This is why I think buying at an O14 at a highly desirable resort is the best resale bang per buck—PVB, VGF, VGC. I’d say probably AKV, BLT, and AUL fall in this category as well, though I’d assume Disney is slightly less committed to Hawaii than it is to DLR and WDW.
I suspect most of us afflicted with DVC addonitis would prefer weekly—but I’ll be grateful for any interval that works for you.

The ROFR had a poly contract submitted at (I think) $130/pt so looking forward to seeing it show up in your chart.

I still can't believe this is true. I mean I know it is but it's crazy to think how people can drop so much money on something and not be educated about it. A fool and his money I guess...
I had no idea until a few people I worked with told me about it.
Yeah no I can see how people wouldn't know about the resale market but my comment was in general that people drop a lot of money on things they have done zero research into. On a whim I guess you can say. That's just not me so I have a hard time understanding that mentality. I come from an overanalyzing/need to make sure I'm getting the best bang for buck/need to know I'm not making a mistake mind set. Two very different ways of approaching spending money.
Yes, I love her, but believe her prices (wherever she is now - honestly, I'm not sure the name) were high compared to others - just a reminder to compare prices if you're "not" in a rush.
I think for some Direct buyers they simply "don't know, what they don't know." It is not unreasonable to assume the only place to buy a Disney Timeshare would be Disney if you had no prior Timeshare experience. For example, if you Google under a lot of Disney Vacation Club-type terms you mostly get that all timeshares are bad, or comparisons between paying cash at Disney vs DVC, you might not even catch the sites referring to resales - or find them talking about resale scams...
The time value of money means that difference comes no where within any reasonable justification to pay that premium for direct. 2066 is 43 years down the road. Epcot isn't even 43 years old. When you consider the changes to DVC since 1991, 32 years, it's incomprehensible to logically use lack of Original 14 resorts as a reason to pay double. Not knowing better is probably more understandable.
That they are!
I am not an on the whim person either. Ultimately, I would have found out about resale contracts before I ever committed money.
For you absolutelyI support this thread only if you agree to remove my home resorts from your list if I ever decided to sell them.
When shopping listings, I contacted several lising agents to review closing costs before I made an offer. I was quoted less using Cammy's new Title Co than any other for comparable listings. And the final cost ended up a bit lower than that.
That is what I was told by 2 resale companies. It isn't terribly different and I think her charge ended up being less than one thought it would be.
I would want this even more as a seller, in a market where prices are generally trending down and DVD is randomly offering flash sales. I have wondered if VGF buyers have backed out of pending contracts when DVC announced the summer promotions.
(but early on - during the 10-day period before sending a deposit)
