direct purchase

We currently own 150 points at VGF with Feb UY. We are already hooked and are considering buying resale points somewhere else (maybe like 50 for now). My question is, as long as we purchase a resale contract at a different resort (one of the original 14) with the same UY (Feb) do both my resale...

Hi Another buyer here who is interested in buying direct. We live in Bermuda .. tried calling Disney to make the purchase but they wouldn’t talk and give any info .. saying they are not registered in Bermuda We wanted to make use of the current promotion - anyone has any clue how to go ahead...

Excited to be out of lurk mode after having bought 150 direct at VGF2 last week! Husband and I still need to sit down with virtual notary to finalize everything and are just wondering what that process entails and how long it normally takes (we both work from home so want to block out enough...

My favorite DVC resorts are CCV, AKL, VGF, and BCV. When I purchased CCV it was a good choice as AKL options are usually open at 7 months. BCV was not attractive as a buyer because of the shorter length of the contract. The VGF price points were not where I wanted to be with my first direct...

Hi folks! My family and I have been back and forth on a DVC purchase (our first one!) for a bit and finally decided to take the jump. After discussing, we decided to get the first 150 points direct to get blue card status, with the understanding that any we purchased later would likely be resale...

Hello, I'm looking to buy a 150 point contract direct. I'm torn between OKW and SSR. We would rarely stay in studios. Prefer one and two bedroom villas. We have a 5 year old and 2 year old. I'm leaning towards OKW because of the availability charts. With the 11 month window I feel like I...

In January, we purchased a guaranteed week direct from Disney. We got a Copper Creek 2 bedroom for week 47(thanksgiving week). Our guide told us that guaranteed weeks aren't always available the first year, but that my purchase agreement and deed would state the first year that the guaranteed...

Disney Vacation Club sold-out resort prices are on the rise, with Grand Californian going to $295 per point! https://dvcfan.com/2021/01/02/rumor-disney-vacation-club-sold-out-resort-prices-on-the-rise/

Was told today that the minimum for blue card is raising to 125 points on 10/1. I’m sorry but WHAT??!! What are they thinking?? Most direct benefits are absolutely useless right now. You can not even buy an annual pass if you’re a new member. I kindly told my rep “No Thank You” and went back to...

Would any of you be tempted to purchase Riviera direct? $25 off per point for 200 pts or more. It amounts to not much more than the SSR contract I was looking at direct. I’ve been pretty certain I would stay away from RIV but the rooms look beautiful in the videos I’ve seen. I know I would...

I have been trying to sort through all of the info on how the direct and resale work and specifically how they work together. I am interested in buying DVC, but would like to purchase 100 direct for the perks but save on the rest of the points by purchasing Resale. I know there is plenty of...

Hello, I am thinking about buying DVC, and have looked at both resale and direct (and a combo of both). I thought about doing direct to maintain the benefits and potential for booking at riviera/future resorts. However, it seems that only members with certain resorts as their home resort will...

Hi, I was looking for 200 direct points for one of the old resorts. I am purchasing cash no finance. If Disney have the 200 points I was wondering if I should ask if these could broken down into x2 100pt contracts, but looking for advice if this is advisable or not, or even if they can break...
