• Disney Vacation Clubs point based system
  provides Members with awesome flexibility in
  resort choice. When it comes to buying resale DVC
  points, there are some restrictions youll want
  to know about beforehand to help you find the
  right fit. If youre wondering, where can I use
  points as a resale DVC Member, well explore a
  few different answers to this question. For
  starters, it actually depends on where your Home
  Resort is.

• First, lets look over all of the current Disney
  Vacation Club Resorts there are to choose from.
  The following resorts are the Disney Vacation
  Club Resorts at Walt Disney World Disneys
  Animal Kingdom Villas, Bay Lake Tower at Disneys
  Contemporary Resort, Disneys Beach Club Villas,
  Disneys Boardwalk Villas, Boulder Ridge Villas
  at Disneys Wilderness Lodge, Copper Creek Villas
  and Cabins at Disneys Wilderness Lodge, The
  Villas at Disneys Grand Floridian Resort Spa,
  Disneys Old Key West Resort, Disneys Polynesian
  Villas Bungalows, Disneys Riviera Resort and

• If youre considering becoming a resale DVC
  Member, heres where it gets interesting
• Disney Vacation Club shared this in January of
  2019 Effective January 19, 2019, only Members
  who purchase directly from Disney will be able to
  use their Vacation Points at the 14 existing
  Disney Vacation Club Resorts or future
  Resortssuch as Disneys Riviera Resort or
  Reflections A Disney Lakeside Lodge. Resale
  contracts purchased for the existing 14 Disney
  Vacation Club Resorts will only be able to
  exchange Points into those 14 Resorts.

• This change does not apply to contracts purchased
  prior to January 19, 2019. Contracts gifted to
  family members will continue to have the same
  Resort access as before the ownership transfer.
• As of February of 2022 the same idea is shared on
  the official DVC site but in less words and
  leaving more open Effective January 19, 2019,
  Disney Vacation Club Members who do not acquire
  their real estate interest directly from Disney
  Vacation Development, Inc. will not be able to
  make Vacation Point reservations at some or all
  non-Home Resorts.

• Disney Vacation Club also words it this way,
  Effective January 19, 2019, Disney Vacation Club
  Members who do not acquire their real estate
  interest directly from Disney Vacation
  Development, Inc. will only be able to make
  Vacation Point reservations at Disneys Riviera
  Resort if it is their Home Resort.
• In short, this means that if you are a resale DVC
  Member you cant book at Riviera unless its your
  Home Resort. The opposite is also true. If you
  purchase resale DVC with Riviera being your Home
  Resort, you can not use your points to book at
  other DVC resorts. Based on Disneys wording, it
  seems this is the new precedent moving forward.

• You and your people might absolutely love
  Disneys Riviera Resort and dream about days at
  the Mediterranean themed pools, Skyliner rides,
  meals at Topolinos Terrace and nights watching
  Epcot fireworks from your studio! In this case,
  if youre enthused with the thought of only
  staying at Riviera, buying Riviera resale sounds
  like a great fit. Youll get just what you want
  but for a much better price buying resale DVC
  points instead of direct.
• As for upcoming properties, check each individual
  new Disney Vacation Club Resorts specifications
  moving forward. Disney Vacation Club changes some
  rules from time to time and you want to make sure
  the agreement in place at the time works for you.
  For example, weve seen the amount of direct
  points needed to make Members eligible for
  Membership Extras rise to the current number of
  150. That wasnt always the case and the Members
  who purchased when that required number was lower
  are locked in.
