Plus expenses, taxes, etc, $75K. How much does $75K get you in DVC? (And remember, you actually own something in Golden Oaks...) (There would still be maintenance fees, and you'd need someone to clean the place up every week or two weeks, when the previous RADP slobs leave. I don't think you get mousekeeping there, and I'm sure I don't want to have to clean the bathroom as one of the first things I do when I go to WDW...) Still something to think about. It's a pretty exclusive neighborhood, and I'm sure Disney wouldn't allow it... :-) Keane -- When stars are born, They possess a gift or two, One of them is this, They have the power to make a wish come true... -- Wishes Visit my site: http://keanespics.com

I'm buying two. ;-) Which ones? A $8M one for the main crib, and the $1.5M one when you want to go slumming? Or be more conservative, and buy say 2-$5M properties side by side? They say you can get your own architect. Wanna make a bet $8M is *not* the high number? >I wonder if I could stay at one using DVC points? Sorry, you've just become a second class citizen. (I think that makes me a 5th class citizen, or something...) Keane, who is accepting donations to try to get the 25K just to get on the list... -- When stars are born, They possess a gift or two, One of them is this, They have the power to make a wish come true... -- Wishes Visit my site: http://keanespics.com

I'd stay in the $8M and use the $1.5M shack as a garage. Maybe let the in-laws stay there when they're in town. >

The second link just brought the same thing up. But since I am in reply mode, one thought: Buena Vista has never had residents until now, so no one could vote up things that Disney would not like, and Disney maintained complete control. Will Disney have a mandatory covenant and homeowners association tied to these homes to ensure its current operation? And if so, what could potentially happen to anyone who tries to break the covenant? I'm really curious how this will effect Disney's status on Buena Vista? jt |
