Crystal Ball: Where do you see resale prices going for rest of 2025?

[Girlstar30]

The home resort booking period has to be the same for all owners. So, yes, they can shorten it, and then all owners with points that trade via BVTC can have access to that resort.

They can even make each resort a different home resort window. Some could be one month and others longer.

But the rules for trading are based on the resort and not individuals. You have to read the DVC resort agreement for that. Trading is allowed once the home resort period is over.

I do not see them giving home resort owners a shorter window for giving non resort owners access to

As I said, BVTC has a lot of ways to in change trading rules, but I don’t read in any of the DVC resort agreements that would allow for a different trading window based on number of points.

So, they can charge a fee, and they can make a new trading chart, but I see nothing in an DVC resort agreement that allows an owner who has eligible points to be given a different window based on how many points they own.

The one month requirement is the minimum based on FL law…we enjoy 4 months and I don’t see how it benefits DVD to sell with a shorter one.

I can see them making it larger down the line for restricted resorts…to give those owners more time…but shortening doesn’t make logical sense, even assuming they could find a way to support with the DVC resort agreement for each resort.

Oh ok yes that one didn't specifically say it has to be the same for all owners so I didn't know that! Ignore previous post haha

I read that I would be responsible for that as well

Of course you would! You are an owner. This is one of the risks of ownership.

Just a reminder,,, let’s not get into talk that can be seen as political…facts…there are new tariffs in place and now that might impact are okay…sharing opinions about it beyond that are not.

Can I add....that if people DO want to discuss any political aspects....come join some of us on the controversial section of the Dis!

I believe you need to request access from @WebmasterCorey but I can't remember how to do it.

Oh wow! Addressing things head on. I wonder if they are worried? They have a lot of positive press right now.

Yeah, opening a major theme park as the economy goes south--I'm sure they are very worried.

Add in, the areas look great--and there are two stunning attractions, from what I can tell--but I'm not even sure there's enough attractions or shows to make this a full day park...yet. So there's the economic hurdle of the downtrending stock market and lots of layoffs right now. I'm guessing that once reviews come out for Epic--which I think will be very positive--it may become apparent to some that the park will probably be quickly expanded. So I'm guessing that some may sit out the first year or two and fly down when there's a little more in Epic. Again, only a guess.

Isn't there more than DHS and Ak

Isn't there more than DHS and AK? There's more rides than Epcot as well.

 

[Girlstar30]

There are enough rides and lands to interest people... all the lands have at least two rides i believe... probably more than animal kingdom i was surprised by the lack of rides there

I think it's rides vs "attractions."

Epic has 11 rides. Add in "attractions" and I believe it tops out at 17 total. More rides than both AK and DHS, less than Epcot. When you count "attractions" each WDW park currently has more.

I just watched a ton of vlogs. Super Nintendo and Isle of Berk each have three. Harry Potter has one. The other two lands have two.

AK is a mess at the moment, with tons of things closed or closing. But DHS is probably a good comparison--but DHS still has a little more overall. Feel free to quibble on which ride goes in which category. I put all the coasters for both parks in the second category. Also, I think that DHS struggles still to be a full day park.

I will start the quibble with Minecart madness should be significant over mariokart, but mainly because I think the ride in California sucks and I was disappointed
