Importance of Home Resort?

Would there be any possibility for me to get BLT for the last two weeks of August at 7 months?

I would think it fairly easy to get BLT at 7 months out for anything other than a 3 BR for late Aug.

I think your chances for LV rooms is very good. SV and MK view may be tougher as those go pretty fast. But, since late August is a less busy DVC time, these might even be a possibility.

I booked BLT for the first week of August this summer and originally booked SV rooms. When I called back at 10 months, they were still there. At 7 months, the SV rooms (1 bedrooms) were gone as I was thinking about shifting my reservation a few days, but no problem getting LV.

The booking window is the main advantage but you also need to figure any differences in annual dues into your cost.

You have an 11 month booking window at your home resort versus 7 months at all other resorts. Also the cost of annual dues is different. These two things should be considered.
