I love that she indicated there are no resale units in Maui! Duh!! Of course there aren't, since the original developer sales have only just started. But there will eventually be resales, just as with every other completed HGVC resort. It's just a matter of patience. :wall:
There will be, yes. But given what they are charging for Developer sales, it may be a while! My main interest there is what the point values will be for accessing it using using points. I’m wondering if they are going to ration their inventory of rooms available that way.

I fully expect the points values will be comparable to (or maybe even higher than) some of the other new developments, which have generally been higher than older resorts. That seems to be the pattern. Since Maui is considered a desirable location and this is the only HGVC resort, I suspect they will try to make the most of that. We will have to wait and see.

Yes, it will likely be awhile before resales start showing up, but I think it has less to do with the amount initially invested. All it takes is an economic downturn and/or people not being able to use them the way they wanted to or thought they could. That is not always a function of the price paid.

Figure resale units pop up no more than 24 months after sales start. The District resale started popping up less than a year after sales started.

The open season weekly rates are actually pretty good. At those prices it's almost no point in buying more points to be able to stay there.

Agreed. $1659 for a platinum week 1-bedroom compared to 9300 points???

My bet is it will be hard to get a week at open season rates. We will see how much it is on Hilton.com.

We have a VIP preso this summer at Kingland. Maybe they will be able to share MF info by then.

I expect they will offer good MF to point ratios. The high point units may be more available because those owners will likely use their points for lower point units to stretch the value.

We get offered presentations each time we go to NYC, presumably due to W. 57th ownership, even though it's resale. We don't get advance offers at any other locations, though. The perks in NYC are the best, so that's the only location we consider anyway.

Cheers.
