Selling Your DVC Points

Posted On September 6, 2025

Navigate the DVC resale process with confidence using this complete guide to listing, valuing, and successfully selling your Disney Vacation Club points.

Selling your Disney Vacation Club (DVC) points can feel overwhelming at first, but with the right support and strategy, it can be a smooth and rewarding experience. Whether you’re looking to transition out of your contract or want to unlock the value of unused points, understanding the resale process is key to getting the best return. This guide explains what to expect when selling your DVC points, including important resale steps, legal considerations, and how to find a qualified buyer.

When Is the Right Time to Sell DVC Points?

Members choose to sell their points for many reasons: lifestyle changes, shifting travel habits, or simply no longer using the membership. Before you decide, review your current contract details such as the Use Year, remaining points, and annual dues. Knowing your resort’s popularity and contract size can influence resale value. For example, properties like Disney’s Beach Club Villas or Bay Lake Tower often see strong buyer demand.

If you’re unsure whether now is the right time, use the DVC Resale Value Calculator to estimate your contract’s current worth.

How to List Your DVC Contract for Sale

Selling your points through a licensed broker is the most secure way to ensure a legal and efficient transaction. DVC Sales provides verified listings, buyer screening, and full support through closing. Start by filling out the simple DVC Special Request form to have your contract reviewed and valued.

Once your contract is listed on the DVC Resale Listings page, interested buyers can make offers, and your broker will guide negotiations. It's a hands-off, no-hassle process for sellers.

 

The Role of Disney’s ROFR (Right of First Refusal)

During every DVC resale transaction, Disney has the Right of First Refusal (ROFR), meaning they can choose to buy back the contract at the agreed sale price before it reaches the buyer. This step ensures Disney maintains control over inventory and resale pricing trends. Working with experienced brokers can help set a competitive yet ROFR-safe price for your listing.

 

Transfer Fees and Seller Costs

Selling a DVC contract includes a few key fees. The buyer typically covers the closing costs and ROFR transfer fee, while sellers are responsible for annual dues if they’ve not been paid for the current year. There are no upfront fees when listing with DVC Sales, and commission is only due upon successful sale.

Timeline and Payout Expectations

From listing to closing, the resale process generally takes 6 to 10 weeks, depending on ROFR and title transfer timing. Once the sale is finalized and Disney processes the ownership transfer, sellers receive payment via check or direct deposit.
