wbutter said:
Just went to ROFL today 10/30 on my first attempt at being an owner.

Wbutter--$66.70-$8671-130-SSR-Aug-130/'13, 130/'14

No MFs until 2014, seller paid closing, I pay admin fee.

Think I got a fair deal, Let's hope it passes.

Just got word we passed ROFR today!
 
Just passed on our second resale purchase:

BLT$98 per point 320 points Dec UY 117/12, 320/13, 320/14, and (sent 11/2, passed 11/25)

Though we paid much higher than we normally would per point, we were given the banked 117 points from 2012 and the 320 points from 2013 without having to pay any dues on them, which brought down the cost considerably. We only pay 2014 dues. Since this has a December UY this is especially good for us.
 
Found out my contract was ROFRd yesterday 11/22 :sad1:

$13,689.75-200-SSR-Oct-104/'12, 200/'13, 200/'14-sent 11/13

The price was $65pp and the total above includes the closing cost, and $195 Fidelity admin fee.


WOW! sorry...

Makes me nervous on my offer. The seller finally got the paperwork back and we just got sent of to disney today. I am hoping it goes through but seeing this makes me wonder!

This was my offer, I thought it was a good deal...

Stevelee---$63-$12,600-200-SSR-Aug-69/'12, 200/'13, 200/'14, 200/'15-sent 11/25

Seller pays all MF on 2012/2013 Points. Buyer pays closing.


Timeline so far. I will update once I hear news!
11/6 - Offer Accepted
11/9 - Contract received and Signed
11/22 - Seller Signs Contract - (took forever!)
11/25 - Sent to ROFR
 
Contract sent to Disney today (11/25)... really hope I get an answer before Christmas as this is a little (ok, not little!) bonus gift for the family.

jasonv1 ---$68-$10200-150-VWL-Aug 24/'13 -300/'14-sent 11/(tbd)

Seller pays MF on all points currently available
Buyer pays 2014 MF at closing

After a recent WDW trip I decided to change things up a bit from our normal family vacation pastime (cruising, though not Disney due to cost of 7 days during the summer). Normally cruise 2-3 times a year, now will insert a WDW trip every 12-24 months.

No issues with OKW and SSR, I just wanted something near a park. It was between this and BWV and possibly AKL, but the $/point and point amount was good (wanted a smaller contract to start) so I took the plunge. When I look to add more (probably next year this time, unless a deal too good to lose pops up) I'll look for some cheaper points; I just need to see how 7 month VWL availability is during the times that we would go to see if I need points homed at VWL or if SSR will do.
 
We found out yesterday that we have passed ROFR, sent 11/1, passed 11/25

$85-$12,750-150-BCV-Feb-0/'13, 138/'14, 150/'15 - sent 11/1

Our first DVC contract!!!!

We went through Fidelity and they have been great to work with
 
Updating:
9/26 - offer
9/27 - accepted
9/30 - contract and deposit
10/3 - submitted for ROFR
10/28 - passed ROFR
11/21 - received closing docs
11/25 - mailed closing docs / check

elcid3 -- $50-$8322.50-150-HHI-April-0/'12, 139/'13, 300/'14-sent 10/3

*I had the seller bank the 2013 points into 2014
*Closing costs were $822.50 including the Fidelity $195 admin fee



Disney has ROFR'ed my last two DVC purchase attempts so hopefully third time is the charm...

elcid3---$50-$8,495-150-HHI-April-0/'12, 289/'13, 150/'14-sent 10/3

**one thing to note is that full closing costs for HHI was $800 versus $400-$500 for Florida-based DVC properties (these numbers don't include the $195 Fidelity fee). I found out it's because they legally have to use an attorney in South Carolina versus a title company. If I had known this up front my offer probably would have been to split closing costs
 
$77-$12,005-150-BWV-Dec-10/'13, 300/'14, 150/'15 - sent 11/1

(explanation of total $ - $77/point, buyer pays $455 closing and '14 maint fees. Maint fees not included in total.)

We passed ROFR!

$77-$12,005-150-BWV-Dec-10/'13, 300/'14, 150/'15 - sent 11/1, passed 11/24
 
Notified that we passed ROFR today. :thumbsup2

Congrats! If this was a Fidelity contract, I believe you outbid me on this one, and I shifted to another. :)

Anyway, Disney took mine today. Bummer! $70 pp / BWV / 30 points / March / all 2013 and forward.

So sorry...that was a super great deal...too good for the mouse to pass up...sorry. I just read on another forum that a 250 point BCV contract also got ROFRd today ($78pp).

Thanks. I knew it was low, but I don't need the points until 2015, so I can afford to take some risks. It was worth a shot.
 
Passed ROFR today :). Morgan729... BLT..$15840... $99/pt... 160 pts...June UY... 16 Pts/12; 320/ 2014 ( banked 2013 and 2014)
 
Ok, don't mean to hijack the tread but just thought of this question. What happens to the seller if Disney ROFR? Does Disney buy it at the contracted price? Or do they just take it? Don't know why I never thought of this before!

If Disney does ROFR a contract they pay what was agreed upon in the contract between the buyer and seller.

Sorry about that, but we really wanted the contract for F&W in 2014. Best of luck in your search for another contract!
 
According to my agent at the Timeshare Store, Disney took 5 properties yesterday, 3@OKW, and 2@VB.
 
$74-$6385-75-VWL - Oct-0/'13, 75/'14, 75/'15--sent 11-5-2014

(explanation of total $ - $74/point, buyer pays closing and '14 maint fees.)

Passed ROFR 12/3. Time for closing! We're excited as this is our first contract and bought in to get our feet wet. I expect the points to go up at some point, likely at another location to get some diversity. :)
