preconstruction points

Hi all,

I just went to the HHV and was pitched the KingsLand as their 'best point value'. Since KingsLand is still preconstruction they are giving a 50% point bonus.

Thus, the Platinum 2BX we were looking at - normally 9600 pts (and 9600 pts to stay in once it is built) - is being offered with 14,400pts for $60,900.

enjoy,
leo

So if you buy the Platinum 2BX, you get 14,400 pts every year for as long as you own the TS?

Sorry, but the sales person was wrong. It will cost you 14,400 points to stay in a 2BX unit during Platinum season at KingsLand. They may have been trying to use a sales technique of showing you that you could stay in a Waikoloa premium unit for 9600 points until the premium KingsLand opens up.

Think about it this way -- there is no way they could sell a week that takes 9600 points to stay in, and give the buyer 14400 points (per year). What inventory would the extra points come from? It simply would not balance out.
