Summer is almost here and things are starting to heat up at Disney! Disney Vacation Club resale prices are on the rise and now might even be the best time for you to buy. If you are considering selling your DVC points or purchasing DVC points from the resale market, it’s great to keep an eye out on trends and prices. This historic data serves as a reference point for the growth of Disney Vacation Club on the secondary market and the stats shared come strictly from Fidelity Real Estate. Take a look at the May 2022 average DVC resale price per point for resorts.
What’s Coming Up At Disney
Summer is just around the corner, so many families will be heading out for a Disney vacation very soon! Disney guests have some very exciting things to look forward to on their getaways.
We mentioned last month that the new Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction was in previews at EPCOT. The ride is now open to the public and currently offers a virtual queue. Virtual queues are reservations for a ride time that are made through the My Disney Experience app. EPCOT guests can log on at two times during the day (7 AM and 1 PM, as of now) to reserve a spot in line. These time slots go fast, so make sure you’re on the app at the right time.
It was recently confirmed that a long-awaited refurbishment will be taking place at Boulder Ridge Villas. There is currently no timeline for when these improvements will take place, but DVC owners have been looking forward to them since the refurb was announced in 2019. We expect that the villas will be updated with more modern interiors and furnishings. We will keep you updated on these refurbishments when more details come out.
This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to exciting things to come at the Disney parks! Current owners will be delighted at all of the improvements they will see in the upcoming years. So, if you’re not a DVC member, then what are you waiting for? If you’re ready for a lifetime of magic, then maybe it’s time you join Disney Vacation Club! Of course, buying DVC points on the resale market is a great idea to dip your toes in the water or add points to your membership.

DVC Resale Prices Are Always Changing!
As you can see from the chart above, it’s hard to predict what DVC resales will sell for each month. Resale prices at some resorts went up, while some went down. Regardless of the month-to-month prices, you can see that almost every resort’s resale prices have increased from 2021’s average cost per point. May 2022’s average DVC resale price per point was $134.93, while May 2021’s average was $112.53.
The asking price per point for every sale can vary depending on several things. The average resale price per point for May 2022 does signify that, for the most part, resale prices are still rising for DVC. However, this does not mean that all contracts will sell at or above the average.
If you are considering selling your DVC points, the price per point in which you sell can depend on the immediate availability of your points or even how many points you are allotted every year. If you have any pending reservations, this can also affect the selling price per point.

While the savings of purchasing a DVC resale contract are substantial compared to purchasing directly from Disney, there are pros and cons to each. Ultimately, it’s up to you to decide whether or not Disney Vacation Club is worth it, resale or not. Make sure you are up to date on all DVC resale restrictions, as they may sway you from purchasing resale. However, buying DVC points on the secondary market can be a great idea if you are adding points to your existing membership.
