Given you are open to resale and focused on value, I would look at the "most economical resort" report from www.dvcresalemarket.com Their most recent report actually had Copper Creek listed first, followed by Bay Lake Tower. GF and SSR are also listed in the top 5. (So is Riviera, but that...

I'm trying to decide how much of a premium (if any) I'm willing to pay for Poly vs what RIV is currently selling for with incentives. Not sure we have beaten this topic to death enough - how hard do you think 7 month availability will be at Poly once the tower is open? (After the initial wave of...

This is an interesting idea. Not sure I can convince my husband due to the higher maintenance fees, but obviously renting them for now is an easy way to cover for that. However, when you say Riv is easy “until it sells out” - that is a concern for me. Not sure I would want to buy RIV resale...

Yep. I have Crohn's disease, fairly significant (prior surgeries, etc). My big fear with the "return to queue" pass is that we'll need to find an attractions CM to have it be issued, wait in a line, etc. When you gotta go...you gotta go. Waiting to speak to a CM in the moment would potentially...

I have to admit, based on all the excitement about Poly and the negativity around resale restrictions, I'm surprised Riviera is doing so well in the poll. One other plus is that we'd likely want Riviera standard view (I like the idea of seeing fireworks) and I'm scared to think about the Poly...

Are you referring to what happens with those who decided not to extend and didn’t sign the quit claims? (If I have the terminology correct.)

Why? Curious the argument (besides current cheap cost per point). I haven’t stayed there and only visited briefly.

I actually went more more-kid. 🤣 At least once a year, sometimes more often, so that isn't a concern overall, but it does affect how many points we may buy - we will be a 1 bedroom family with him or when I travel with my mom, but for my solo trips or trips with my husband, a studio works just...

I am in a similar boat. Every time I think I have made a decision on which resort, I think of another reason to switch to something different. Good pros and cons for all of the current resorts with incentives.

Very true...you make such a good argument! The few times we've paid cash and stayed on property, it has been amazing.

Indeed, that is really what it comes down to. And how much more I'm willing to pay for vibes, given the likely higher cost per point, higher point chart, etc. And it's not like I'll be shut out of Poly forever... this is hard, especially without the full picture of Poly tower. Maybe I need to...

Where would you buy? We have 100 BLT resale points and are in the market for 150-175 direct points. I'm trying to decide whether to go for the current Riv incentives or hold out for Poly. We briefly entertained a VDH contract, but had a hard time justifying buying there - we live approx. 10...

Just to be clear, you expect OKW dues will continue to rise substantially?

Thanks for letting me know. Our use year is Feb with BLT, so that actually works, even if we didn't go for MB.

We want to buy ~150 points direct (already own 100 resale points at BLT) and are considering these incentives vs waiting for Poly. Before MB, at 150 points: -Riviera - $29,700, expires 2070 -Old Key West - $24,750, expires 2057 It is a $4950 difference. Seems like we'd go Riv if we bought this...

There is a new member offer! https://dvcexplorer.com/fin/g/OldKeyWest_Prospect_DeveloperCredit.pdf

Thank you, that makes sense. Now to crunch some numbers and decide if the savings on OKW is worth going for, or if I am going to hold out for Poly and pay a fortune. I wonder if I can convince my husband I need a last minute WDW visit this weekend, for “research” purposes.

These offers are confirmed valid through June 24, correct? Not likely to be pulled and replaced prior to that? My guide (who still thinks I am a new member - I recently bought resale) emailed me and indicated they are “limited” offers. Naturally he wouldn’t want me to wait until June to buy...

The current offers are good through today, so I don’t expect any updated announcement before tomorrow.

I just assumed everyone would be able to use all the pools, like they do at Disneyland. I guess they could do the BLT approach instead?
