My BCV passed last week at $125 a point. Great find! Did you find this at Fidelity?

Nope, another well known broker (not board sponsor). List price was nowhere close to that. Right place, right time I suppose.

Won’t happen but it would help a ton.

You mean make the bungalows cheaper and make the studios even more expensive? Having the Poly studios cost even more would be awful.

Six months after our first try, and with the ROFR monster hopefully in hibernation, here's our second shot at joining DVC:

I'd say it's a near certainty you will pass given what's been passing lately.

I just passed at $100/pt for 100 pts so I think there's a really good chance.

No, that is not what I meant. I was more thinking of pulling it all into one association with the new development. I know this is not likely as there are many legal hurdles to jump.

Honestly, I gave up on finding a small point contract in my UY for BWV and bought a baby contact direct about a year ago. While the current market seems to be in the 110-130pp range even on small contracts, paying a bit more for exactly what you want is worth it. I don't regret the direct points i bought at 205 because i got them when i needed them with no headaches... But in the year since, I've seen low point contacts in my UY dip into the 110s to 120s. While there are amazing deals to be had right now, 140pp at the resort you want in the UY you want isn't the best deal you'll find but it is unquestionably a very reasonable deal.

Thank you so much for this answer!

Way back when Poly was new, I seem to remember that someone calculated they could drop the bungalows by an average of something like 18 points a night and raise the studios by only 1 point per night and still have the points charts balance. So not a big increase.

However, given the furor over the initially-published 2020 points charts, when they tried to increase points for studios and 1BR and decrease for 2BR and finally had to rescind that points chart, they might be a bit shy to try such a reallocation at Poly. Yes, they got away with it at SSR (increasing points for treehouses, decreasing for 2BR), but that was before they were under as much scrutiny by members on social media as they were in 2020 and are now.

No, that is not what I meant. I was more thinking of pulling it all into one association with the new development. I know this is not likely as there are many legal hurdles to jump.

I agree - even if Poly2 is wrapped into Poly1, I don't think they'd legally be able to reallocate points from bungalows to the new villas.

Happy Valentine's Day, and in a few hours, I am off to Anaheim for 5 days at DL

Thank you so much for this answer!

That's exactly how I feel as well. The contract we put an offer on was up for like two days. It was worth paying the extra $600 or whatever it was to make sure I got the # of points, the resort, and the UY i wanted!

100%. That’s what we did with ours too.

This cannot be true a broker told me that loaded BLT contracts go for much more than that.

And look at how quickly it passed. I was surprised it happened already, 19 days from submitted to passed. I only put in the initial offer 19 days ago.

 

[AnnaKristoff2013]

Thought i was done, but guess I’m going to have to keep an eye out for BLT contracts. BLT has the lowest maintenance fees, so they’ll make excellent SAPs.
