Hi everyone

[cwipf]

Hello I am from New Jersey. t is my 1st time here at
ouseowners. I am very interested in renting and buying points, etc. can u make any suggestions

First, welcome to the boards!! Enjoy your stay!!

Second, are you interested in renting, buying, or both? Many people rent points before they buy into DVC as a sort of test drive for it. But, we'll know better how to answer your question if you can provide us with a little more clarification.

Yo Joisey!

I'm from NJ too!

Renting first is a good idea! Everyone at this site is very nice, and except for me trustworthy!

OKW=Old Key West
VWL=Villa at WIlderness Lodge
BCV=Beach Club Villas
BWV=Boardwalk Villas
SSR=Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa
These 5 DVC locations are all at WDW in Orlando
VB=Vero Beach (about 1.5 hours from WDW)
HH or HHI=Hilton Head or Hilton Head Island (I think) This is some beach resort somewhere not in FL. Perhaps SC?

HTH=Hope That Helps!

BTW (By The Way) Do you like frogs?

From another Jerseyan - welcome!

There are so many of us here, why doesn't Disney expand to NJ? Oh - that's because we WANT to get away from the winters!!

I don't have a strong opinion regarding frogs (other than to be nice to them), but I love your photos of 'em. Does that count?

Welcome!

If you're intersted in renting, make sure you post a "want ad" on the Rent / Trade board. There aren't a lot of post from people with points to burn, but if you share what you're looking for, I'm sure someone will contact you. People are watching... :bugeyed:

The rental page that Deep Thots posted should help you determine how many points you need and give you some other tips on renting. If you have other questions, don't hesitate to ask. I rented twice myself before realizing how crazy I was for putting-off buying in the first place. :jumpingbe
