    Poll: Your Riviera Resale price

    Sure. FL Statute 721.552(1)(b) states, "Any person who is authorized by the timeshare instrument to make additions to the multisite timeshare plan pursuant to this subsection shall act as a fiduciary in such capacity in the best interests of the purchasers of the plan as a whole and shall adhere...

    Poll: Your Riviera Resale price

    In addition, BVTC, when adding new resorts, has to act as a fiduciary and also consider balance of demand at existing resorts. There's also the point that L14 agreements state that if there are new resorts, new members will have the "same terms and conditions," but Riviera's Resort Agreement...

    Rumor: Disney Vacation Club Raising Sold-Out Resort Prices

    Ugh, Disney really does not want me adding on direct. :sad2: Any idea when the increases will take effect? Is it related to the Riviera incentives running out at the end of the month?

    Factoring in School and Kids for your DVC decisions

    Oh no! I guess “not too crowded” is all relative, ugh.

    Factoring in School and Kids for your DVC decisions

    Fair point! Personally I was that kid who worried more about my grades than my parents did! I remember going to France on an exchange program for a week in high school, and when we came back I was so lost in Chemistry it took me months to make up the work and the C I got that semester...

    Factoring in School and Kids for your DVC decisions

    IMO taking our kids out for 1 week becomes too problematic especially as they get older - like PP said, it's a lot of makeup work, and stressful on kids to plan extra time before/after school to make up tests, labs, etc. At most I would do a couple days for a long weekend, and tell their...

    Would you rather...

    Interesting question! I voted Wait because I feel like 50 points wouldn’t give us enough to do much, and I would rather just rent points in that case. But PP all make really good points about starting small now!

    Thanks for all this! I tried to figure out a similar comparison when we were buying but this makes it really easy to see. Any chance of doing this for 2 bedrooms? :scratchinpirate:

    Riviera Sales by the numbers (vs CCV) for 2019 - (December added 1/16/2020)

    Riviera’s Membership Agreement does have a Future Restrictions, Limitations, or Changes clause (section 4.10). Attached is a screenshot from Riviera’s Declaration of Condominium (pp. 98-99), available on the OCC Public Records search. So while I agree I don't think they can make this change for...

    Thanks for calculating all this. Really makes it easy for a quick comparison!

    Riviera vs. 2042

    IMO we will see the 2042 resorts drop to follow more closely projected savings vs cash stays (so, cash stays for the years remaining minus MFs minus some extra savings). RIV resale, who knows? It depends a lot on what DVC does with the restrictions - do they ever roll them back? Do they double...

    Second class members (resale)

    I actually agree that the Membership Extras are bonuses and no reason they should be extended to resale owners (other than maybe goodwill and promoting another Disney division, but nothing to complain about). The new Riviera booking restriction actually does affect the ownership rights you are...

    Riverea vs. L14 and 7 month booking

    I think we will find out in about 10 years! I can’t imagine it being as high as prices today, but I could see a group of buyers saying, hey I’ll try BCV/BWV for a few years, get my feet wet with DVC and see how it works. Can I ask what you mean about a level playing field? I’m just not sure...

    DVC Resale Contract Advice Needed

    This is what I was thinking too. OP, if you are this worried about backing out of your purchase agreement if needed, or what happens with a rental contract, and if these terms and conditions are biased or not, I recommend reconsidering DVC altogether. The DVC Agreement is much more favorable to...

    Thinking about DVC - need some advice!

    If you want to make a spreadsheet - Mousesavers.com has one I found helpful. You can download it and change it according to your vacation habits/plans. https://www.mousesavers.com/other-disney-vacations/disney-vacation-club/

    Thinking about DVC - need some advice!

    Welcome! You’ll get so much great info on the details of DVC from other posters and just reading around these boards, so I’ll focus my response on your last question about how we bought and would we do it again. We bought resale this spring, after this latest round of restrictions. Through our...

    Time frame after signing contract?

    Hi, if you check the Closing Time thread you can get an estimate of how long everything is taking. https://www.disboards.com/threads/closing-time.3392820/post-61105973 (I linked to the most recent post because I find it most helpful to look through the most recent timeframes first then go...
