looks like $3.25pp or higher is getting through at the minute, again this is just a guide based on very small data samples"

That's making RIV at $3.67pp not look so bad. Especially for a family of 7 like mine.

200 points with current incentives makes RIV $180pp. I did math on 200 pts AKL resale vs. 220 pts RIV direct.

For about $13000 more, you get 13 more years and no booking restrictions. Plus possible AP discounts and you can book a trip right away.

Of course, for $13000 more you could get 300 AKL resale points instead of 200 so...

It’s an ok incentive but those monthly payments are insane

like I've said previously, I think AKL is their target after BLT.

If my 2nd attempt doesn't go through then I won't go for a completely stripped contract. stick to a Dec use year and go for 0/20 225/21 (bank) 225/22 so that when we go in 2023 we can start straight off at a 1BR Savannah room.

Rather than $109 a point I'll probably go to $113 or so and see if I can get seller to pay closing costs. means I'll be paying an extra year of dues though

Im getting pretty desperate as AKL sales seem to be thinning out and I dont really want anywhere else for mt home resort

We are waiting on two AKL at the moment, one is very exposed at $108/point. I have also noticed that there has been a fall in the number of AKL being advertised at the moment. December use year doesn't work for us and there are far more of those around!

I haven’t found use year that important for us as being from the UK we usually book our holidays quite far out. If we don’t think we will travel within 6 months, then we’ll bank the points. Think it’s 4 months before next allotment that you can bank point until the next year... may be wrong on that

Was not expecting to hear back so soon, but looks like we are going to DVC owners!

Congrats!
I also had one submitted to ROFR on 3/4, but I haven't heard anything yet.

Agree there is a lot of Dec use year. It is actually the worse for us too since we want to go normally Thanksgiving, But we are making it work since it had everything else we want, like not being stripped and with the amount of points we wanted.

Just want a little public opinion ... offered $130/pt on a CCV contract on the off chance the seller would say yes, knowing I would go to $135. Seller said no thanks, want $150/pt (full ask) as they still have a loan to pay off. I don’t think I want to pay more than $135, and averages look like $135-140 recently. Thoughts?

I wouldn't pay $150/point for a CCV contract. Depending on the size of the contract, $135-145 is more reasonable.

can’t reach your goal of 2500 if you don’t try right? Some of these resale prices are getting out of hand so I might be back to considering direct for small contracts.

Maybe you should just consider buying a resort

I'm in UK as well, our son(buying one of the contracts) is in Australia, We also plan a long way ahead! We plan to meet up in Florida in September 2022 so want to bank 2021 points to get a 2 week holiday so UY can't be Oct or Dec. Good luck with your second attempt.

2500. 3000 is just addiction

At least I can go to a Resort and think that's the door handle I own

Another one bites the dust.

Sorry to hear. Seems like under $110 is vulnerable.

Welcome to the BLT buy back club! We might need to have a drink at the Top of the World Lounge when it finally opens. I really think they are gobbling up Feb UY in particular.

 

[starfrenzy]

I agree. However the AKL buybacks started after our deal was made and submitted. At the time we sent ours to ROFR, $106 was a safe price! Just bad timing. There must be something better for me!

AKV is getting painful...I was just looking at the true cost per point

Taken contracts
$92-$25610-270-AKV-Feb-0/19, 0/20, 270/21, 270/22 = 9,720 points, cost $25,610 so $2.63pp
$106-$21995-200-AKV-Aug-0/19, 0/20, 0/21, 200/22 = 7,000 points, cost $21,995 so $3.14pp
$109-$18025-160-AKV-Aug-0/19, 0/20, 0/21, 160/22 = 5,600 points, cost $18,025 so $3.22pp
$106-$23384-210-AKV-Dec-0/19, 0/20, 0/21, 210/22 = 7,350 points, cost $23,384so $3.18pp
$106-$25829-220-AKV-Feb-0/19, 0/20, 440/21, 220/22 = 8,140 points, cost $25,829 so $3.17pp

Recent Passed
$105-$23325-200-AKV-Mar-0/20, 200/21, 200/22 = 7,200 points, cost $23,325 so $3.24pp
$110-$24320-200-AKV-Jun-0/19, 0/20, 200/21, 200/22 = 7,200 points, cost $24,320 so $3.38pp
$112.5-$23752-200-AKV-Aug-0/20, 400/21, 200/22= 7,400 points, cost $23,752 so $3.21pp


looks like $3.25pp or higher is getting through at the minute, again this is just a guide based on very small data samples

Sniff, sniff my poor $92 pp contract that Disney stole from me.

Welcome to the BLT buy back club! We might need to have a drink at the Top of the World Lounge when it finally opens. I really think they are gobbling up Feb UY in particular.

I noticed this too...I wonder if there's more to it than there just being a lot more Feb UY contracts than the other UYs.
