I'll preface my question by saying my trust in salespeople is not very high. However my guide thus far has been pretty forthcoming about many things. Trust but verify seems appropriate. Dis has been very good for research.
Long story short we put a deposit down on CCV last weekend. I'm just trying to figure out a timeline of when we get to play with our new toy. Lots of good resale timline stuff here, but the direct sales stuff doesn't seem as current. Poor guide had lost his voice, so it was cracking like teenager. So I feel like I may not have heard everything 100% on the phone, and maybe he told me the timeline and I didn't quite comprehend it at the time.
Saturday we put the deposit down(direct sale).
Monday AM we received and activation email, but have yet to receive our member id. The email suggested that was coming with the closing documents. I've also read the closing documents are online. Of course you can't do anything online unless until you have a member id and activation code.
We tend to vacation the last week of February and into first week of March which puts us close to our 11 month window. I can't help but think with a 10 day waiting period etc we'll miss the first day of our 11 month window.
The guide mentioned we should call for our first reservation rather than online, as they hold back some inventory or have some type of advantage to help first time buyers with their first reservation. Is that true, or a bit of smoke and mirrors? Knowing we are after a studio that is already in short supply, it makes me a little suspect. Obviously could go 1 bedroom, or chance the 7 month thing for other resorts, as we are happy anywhere really.
Thanks for the help.
Lots of good info here and we went into a direct ccv purchase with eyes wide open.
