Anyone made it through (or not made it through) ROFR recently? - Section V

The difference between the asking price and what I offered (and eventually paid) was $13 per point a few months ago. Offers should not be based at all on asking price. Offer what you believe the contract is worth. If someone rejects that offer, move on to another contract. There is always another one.

Absolutely agree. Offer what you are willing to pay, regardless of list price.

Update: Closed Nov 26, got my member number by calling Member Administration yesterday, and got set up online with my 1 time activation pin today. And guess what? On top of the full 100 2012 UY points, there are 100 banked points in my contract that I didn't know about!! So I've made my first reservation for 2 months from now with my first choice

Once I was all set up, my other DVC (that just closed 4 days ago, and is a different U/Y) was already showing up online, but the points weren't loaded yet. I'll be booking the second part of my vacation with the banked points from that one.

I'm deliriously happy right now!
Thanks for everyone's help!!

Heard from TSS that my contract passed ROFR today. Submitted 11/15, passed 12/11. OKW (2042) 100 pt contract, June UY, 109 current pts, 100 2013, buyer pays 2013 MF and closing, seller paid 2012 MF. It's a little higher than I wanted to pay ($2/pt more), but it has more points to use this year, and as long as I get signed in on-line by 1/31 I can bank most of those into next year (if I don't use them first).

If I can get signed on before my trip at the end of January, I'd like to book some rooms for myself with basically zero preferences (I'd like a washer in the room-so a 1 bedroom-my last day there, but that's it, I'd stay anywhere for any number of days under 100 pts total).

Can't wait for my first trip home!

Passed ROFR today! First contract and super excited!

157 pts at BWV, 272 currently available and all future pts. 61$pp March UY. Bought thru TTS.

Now I hope we can close in time to get our discounted PAPs!

Congrats on your contract, I also paid a little more for my add on but wanted the same use year so I am happy with that and I still paid half of what I would have paid if I bought direct!

Thanks undfan for keeping me honest. I'll catch that change in the next update.

We just got our first DVC contract back in August and addonitis has already hit. We just passed ROFR on two more contracts, yay! Again, a big thanks to all of you who post ROFR prices. It's such a big help to know where the market is at!

310 BCV (Apr) $44, 21 '11 pts, 198 '12 pts, all '13 pts, buyer pays closing and split 2012 mf (sub 10/3, passed 11/27)

190 BCV (Apr) $46, 0 '11 pts, 110 '12 pts, all '13 pts, buyer pays closing and split 2012 mf (sub 9/26, passed 11/27)


The broker botched the paperwork on the first submission and I didn't start asking questions until 4 weeks had passed. They had to resubmit everything on 10/26. Fortunately, Member Services was very helpful and let me bank the remaining 2012 points 1 1/2 weeks late.

44$ and 46$??? For BCV?? Please tell me that's a typo !

You're my heeeero!

Where in the world did you find those? They ROFRd mine at the same time for 59/pt, with fewer available points...

I actually got them both from a bankruptcy estate sale. I wasn't planning on buying more after our previous BCV contract, but the price was sooo good and the UY lined up exactly with our other BCV contract.

DDDDDDDAMN these r some good prices!

[Firepath]

Wow, I guess those bankruptcy sales are worth the wait! Congrats to everyone who passed this week.
