I have tried doing a search here, but did not find anything. Just am wondering why the resale listings (price per point) for HH and VB? I think I understand why SS is lower, but not the other two. If anyone knows, I would love to know the answer to that. Thanks in advance.:goodvibes
 
Well, in case you haven't heard, the economy is still in recovery mode. It will be several years before that happens. When so many people are pinching pennies, the price comes down....supply and demand.
 

Part of the problem is that there isn't much reason to make those resorts your home resort. For Hilton Head, there are several branded properties (mostly Marriotts) that are arguably of higher quality, with better locations, available at better prices. Vero has a bit more of an advantage---it has a very nice location and is a much better-than-average resort for FL coastal. But the gulf coast seems to be a little more in-demand than the atlantic, and Hilton and Marriott both have wonderful coastal resorts (again, arguably nicer) for less money on both sides of the state.

You could try using them as a cheaper way to get 7-month WDW bookings, but the SSR and OKW deeds aren't that much more, have much lower dues, and give you an 11-month resort on property.
 
HH and VB resales have always been lower than the others. I think the only reason to buy there is if you will actually be staying there. There just isn't as much demand for new members as the WDW resorts.
 
Thanks much, I was thinking maint. fees, but not about zoning etc. It does make more sense to look at SSR or OKW. I appreciated your feedback!:goodvibes
