Why Sellers Trust DVC Sales

What Selling DVC Actually Looks Like

If you've never sold a DVC contract before, the process probably sounds more complicated than it actually is. You fill out a short listing form, we confirm your contract details with you by phone, and your listing goes live the same day. That's it for your part. From there, we handle the marketing, the buyer inquiries, the offer negotiations, and the closing coordination.

When a contract is priced correctly, it typically receives an offer within 30 days. Popular resorts like Saratoga Springs, Old Key West, and Bay Lake Tower move quickly. Overpriced contracts sit regardless of resort — the market is efficient and buyers comparison-shop across every broker. We give you an honest pricing recommendation up front so your listing competes from day one.

How Our Commission Actually Saves You Money

Here's the math. The industry average DVC resale commission is 9.5%. Some brokers tack on admin fees or processing fees on top of that. We charge 6.9% flat. No admin fee, no processing fee, no fine print.

On a 200-point Saratoga Springs contract that sells for $22,000, a 10% broker takes $2,200 from your proceeds. At 6.9%, your commission is $1,518. That's $682 more in your pocket. On a larger contract, say 300 points at Riviera selling for $40,000, the savings jump to over $1,200. And unlike some brokers, we don't charge the buyer a separate fee that gets baked into a lower offer price. Our 6.9% is the total cost.

What Happens After You Get an Offer

When a buyer submits an offer, you'll get notified right away by email and text. You can accept, decline, or counter directly from your dashboard. If you accept, we send the contract to both parties for electronic signatures. No printing, no scanning, no trips to FedEx.

After both sides sign, the contract goes to our closing team who coordinates with the title company and Disney. Disney has a Right of First Refusal period (usually about 30 days) where they can choose to buy the contract at your agreed price. They waive the vast majority of contracts. If Disney does exercise ROFR, they simply step in as the buyer — you receive the exact same proceeds at the same commission rate, and the sale closes normally.

Once Disney waives, the title company handles the deed transfer, and you get paid. The whole process from accepted offer to closing typically takes approximately 45 days. We keep you posted every step of the way.

What You're Responsible For as a Seller

Your costs are straightforward. You pay our 6.9% commission and Disney's $150 estoppel fee. The buyer pays the closing costs and Disney's $500 administration fee. That split is standard across the industry, but here's where we're different: we don't let buyers negotiate those costs onto you during the offer process. Some brokers allow that, and sellers end up paying an extra $500 to $700 they didn't expect. We don't play that game.

If your closing falls between January and November, the buyer reimburses you for annual dues on the current year's bankable points. If you close in December, no reimbursement is needed for current year points. It's a clean, predictable process.

DVC Sales isn't a marketplace or a listing board. We're a licensed real estate brokerage based in Winter Garden, Florida, about 15 minutes from Walt Disney World. We hold an active Florida real estate license and carry errors and omissions insurance. Every transaction runs through a licensed title company with funds held in escrow until Disney approves the transfer.
