How Long a DVC Listing Has Been Active — and Why It Might Not Matter as Much as You Think
Curious how long a DVC listing has been active? It’s easy to find out. Just visit the Listing Info page, where you’ll see the number of days a contract has been on the market clearly displayed. This feature is designed to give buyers full transparency without needing to contact our team for updates.
While many buyers use this information as part of their decision-making process, it’s important to understand that time on the market doesn’t tell the full story. A contract might have been listed for 30–40 days with no activity, only to receive multiple offers the moment the seller adjusts the price. What matters more than duration is value.
Rather than focusing on how long a contract has been available, we recommend evaluating it based on price-per-point, current point availability, and how it compares to similar listings. Buyers who base offers purely on days active often miss opportunities or make low offers that don’t reflect true market conditions.
Remember, no two DVC contracts are exactly alike. Variations in use year, point bankability, and closing timelines can all impact value. A contract that’s been listed longer might be more attractive now than it was when first posted — especially if the price or available points have changed.
For sellers, don’t be discouraged if your listing hasn’t moved quickly. Competitive pricing and updated information are what drive action, not simply time online.
