All-I've read through threads and think I know the answer but looking for confirmation. If we purchase BlueGreen points resale are the reservation windows honored for various levels? Bronze 12 months out, Silver 13 months, etc.? I understand the perk of buying "bonus time" is not available and we can do without that. Anything else we should know?

You don't earn levels for buying resale. If you are already at one of the levels you can use your resale point to waitlist at your current level. You do get bonus time at the resort you own at (the one on your contract). You just don't get systemwide bonus time.

Thank you....so we would have the standard 11 month availability to reserve?

Before you buy resale, look into Club Wyndham resale first. When I was first figuring out what systems to buy into, I was able to observe that Wyndham has cheaper accommodations and the resorts are better quality than Bluegreen. MF in Bluegreen are structured in that the more you own, the less you pay per point. Therefore, unless you have a ridiculous amount of points in trust fund E (if I remember correctly), Wyndham resale is the better deal (more bang for your buck). This only works if you have the correct Wyndham contract though. If you just get Club Wyndham Access points, it's about equally cost effective as Bluegreen. If you get a deed with low underlying maintenance fees, that's where the huge value is.

I always though bluegreen was the same amount per point no matter how many points you own. More dependent on which trust fund you are in
