Add on points

[grumpy06]

Need advice
We are current dvc owners at SSR and want to add on points
Is there any good reason not to buy resale or should we continue with direct
Thanks

The only real reason to buy direct right now, is so that your existing points can be combined with your new points for any of the newer resorts (RIV & CFW). Resale points can no longer be combined for new resorts.

I bought direct because I could use a credit card and get my cards rewards. I also did not want to hassle with financing, waiting 8+ weeks to close, etc. Granted DVC is not offering any decent incentives currently and it is much cheaper to go resale. Also, I just could not wait that long to close as the 11 month window for our next planned trip is coming up pretty quickly.
With direct, I called my guide, told him what I wanted. and my new points and contract were on the books that day. They will also split the payment so you don't go over your cards limit.

As @Matty B13 stated, resale cannot be combined for new resorts.

Hope this helps.

What are you thinking of buying and what do you own now?
