DVC Resale Average Sales Prices for February 2022

This article features the average sales price of contracts categorized by resort and month sold from February 2021 through February 2022 by DVC Resale Market (DVCRM).

Our goal for this article is to provide great directional information for anyone considering a Disney Vacation Club (DVC) resale purchase or just wanting to satisfy a general curiosity of prices and trends.

How to Evaluate DVC Resale Prices

The price of a resort can vary based on the size of the contract in points, the current point availability of the contract (i.e., points current, banked and borrowed) as well as other various factors (i.e., extended Old Key West contracts, subsidized dues contracts, etc.).

For example, contracts that are smaller and have higher points availabilities tend to sell for more than the average price per point and vice versa.

Is Now the Time to Make An Offer?

As the world begins to get back to normal, resale prices are starting to show signs that now might be the perfect time to make an offer on that DVC resale contract you’ve had your eye on.  February 2022 marked an overall neutral month for average Disney Vacation Club resale prices, with the simple average remaining around $154 per point.  This was driven largely by a huge jump from one resort in particular (more on that later), while over half of the other properties saw a modest average price decrease.  The primary exception to this is BoardWalk and Beach Club, both of which continue to see surging prices driven by high right of first refusal (ROFR) activity.

Looking ahead, we would be remiss if we did not mention the news and pricing of the new Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa as announced earlier this week.  While it remains to be seen what long-term effects these prices have on the resale market, what is for certain is that now is the time for buyers looking to snag a good deal.  Some Grand Floridian contracts have already seen price reductions to the $160s and $170s per point.  Initial direct incentives on this new DVC property are currently set to expire on March 30th, suggesting that these opportunities may not be around for long.

Grand Californian Surpasses $300 Per Point

Back on June 24th, 2021, The Villas at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel saw its direct price per point jump to an unthinkable level of $310 per point.  A little more than six months later, average resale prices for the Grand Californian are following in its footsteps, hitting an average resale price of $301 per point in February 2022.  Ask any of our sales associates that were DVC Cast Members when Grand Californian originally went on sale, and they will probably laugh at the thought that we’re even writing this due to how difficult it was to originally sell this property.  As Elon Musk would say… Grand Californian to the moon!
