Disney Vacation Club by resale - the way to go! Apr 03 '00 My family and I have been going to Disney World for the last 15 years. My parents have been coming with us for the last 3 years. Its great to go as a big group. In order to accommodate the 7 of us, we have always gotten 2 rooms at the hotels we have stayed at. My parents decided to do it right and decided to buy into the Disney Vacation Club. I did some of the research for them, and they did some as well. They called and talked with a Disney representative. They were told how Old Key West was sold out. If they wanted to buy in, they would have to buy at the Boardwalk. Cost would be about $67 a point. After my research, I told them that it wasn't a good idea to buy at Boardwalk. The room point rate for a week was a few points higher, but worse, the annual maintenance fee was about $1 per point higher at Boardwalk than at OKW. My suggestion was to buy through the resale market and buy at OKW. I did further research and found out there are basically two real estate agencies handling the DVC resales. The Timeshare Store and ATimeShare are the two agencies available. They are both EXTREMELY helpful and informative. They could sell me whatever they had available in their inventory. They obviously can only sell what they are given to be representatives of. They ended up buying through ATimeShare. Not because of what the dealer did, but more because of what the agent had available. ATimeShare had the number of points my parents were interested in at the price they were willing to pay. If the Timeshare Store had what my folks had wanted, they would have been just as satisfied buying through them too. I won't tell you what they paid, but I will say it was QUITE SIGNIFICANTLY LESS than $67/point! The point of this discussion is if you are interested in buying into the DVC, seriously consider the resale market. Once you own the points, Disney treats you just as if you were the original owners, but you saved BIG $$$ doing it!
