Thank you all for the information provided about canceling the contract. My wife and I signed our contact yesterday (1/7/20) and have already written our cancellation letter. We had met with Kevin at Orange Lake in Kissimmee, Fl. He was not pushy at all. We did not feel pressured, but the picture was painted beautifully. It seemed like such a great deal considering the amount of money we spend yearly on trips as it is. My sale cost was 60k points for $13,900 before all the other junk added to the final cost. I am happy to have found this forum. I look forward to learning more about how all this work, and how to find better deals. Thanks

Buy resale and search for a system with resorts and locations you want to go.

We used to own there. Yes it is a nice resort last we went there. However, if you do like the idea of staying there when you visit Central FL, I would suggest renting from current owners. You can probably rent there for less than what the owners pay in MFs. If you can travel there within 45 days' notice, try advertising in TUG's last Minute Rental forum where owners can charge you no more than $800 per week. AFAIK, that's somewhat less than the MFs there.

Renting also allows you to "try before you buy". That way, you can see if owning a TS would be right for you.
