First contracts! We saw the 25 go up for sale and thought we'd grab that and then just get another 25 direct to get us to the 50 total that we wanted. Then two weeks later the 50 point contract in the same use year popped up at 149 a point, figured we could get another 50 for slightly more than the planned 25 direct, pulled the trigger!
I imagine if their goal is to hover under 200 points in total these fewer point contracts would work out great for them and maintain most if not appreciate in value but if going for 3-400+ points it would almost be a pain to have to list that many.Might be nice to have them separate if you sell down the line, but honestly, if you are looking for higher points, the higher number of points contracts are sometimes cheaper per point, and you are not paying the multiple escrow fees - unless you got the seller to pay closing fees, of course. Great resort and use year![]()
We're actually building funds for refurbs all the time, even when there isn't one going on... they break it out in the annual statement. But if they tried to collect for a refurb in the actual time frame it's done, the dues jump would be insane... so they keep estimates of all they expect to spend on all the various frequencies - I believe the break out roof estimates ,refurbs, etc. and show us all the portion of our dues going into the capital fund, along with the total balance of the fund and what the year's dues allocated to those type of future expenditures will add to that fund... even a resort like SSR that just had one is already collecting each year to build up again for the next one...We have a young one, don't need curtains. Prefer the glass. It's much gooder.
Also, do we realize that every time there is a refurb on a resort, that translates to our annual dues rising? Someone bears the cost.
Wow! Nice deal! These prices are greatnjcoach24---$137.5-$6500-40-VGF-Mar-0/22, 40/23, 40/24, 40/25- sent 2/3
Fingers crossed! So excited to hopefully add on to the POLY contract I snagged at the start of the pandemic.
We were really only looking for about 50 points total, enough to take a trip every other year or so. Ended up with 75 so it works.Might be nice to have them separate if you sell down the line, but honestly, if you are looking for higher points, the higher number of points contracts are sometimes cheaper per point, and you are not paying the multiple escrow fees - unless you got the seller to pay closing fees, of course.

Starting to feel like I overpaid for my AKV contractAKAddict---$110-$24617-200-AKV-Dec-400/22, 200/23, 200/24- sent 1/23

What did you pay? Was it sent?Starting to feel like I overpaid for my AKV contract![]()
You can’t time a market. IF you bought it to use and not as an investment (and you should never buy a timeshare as an investment), then you did not overpay.Starting to feel like I overpaid for my AKV contract![]()

114 per point, it’s a smaller contract (125) though than that one. If I were going for 200 I prob would’ve aimed for 110What did you pay? Was it sent?

At the start of the pandemic which is when I got into DVC I was between AKV and PVB…AK was selling in 100-110 range…we are seeing prices dip again and people are going to start scooping up the contracts real quick again. I think you got in good. Even if you overpaid it’s not a massive amount, like maybe $500. That doesn’t really change the overall number too much.114 per point, it’s a smaller contract (125) though than that one. If I were going for 200 I prob would’ve aimed for 110
I hope so too. I’m hoping since they are selling inventory they don’t want extra.Wow… That’s incredible!!! Hope it passses ROFR!
I know that 145 passed for VGF this week.Wow… That’s incredible!!! Hope it passses ROFR!
