Hopefully purchasing direct DVC contract in coming months. I keep struggling with which resort. I have my 3 favorite resorts, but keep going back to Riviera. Here's why:
1) It's brand spanking new and will be enjoyable to stay in.
2) Gondola system - duh!
3) Will be easy to rent out points and likely the price to rent out will be higher
Here's why I keep backing away:
1) Annual Dues are high (my hope is that they won't increase as much as the other resorts - maybe their plan was to start high, with smaller increases)
2) Points needed for each stay are high. I am a planner, and will be online at 8am at the 11 month mark with each of our vacations, so I'm hoping to get those studios. Is that realistic?
(resale restrictions don't scare me too much because I'm not buying into DVC to make a profit - yes it will be nice when we sell, but I don't want that to be my motivation for choosing another resort instead of RRV).
Other thoughts on why/why not to purchase?
