Keep in mind when making a decision to buy into dvc that dvc is one of the only timeshares that maintains its value as time progresses. I have been looking into purchasing for about 4 years now and the resale values of all the resorts have all increased (not that it’s surprising with inflation over pricing of things over time). That’s what finally sold me on making an offer, I’m not through yet (waiting on ROFR) but if you’re planning on going to Disney every year and like staying at the higher end resorts it’s definitely something to consider. No the system isn’t perfect availability wise (which is why I took so long to submit an initial offer) but depending on your situation and flexibility you can make it work. The dues aren’t cheap for sure but how I look at it is that the dues on a contract of 100 points a year are cheaper than staying at a moderate resort for 3/4 nights. Where with 100 points depending on the resort you can get a week out of it at some resorts or even more (take old key west studios or boardwalk standard studios at 10 points a night during some times). But again, the reason I finally pulled the trigger was Bc I know that if I decided I didn’t care for it in day 5 years, I could always sell it. I feel like that’s not going to be the case and I’ll probably end up loving it but who knows! I just wanted to offer my insight as someone who recently pulled the trigger (as I mentioned I’m not out of the woods as far as being in yet waiting on Disney to approve or deny my contract which I’m hoping for the go from them ). Good luck w your decision!

I am waiting on my BLT offer to pass through and excited to go. We only have history to go by which tells us it will be worth something resale. I would not have offered if value was going to make it hard to sell but I have hopes DVC can keep going forward. I am scared of benefits going away or the ability to use other resorts which is part of the reason I stuck with BLT. It seemed decent enough for long term value and had a long window to use it compared to beach club which I may actually prefer in the long run. Best wishes to you and hope you get to be member here soon!

Best of luck to you too that’s awesome! BLT is def a great home resort w a late expiration! I actually bought into and am waiting on ROFR for BWV, I originally wasn’t going to Bc of the expiration but really love the boardwalk view studios and figure if in a bit the 2042 expiration bothers me I’ll sell it and buy a home resort w a later expiration! I agree though I could see Disney added new restrictions on resale again sometime after all they’ve lost this past year so I think nows a good time to buy in so that we’re grandfathered in for that stuff ! Best of luck !!!

I love the boardwalk area, and the easy access to Epcot and Hollywood studios is great. You’ll be really happy with your purchase there

Thanks for your answer to my question. Was this the title company or fidelity or sent the email/call?

My broker actually . The title company First American was really fast the first time , less the second , but the sellers took a long time to sign the closing documents .

This is through Fidelity...I didn't have a great experience with them several years ago so I'm crossing my fingers things go smoother and will stay on top of them.
