Depending on the time of the year you want to go, tickets range from $109 to $159 per day, for a single park. Christmas break is the $159 per day. Park Hopper passes are more. Until January 9, you will also need a park reservation in addition to your ticket.
If you stay on property, you can use Disney transportation around the property. It's easy and reliable. If you stay on property and decide to drive to a park, there is no parking fee. Good for your last day when you just want to leave after your day at the park instead of going back to your hotel first.

Correction “ If you are a Guest staying at a Disney Resort hotel, you receive complimentary standard parking at Disney theme parks for the length of your Resort stay. You must present valid Disney Resort hotel identification to enter the parking lots.”

Yes, free parking for the stay if staying at a Disney hotel.
My reference to the last day was suggesting they drive that day instead of using park transportation to save time at the end of the day.

I don’t have the $8K for the trip. If I can contribute in some way, lovely.
Thanks, everyone.

I own several Disney timeshares - and we always go for Christmas. The timeshares are usually booked at 11-months - it is the busiest time of the year and very difficult to get rooms. You might be able to book timeshare rooms, but it will be very very expensive - if there are any openings. Your best bet is to just a Disney hotel and buy your tickets from Undercover tourist (to save some money).

I love fun spot. Great if you love go karts. Food is very reasonable. There are two of them in Orlando.

Timeshares are a waste of money and a terrible decision.

OP isn’t looking to buy a time share, looking for someone who is a DVC member to acquire their points. But thanks for sharing your thoughts.

OP I check with two companies I know that sells points, there are some dates available, around Christmas. Starting at $3,600 and up for 4-5 days
