Not Sure, Should I Sell One or Keep Both?

[Alice-in-wonder]

Have a small 50 pt contract at ssr and a larger one at blt. I don't know if it is wise to keep both, we would be spending more time at blt. Is it possible to use ssr points for our blt reservation at the 7 month mark?

Sell or keep what???? If you have two different resorts and find you can't use your points efficiently because of it, I'd probably sell one and buy more points at the one you are staying at most.

You can currently use all of your points at any DVC resort at 7 months.

Depending on availability, of course.

Thank you. I was just wondering if it was 'worth it' or not, or better to have all the points at the same resort.

Alright, now I'm confused. I thought you could only book at 7 months at the resort those points belonged to. So 50 points at SSR would only get you a couple of days at 7 months & the rest of your trip would have to wait until the 11 month mark to book or have it split with the other resort you owned at?
So if I'm reading your responses right, if I owned at 2 different resorts, I could combine the points from both contracts & book at either of the 2 resorts at 7 months. Is that correct?

11 months before check in you can only book at your home resort(s). 7 months before check in you can combine your points and book at any DVC resort "if there is availability" .

Sorry, half asleep here. I misread. I though the poster meant 11 months, not 7 months. I really need to go to bed. But I've always wondered why people buy multiple contracts if they don't have enough at any one to book a whole vacation at 11 months.

ALL of your points can be used to book at the 11 month window....just at the home resort or resorts. You can be sure your vacation is booked with a split stay at 11 months and at the 7 month window (based on availability) change the one reservation to stay the whole time at one resort.

Well BLT will almost 100% be sold out and you will always be able to get points at SSR through resale, so on that alone i would go with blt.

Depending on where you bought your SSR points from could cause a large financial hit on 50 points. If you bought them direct from disney and are selling them, then you can expect a price of 58-73 per point depending on current points on the contract, then subtract 10% for the reseller fees. Then your looking at clearing 52-65 per point.

Yes. Good point. I bought all my points direct from Disney, I think I will keep things the way they are for now.
