Our first contract on our first try. I didn’t try for the lowest price I could find. Might not be the cheapest but, we made it through.
Good luck on your contracts that you're waiting on. Question regarding your GFV2 purchase, do you receive 2021 points as well as 2022 points?I did the same darn thing. Still waiting for HH, AKV, and just bought 125 GFV2. Getting married in two months. Figured I'd better buy before I get caught. If the AKV and HH make it through, I'll have 8 contracts. I broke the GVF2 into two contracts- a 50 and 75. By removing title insurance, the cost for breaking in two is almost nothing. 655 pts into retirement and 3 weddings in the next 2-3 years. All get a Disney week except me. I'm taking 14 days with my new hubby. I am entering the marriage with a very good dowry.
NO. I was told no pts for 2021 UY as this resort "doesn't exist" until opening, so it is not going to get 2021 points.Good luck on your contracts that you're waiting on. Question regarding your GFV2 purchase, do you receive 2021 points as well as 2022 points?
My new husband will freak out when he finds out that 500 of my salary every month goes to DVC dues. I wanted to ensure that I get to go at least 2 times a year and still have extra to give to my kids on their weddings and anniversaries If I find out in the future that this becomes a strain, I'll sell off a contract or two. Every contract I have is either 125, 100, 75, 70, 50, or 40. I didn't realize until after I bought two OKW 70 (2042) and then bought an AKV(100) that my next purchase was killing me in all of those closing costs. What's done is done. Justification: my AKV 100 was at $100 a point, and my OKW was $105 and $107. HH is $70 (has not passed yet)Despite the fact we passed ROFR on three more contracts this week we still don't have enough DVC points. We are around 600.
We have a verbal agreement for a non-DVC resale contract that will enable us to stay another 2-3 weeks in a 1 or 2 BR villa in the WDW area...and we may (gulp) buy another...I feel we've crossed to the dark side!![]()
I look at it as life is short and darn it, I'm going to get as much magic as possible out of it and no regrets!!

This is like a disease, an addiction. I think I'm going to have to not look at these boards anymore. Damn subliminal greed going through my blood.

Love this attitude. Oh, I converted the future hubby to Disney quite some time ago, He thinks I'm a magician that we were able to stay at deluxe resorts this past year: AKV, BC, GFV, BLT, OKW, RIV... I explained that I got a great deal on AKV (which I did) and OKW direct for anywhere we want to stay. He realizes I have DVC, but I have never told how many points nor how much the dues are. I actually have a checking account where I auto deposit 500 every month into it just for DVC dues, and a small loan on the reset of my BLT. I never see that money as income, just payment on what makes my sanity survive since I am a 6th grade teacher with 33 years and not yet retiring. I NEED DVC. I don't even care if I go to the parks. NO- I NEED DVC. I need the pool, the scenery, the leisure, the forced down time.I look at it as life is short and darn it, I'm going to get as much magic as possible out of it and no regrets!!

Struggle is real!That’s how I felt when I realized I crossed 1000! I’m selling of one now to have fewer Use Years but will still have over 800!
Yes, if you buy an UY that’s April or later right now.What if you buy direct but not VGF2, do you get 2021 points still? When we bought direct we got previous points on our SSR purchase but that was years ago
Good luck! We just sent one last week as well for AKLHere we go for round 2.

Yes it was a typo. I confirmed.That must’ve been a typo. Maybe they were confusing BRV that expires in 2042 and CCV that expires in 2068?
Wow !! That's fantastic. It took much longer for me. I think it was around 26 days.Points loaded onto DVC membership dashboard today!!!
Time from filing of deed to points showing up in account: 14 days.
