Swap or exchange question with non disney properties

[elf]

I don't own DVC yet, but we are looking into buying BWV or BCV. Next year we are thinking of going to Paris. Is there a list of places available to exchange with? I'm also curious about other European destinations, how easy is it to exchange?
Thanks

here is the list of sites using II

the timeshare owner of the place that you want to exchange too - must deposit his week with II before any exchanges can take place.

Nothing really for Paris, a couple not that far away though. I think Marriott is about 45 miles right by Disney Paris. As for how tough, it depends on what you want and when you want it. If you want the top resorts during peak times, forget it. And realize what you think is peak may not really be. Do not buy DVC to trade, it's a poor choice for this purpose though there are some very limited exceptions.

Thanks for the listing. I see what you mean that the exchanges in Europe are pretty limited. We've been going to WDW multiple times a year and now my kids want to start "adventuring" like I used to before kids. But WDW keeps calling us back. So we all agreed on Paris because I not only love it, lots to do for kids, but they also have a Disneyland so we could get our fix in.
