If I'm searching for a room at other DVC resorts before the 7 month window opens, is the availability correct even if I cannot book yet? Seem like a lot of availability for other DVC resorts when my home resort is fully booked already for that specific weekend.
Yes, that’s the current availability. It’s amazing how different demand is for different resorts/villas. Of course, the actual number of villas in the various resorts makes a difference too.
The other thing is that we can't see how many rooms are still there. I believe their is a site now, Unlocked Magic, https://unlockedmagic.com/exclusive-tools/, that allows you to see that, but on the DVC site, we can't.
But, if you are seeing something that, it means at least one rooms exists for those dates at that moment in time!
