dust :wizard: to find that perfect listing to call home.
