I was eyeing that one. So thanks for saving me some moneyCouldn't pass this up; not our use year for our other contracts (Jun), but it's pretty close so not a big deal. Only $4 more a point than what we paid for our first SSR contract 2.5 years ago!

So excited, our first DVC purchase! I've been lurking here for over a year!
Over in the "Buying Aulani" thread we were wondering who might take this contract on. Is the seller also giving a credit for 2025 dues?Lil Micky---$59.24-$60320-1000-AUL-Feb-0/23, 32/24, 0/25-seller pays MF '24- sent 2/20
This contract has had two owners in less than 3 years of existence and has been a financial disaster for both.
Maybe this time will be different.
Yep, i lost a 25pt by asking about them paying fees, or splitting fees, when I should have just bought it. Lesson learned.I thought about asking for the seller to pay it but it only changes the total cost of the contract $225 lol. At 7K that's a drop in the bucket. But I see your point, on smaller contracts it technically is an increase on price per point...but on these small ones $10 difference in price per point up or down really makes no impact to the overall contract price, especially 25 point contracts.
The most amazing deal I have ever seen for Poly, people paying more per point for resorts expiring in 18 years.
At $10k per year in dues I can see why. lolLil Micky---$59.24-$60320-1000-AUL-Feb-0/23, 32/24, 0/25-seller pays MF '24- sent 2/20

'25 dues are credited at closing, but the $59.42 $/p figure takes that into account.Over in the "Buying Aulani" thread we were wondering who might take this contract on. Is the seller also giving a credit for 2025 dues?
It took that happening to me once, and lesson learned.Yep, i lost a 25pt by asking about them paying fees, or splitting fees, when I should have just bought it. Lesson learned.
@Lil Micky How do you spend 1000 per year??
Multiple trips, multiple units, or just live there for a month. lol
I said this elsewhere but I am not sure that Fidelity's $225 fee really puts their closing costs above others, like the board sponsor. My contract through Fidelity and my contract through the board sponsor had the same closing costs even after the Fidelity fee.Yep, i lost a 25pt by asking about them paying fees, or splitting fees, when I should have just bought it.

We're based on the west coast and our family is half Aussie/half American. Hawaii works as a group vacation spot with friends/family on either side of the Pacific. The inaugural trip using these points will cover rooms for 4 grandparents, 4 in-laws, 6 cousins and our family of 5.@Lil Micky How do you spend 1000 per year??

Oh that is the perfect situation then!!Our family is half Aussie/half American and Hawaii works as a group vacation spot with friends/family on either side of the Pacific. The inaugural trip using these points will cover rooms for 4 grandparents, 4 in-laws, 6 cousins and our family of 5.
Haven't locked in a room configuration but it's pricing out to around ~1400 points for a week with all of us.Oh that is the perfect situation then!!
You should be making amazing family memories for years to come. Is the inaugural trip using more or less of the 1000? (or really close to 1000?)
We are financing a total of $0, which should significantly improve the financial side of owning this albatross.$134,000 financed with Disney then $60,000 financed with Monera..... yikes. I wonder if Disney will ROFR lol. Probalby not!
Oh jeez yes. This isn't the type of contract anyone should be financing, no exceptions. lolWe are financing a total of $0, which should significantly improve the financial side of owning this albatross.
