Re: I'm interested in buying Hilton or Hyatt VC - Why have so many hit the resale market? (by John W.):
Lisa, I've been eyeballing Hyatt. I'm a DVC member so am familiar with points. From what I have seen on the resale market for Hyatt are either the ski resorts where you get 1 week during ski season, plus around 10 flex days. I believe they are actually 1/20th share. Rather pricey, the lower priced Hyatt's I've seen(FL.AZ) ones seem to be in bronze season which doesn't really give you many points to trade(so you go during less desirable times or can't stay for a full week).
I've got kids too and we really like the flexibility of the Disney points. We own at Saratoga Springs(on site at WDW) and Vero Beach. You have to be on the ball with the booking windows for your home resort for holiday periods(11 months out, then it's every person for themselves at 7). If you really need to be on the ball during busy times, which don't always conicide with common thought.
