Questions about DVC contract strategies

[Genie+]

I would say mine was easiest as far as selling me but, I set up a delayed close and a payment plan and paid with 8 different credit cards

Gotta love those CC points and sign-up bonuses!

I’m sure they didn’t mind in the grand scheme of making the sale.

We set it up with 2 cards splitting each of 4 payments and we’re told we could switch payment methods by calling in shortly before each billing date.

ahh yes, good point. Didnt even dawn on me that a new member might not realize this.

Guilty. To me, it sounded like an incentive to sign up was to get a few days worth of points. I wasn’t picking up on what the actual incentive was.

As far as UY goes… this is one of the advantages of buying resale first.

The summer we bought VGF it started selling out. By the end of that incentive round guides were pushing back on certain UY for people who didn’t already own points with that UY.

I remember our Sept UY was one that changed during that sales cycle. By the end they were only automatically honoring it for people trying to match an existing Sept UY and telling others it was unavailable.

UY is a whole different thing that seems over complicated. I mean UY seems to specifically refer to the month you get your points. Why didn’t they call it Use Month?

When looking at resale contracts, it’s a bit challenging to look at 24-25-26 UY points and decide what the best value is. Some of the Poly ones I look at have nothing for 24-25, and have a late UY. No points at all until fall of 26 seems like a tough sell.
