Need a week, not sure what.

[Disneyprincess1978]

Okay, please help. I want to do weekends or mini weeks at Hyatt Wild Oak Ranch for about 6 years and then have a good trader at relatively low lost.

I found an odd year at Hyatt for $5K plus MF and closing.

Should I buy, they refused a lower offer or what should I get.

Thanks,

You don't have to own at HWO to book there - as long as you get a deeded week with Hyatt Residence club (not Hyatt Vacation club, which is Welk) you can book using points. With HRC, you can use your owned week OR use the associated points.

The value of a Hyatt deeded week depends on the season, which you did not mention the location or the season (or week owned, which determines the season) - so it is hard to say. EOYs tend to go for less than half of a EY unit, so 5K sounds steep for resale even if a Platinum week. And where matters also.

If you are interested in learning about HRC, you need to go to the HRC forum.

See the posts at the top of the forum - called stickies. You can learn a lot about HRC there.

Forum (there is a HVC subforum, but clicking this forum should be the HRC one , which confused some folks who post HVC questions there):

Hyatt Vacation Club / Hyatt Residence Club​

If you don't get a lot of responses, you might also post your question in the Hyatt forum, since that is likely where the most expertise will be for you.

does the season of the week you are seeing line up with when you want to go to the property?

Yes

Yes

The other problem is it will only get you there three out of the next six years.

The OP said they want to do weekends or mini weeks - so that means they are not using their home week and instead using points. Therefore it does not matter where they own as you have no advantage at your home resort when using points.

They can stretch out the points by making shorter stays, and/or by staying in a 1br or studio, and/or traveling in lower seasons (assuming they buy a high season, which is always recommended).

Once they look at the points chart, they will see that weekdays are generally half as much as weekends.

@Disneyprincess1978 , there is a free Diamond, 2200 points EY at HRC being given away in the free TS section. Closing costs are also being contributed to, and free 2025 use, so a very good deal. It is in PR, so MFs are 2700$, similar to Cali, high but not a bad deal, IF you want to get into Hyatt. (PR has some quirks & longer closing etc) but getting a Diamond week at Pinon Pointe will cost you significantly up front. May look into it, vs paying 5k + closing + MF (= 8k+) for a EOY, as you are looking at. TY

Thanks, I will check it out.

Looks like this post got moved - thanks to the moderator !

Free is a great deal - but if you plan to stay in this is the long run and use your points a lot, you may want to consider spending money up front and saving 600-1000 dollars a year in maint fees which adds up over the long run. PR has had a huge rebuild lately due to the hurricanes.

Agree (but as compared to the crummy EOY x points the OP was posting for 5k + closing + MF, had suggested at least a solid 2200 pt Diamond week for free with free 2025 use ($2700 saved right there) + 1500 towards closing) would be better (not the best).
Agree, buying EY, Pinion Pointe or San Antonio 2,000 or 2200 at a reasonable cost would be the even better. TY
