What is the longest time allowed?

Are you allowed to buy unlimited points? Could you potentially spend all year at Disney? Whats the most time that you know of someone staying at Disney?

Just wondering....10 more years till retirement and my brains working overtime..

I think an individual is limited to 5000 points. There are some restrictions on how long you can stay, but I'm not clear on what they are.

Like Tara, I had heard that an owner could not have more than 5,000 points. I had also heard that an owner could not have more than 2,000 points at any single resort. However, when we were at WDW in March, one of the Guides mentioned that they increased the resort limit from 2,000 to 3,000 or 4,000 points. Frankly, I'm not too concerned about any cap limits on the number of points I can own. Its like special tax laws that apply to billionaires: I'll worry about it when I get to that level.

BTW: A few months ago someone started a thread in which he said he was planning on staying nine months at WDW. I don't know what became of his plans.

There's a restriction that you cannot make your DVC resort your home address. And because of this domicile restriction, the DVC limits how long you can stay at a resort. Also one of the restrictions is that you cannot receive mail on a regular basis.

I think, I'd contact my guide for this information. I remember there was a military guy that was planning on retiring next year and he had checked with his guide about staying at WDW for 9 months. It would not be a continuous stay as he and his DW would come and go on cruises. His guide mentioned these restrictions and the military officer posted a thread asking about whether it would work if they stayed in a studio from time to time and what they would need for such a long stay.

Just bought in April and we signed some documents that where stating a maximum of 4000 pts per resorts and a maximum of 8000 pts per members.

They told me that they do have members reaching those maximum.

7760 pts to addon!
