I know very little about DVC, but was interested in finding out the cost to make bay lake the home resort and what sort of point package it would require. Thanks.
I've made an appointment for next Sunday pm to see the models. Really I just want to see if I can get some VIP fastpasses and a ride in a DVC van over to the Contemporary as I have a dinner ressie at the Cali Grill.
The models are actually at the Saratoga Springs Resort. But you can probably still get a ride to the Contemporary, as they'll take you almost anywhere after the tour. They gave us $15 gift cards per person(x4) for taking the tour from Downtown Disney before a certain time. I heard they are also giving out DVC hats. I don't know if you have to buy to get those. We ended up buying and they gave us the fastpasses.
Right now they are offering the points at $112 minus $5 per point plus you get matching developer points to be used at SSR. 160pts minimum(new buyer). I think if you buy at least 220pts, there's an option for a 5 night stay, 1BR at any DVC, subject to availability. MF's are around 3.67 per point or something like that.
I know the models are at SSR, I'm staying there. SSR is one of my home resorts. We scheduled the appointment with our guide late pm on Sunday, so we can get a free "cab ride" via DVC van to dinner.

I would call your guide to see if you can get the 5nt 1br option, if that's what you want. My guide told me the matching SSR points was a better deal. Seeing you bought so many points, maybe your guide thought it was just better to have the SSR deal, since 320pts would would be enough for a 2BR at SSR for a full week during magic season. I don't know if they're done with the 1BR 5nt stay at any DVC, but it wouldn't totally surprise me if they stopped that incentive choice.
