Originally Posted By bluebayou First off, let me say I own DVC - 250 points - Saratoga Springs and I love the point system. It is a great value, etc. I do want to point out another option though. (We own here as well). There is a larger timeshare company in Orlando which deals in weeks - not points. If you are looking to buy deeded real estate which you can pass down to your kids - then go take a look at Westgate Resorts. They are the largest privately owned timeshare company in the world and in fact, they represent 56% of the market here in Orlando. They have over 350,000 owners. It is a low pressure sales presentation (at least the one we were at - it probably depends on the rep). Our rep is a guy named JC and he is very laid back - no hard tactics, etc. Our resort is the Westgate Lakes and it is near Disney, Universal, etc. We own a 4 bedroom, 1600 sq foot condo. It is huge. If you are interested in finding out more about Westgate, call 888-608-9570 and give them reference #25951. They have an offer to visit for something like $99 for 4 days and 3 nights. Please don't slam me for putting the information here - again - we own both - I would just like to show another option.

Originally Posted By VCR_Pongo I have more than a few. I have 450 at Boardwalk. I also own at Beach Club, and Saratoga. Once AK is selling, I am going to sell my Beach Club and try to get more Boardwalk. My goal is to eventually sell all of my Beach Club and Saratoga and replace them with more Boardwalk. It's been very difficult to get more Boardwalk points.
