Yes. Bonnie @ Fidelity recommended Cammy @ Mason for my VGC deal I did last year and for my AKV contract that is in ROFR as we speak. Bonnie has been solid (most people recommend her as one of the better people at Fidelity) and she is nice to speak to and work with. I did have a few issues with my VGC transaction last year and I'm staying on top of this one to keep it from happening again.
I'm curious about where you got this information. Is this amount from all the brokers? Is there a place/website where it's compiled? I have about 15 different brokers bookmarked and was wondering if you also have about the same and actually counted them. Thanks.
Is there a limit on how much you can put on the card?
I think it depends on the escrow company? Mason is, I believe, $2,500 max.
I’ve done 5000 twice.
Mason is $5,000, I've charged $5,000 for my deposit with them multiple times
I thought they were obligated to present all offers... but don't let that discourage you - their list price is obviously a bit crazy
Oh good, mine was listed through Bonnie so I assume that’s who I’ll work with. Crossing my fingers they accept!
The car dealers don’t charge 3 or 4% surcharge to use a card? Every one I’ve ever dealt with does, which would offset any points.
I bought my last car in 2019 and they didn’t
There’s a website that aggregates all the brokers listings, but it’s blocked here on disboards.
After we made our offer online, the agent called within a day or two to review the offer and various details, i.e. which party paying MF, closing costs, etc. Once confirmed, the agent then spoke to the seller. We used Fidelity.
I feel like you and I are going to have very similar lineups once all is said and done LOL. AKV will be the next one I get, VGC likely down the line. The one one we'll differ on is Copper Creek. Any other home resorts you planning on getting?
Some of the really good cash-back cards exclude car dealerships as well. My 2% on anything Penfed , and my WF both exclude cars.
Four home resorts already feels like it's going to be "fun" to manage but I wont lie, I'm thinking about a few more...
BRV - The 2042 end scares me a bit but if the price were to drop to let's say into the 70s I'd have to consider it. Could be deep value to book family trips for the next 18 years at WL and just enjoy it while it lasts.
OKW(E) - The point charts and the rooms here seem like a huge win. I'd love to have enough points to get a few rooms here every 3 years.
VDH - IF (BIG IF) the price/incentives and the point chart are good it would be hard for me to not have any points here given where we live. VGC will be our number 1 spot but also tempted to own at the OG Disney resort hotel at the OG mouse house (don't let @UrsulaWantsYourSoul know).
Aulani - Lower priority but we'll go every few years so we might want to own here.
Some are just dreaming, but if we get to 2500ish points in the next 10 years might get some of these
Yeahhh I don't plan to have that many home resorts hahah. I think my cap is going to be around 1000. I'd like to stay in grand villas here and there but most important to me is getting 2BRs a couple weeks a year. My final planned line up is RIV, AUL, AKL, Poly and VGC that way it covers essentially every location except VB/HHI.
Found it. Time to dig into some data.
It’s a great site. I’m on it way more than I should be.Found it. Time to dig into some data.
