Where to add on?

[chrissyk]

We have 200 points at BWV (bought resale), and we are planning to buy 100 more points via resale at some point in the future. The actual purchase is probably a ways off for us, but we are already thinking of where we want to buy our add on. We want a 2nd "home" resort for the 11-month window, so we won't be adding on at BWV. We don't really like the BCV (stayed there twice...disappointed twice). We are trying OKW in Oct. for the 1st time, and we haven't stayed at VWL yet (although we stayed at WL once like 6 or 7 years ago and loved it). My DH is still mulling over getting a contract at VB or HH, but I am not so sure that this is the way to go. How did you all decide where to add on? What factors did you consider as the most important in making the decision? Would it be feasible to buy two 50-point resales (say at OKW and VWL) to get the 11-month window at both resorts, or are these small add-on resales hard to come by?

As most will say, "buy where you want to stay", that was a no brainer for us, HHI is 5 hrs away, and we wanted a beach location, as we own at BWV, so 1 year at the beach, the next year at WDW! It just worked out for us, so that is the best for us.
I would say 50 pt contracts a little hard to come by, and you won't get much for 50 pts unless bank and borrow a lot!
Stay and buy where you will go for the next 39 yrs, for us it was the beach!
good luck
