It's Almost 2026, Would You Buy a 2042 Resort?

Why do I see value in the coming years for BCV/BWV in the next 15ish years. I have to believe as we near expiration, more folks that are buying recently to stay where they love is going to be make the 7 month even tighter. As others have shared, if people use their BCV/BWV almost exclusively for their points, there will be less slack in the system.

We'd dismissed 2042s when we bought into DVC. But having stayed at both BCV and BWV, I can totally see the appeal and will admit to perusing those contracts occasionally.

I just hope they are still affordable and not overpriced. At some point soon it will be cheaper to rent than to buy.

I’ve been told it’s always a slow time of year.

I follow only certain listings when they come available and every one I follow sells very quick some as quick as 1 hour, some take a week or two. I don’t see time of listings on market to be any different than 6 months ago. The only caveat is I am not following overpriced SSR, OKW or AKV’s.

Most Boardwalk’s I follow are selling even though they are a 2042.

I follow from the day they get listed I don’t just go and look at listings times. I save them and note the time and date, I don’t use aggregator listing times shown.

I think we might be following different resorts. You know, I can still see BWV selling well due to the point charts, even with the short expiration. I'm sure many people have done the math. But my eyes are in the other direction, either MK area (Poly, BLT, CCV) or west coast. At this point, I'm full up on SAP points. I've been keeping dates as well. I figure around the one-month mark a seller--or at least a few of them--if their contract hasn't sold, might start to look at offers around 15-20% off a little more welcomingly. And I'm surprised that I'm seeing contracts that I think are priced well sitting online without selling for that long, but I'm seeing it happen. I've got one right now I'm just waiting for it to hit the one month marked (presently priced $1pp below the DFL average). But we're looking in two different areas. Over on Crescent Lake, I can be tempted by Beach Club, but only for the lazy river. The lazy river goes along way toward making the resort for me. But all of the rooms in the EPCOT area, including RIV, at least for me, push the button just slightly of: this feels a little like a work trip. Whereas I never get that vibe over at Poly, CCV, and to a lesser extent BLT. But to each their own. We're all looking for our own things.

It's interesting how people value things differently. I might hit up the pool one day max at Beach Club. It isn't my focus at the resort. I like it, but it's not why I like Beach Club. I value the proximity, plus I just like the feel of the resort!
