The rise in DVC prices and maintenance fees have gone up even faster.
Not exactly. A broker's incentive is volume, not the specific commission. That's why your real estate agent (or DVC resale broker, for that matter) has the exact opposite incentive as you do in that they want to close the deal ASAP no matter what the price, whereas you want to get the best deal (on either end of the transaction). The only thing that motivates a DVC broker to raise rates is owners refusing to provide the points. As long as there are enough people willing to accept $13.50 or 14.50/point, the price will probably stay where it is. I'd do the same thing if I were a rental broker.
but doesn't he have a shortage of VGF/VGC/BCV/BWV points to rent? I don't see why AKV is thrown into the same tier as the others, when the supply is clearly indicating that that price structure isn't appropriate.
It would seem to me that they need to establish an ultra-premium tier of points...especially during fall frenzy.
