- Contract length: Why 28+ years remaining is the practical threshold.
- Resale vs direct:What you keep, what you lose, and the resorts resale buyers can't book.
- Point sizing:How to pick a count that fits your typical year without paying dues on points you don't use.
- Sanity check: The two things to do before signing — and the calculator that prices it all out.
