Hi.

How often, on average, does DVC offer add-on incentives? We just bought 150 points at SSR with the current referral discount, but will definately be needing more points in the future. However, I certainly don't want to pay full price! Also, once SSR is sold out, will they ever offer any more SSR add-on incentives?

Thanks!
 
Probably won't have any more incentives once they are sold out of a resort. But, maybe there will be one for AKL- although I think it'll sell quickly!
 
There will always be some discount as long as DVC is in active sales on the property. The discounts will vary, though. Could be $8 off per point...$10 off per point...free annual passes...free single day tickets...they tend to rotate the deals every 2-3 months.

But I agree that the incentives will stop once SSR is officially sold out. When that happens, the only way DVC will re-acquire points is through exercising its Right of First Refusal on resale contracts. In today's market, DVC might exercise ROFR on, say, points in the $80-85 range. DVC isn't going to pay $85 for someone else's points only to turn around and re-sell for $86.

The current price on sold-out resorts is $95 each. That will probably go up about $3 per point before SSR is sold out. And that's likely to be the price for SSR points after the sellout occurs.

That's not quite true, or at least not always. We are in the process of acquiring points, and my guide offered me HH @$87, OKW @$92, and BW@$95. BC & VB were also available but as I was not interested in 2042 resorts at this price, I did not note the prices. This was this week (Tues, I think).
 

Are you sure BC was available? I was just placed on the waitlist for BC.
