Call me crazy, but didn't these same DVC sources lead you down the path of thinking the Poly tower was to be an entirely new association with resale restrictions in order fall in line with RIV and VDH? Being part of the existing PVB association was unfathomable to you up until contractor permits were filed a month ago under PVB.
And no, I haven't reached out to anyone at Disney or DVC regarding Poly tower, cabins, or future trust properties. Always rely on my own research, understanding of legal language, and Disney's strategic business objectives.
I never discussed with anyone the Poly tower association, other than the normal sources who always said they had no idea and could not speculate,
All my comments, as I alway posted, were my opinions, based on what I felt was the facts and info out there, including some of our posters here who have extensive knowledge…who made similar assumptions.
And, I absolutely switched gears to leaning same after December, once I got them to finally admit it was actually stated…took me several emails to get them to confirm that statement.
But also said that the whole wishy washy behavior lately…some restrictions, some not,,,and the new trust idea that showed up made me lose some confidence in them. .
So, you are correct that I would not be 100% convinced until I saw it confirmed officially in documents that proved it, simply because DVD does what it wants and I put nothing past them, which included changing their minds if it suited them.
I am still not sure we won’t see some surprises in the program in the next few years.
But, to get back to my comment, these people that I have asked have been at the parks, in the DVC lounge, and on the phone. None are secret sources, and I never claimed them to be. I simply am someone who asks a lot of questions because I like to know about how things are moving with the product that I own.
I consistently was told that this trust idea was not new and that they simply decided to sell the cabins this way, but that right now, in practice, it wasn’t a big deal because it will function the same way.
The survey that the sent out to owners even hinted it was something being talked about, and all of sudden, it happens.
So, I go back to my comments that from all that I have read and info I gathered, including the new multi site and CFW POS language, I feel confident that we will see this trust be a move in thr future…and of course, I do believe the job posting of DVC 2.0 meant something.
Could I end up wrong about the trust? Sure. Plenty of us felt that there were lots of strong reasons Poly would be a new association, and quite honestly, am still surprised they made the move they did. It makes no logical sense to me. I
As you said, going the trust route for them was a better move and my guess is this project made a good starting point for a change in practice. And, we won’t know that until we see future projects announced and left out.
