ROFR Thread July to Sept 2022 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

What resort ? That also changes the equation. Plus they can change the point chart so 102 becomes 98 or 109 depending on the rebalance.

 

[TraJon]

Congratulations! Are there any images of what the refurb is going to look like?

There is a picture floating around, that was awhile back of a test room. It was beautiful but who knows now if that is the room? Is it allowed to mention an instagram name?

I forgot about the point charts. The extensions at OKW really puts them into a strange spot as it's very likely they can't to a hybrid chart as I don't see even the best legal minds figuring out that magic. That is a point that would push them to want to let them go away for sure....



See that's where I think the logic actually goes the other way. It might be Disney's love of money and profit that makes them keep the value in the contracts. As I was looking into DVC as a prospective buyer the value in the brand was in the plus column. I don't plan on selling, but it's nice to know it's an option if I need to break that glass.

What happens to the brand if I can look for used BRV contracts for 60 bucks a point in 2035? Don't you think that will impact their ability to sell points direct at Reflections 2, the Cabins at Camp Wilderness, or the the Villas at All Star Resort at 350 a point when other resorts are worth way less at WDW?

Note - these are just crazy thoughts/questions by a hungry person who really wants to go get some spicy Thai food.... please don't take them too seriously

I hope I am here on this earth to see what happens in 2042.

I will be borrowing points at the end and closing out with a stripped contract.

I think everyone's going to have that idea in 2040/2041 and availability will be super sparse, Dec UY folks especially.

We will have a year long end of the world party

OK, quick question. I am looking at 150 point contract but I will very likely need 152 points. Can I buy 2 points to the resort direct so that I can get around booking the whole trip at the 11 month window? I have a mix of direct and resale points already but all at one resort…not a split of direct and resale at one resort.

Can you just call to make the reservation and buy one-time use points?

Can you just call to make the reservation and buy one-time use points?

OTU points can be purchased only during the process of making a reservation at 7 months or less. So not useful when reserving at 11 months.

 

[DVCBeachBum]

Thats what I thought. I am going to end up passing on the contract. Its a 2042 and I can’t make the CPP work in my favor at what the seller is negotiating at.

Thank you all for helping me to figure out the extra point situation though. Its very useful for thinking contracts through

If I book a room at BRV for late May 2023 do you think there is a high chance the remodel will be done by then? I have to wait for the 7 month booking window to add on a room at either CCV or BRV for our split stay for some additional family who decided to join our trip. I'd say that I'd rather book BRV if there is a high chance the remodel will be done by then

If you look up “boulder ridge renovation permit” there are permit dates. They filed in June and last day of the permit is in April. I think to the best of our ability I would book it!

Subsidized dues contract

 

[Sandisw]

While I hope your future predictions come true... my instincts say "fat chance".

DVC didn't bat an eye with doing away with a number of controversial items... To name a few: halting APs, implementing resale restrictions, restricting access to TOTWL, canning Magical Express... killing fast pass... Did I mention free magic bands?

They will let the 2042's expire unless some new CEO comes in before then and doesn't believe in capitalism.

Some of those things had nothing to do with DVC in Terms of ending.

Nothing to prevent them from restricting banking and borrowing the last few years as well to prevent a huge imbalance.

 

[DisneyKim41]

I can personally vouch for this.

I intended to only ever get 1,000 points. I now have 3,700.

I got another 200 RIV a few weeks ago....!

Holy moly!

Yes! Now let’s get that refurb going

I second that. I have a reservation end of Nov. I'm worried will still be in an outdated room.

 

[BeachClub2014]

I'd be willing to bet that will happen. I would hate to have a December use year on a 2042 contract, especially if DVC restricts borrowing. Our BCV contract has an August use year, which will be bad enough!

 

[Bearval]

I bet there will be no banking of points allowed in the last year if not last 2 years.

 

[RKS03]

I wonder if they’d allow someone to borrow points in the prior to final year. If so it’s possible someone would have used all their points but still owe dues the following year. Disney would have no collateral if dues were not paid in the last contract year.

 

[theMoreDisneytheBetter]

Seems like it would be incredibly unfair to give Dec UY only 1 month to use their points. If anything dues should be prorated in the last year to reflect actual time available to use them, though I would guess most people would just want to be able to go to their home resort one last time.
