Any ROFR news?

[Michael623]

Well from the Page 12 list I think I'm the only one left to hear. A bad sign? I guess I'll know soon enough

 

[kimpossible]

Well congrats to all those who passed (can't believe the deal fell through on the day I probably would have passed )


This is great news! Hang in there, Michael 623, I will be re-joining the group soon. Don't forget Amybeth is back in, too.

Remember...misery loves company

Congratulations to Martin and Mommytomy3 for getting by ROFR! You must be quite relieved!

To everyone else still hanging in there (or getting back into it), GOOD LUCK & LOTS OF PIXIE DUST! Keep us posted...

Congrats to all those who have made it and pixie dust to the rest of the club.

Sorry but I'm new at this and have a dumb question. Kim said hope the mf aren't a snag. If we are paying the mf, how does that affect it since they are getting their money. Does it affect it even more if you will get banked points. Ours has 04 points in full
Please help, I'm so confused.

Congrats Martin and mommytomy! I'm so happy you passed!!!

Kim, good luck with that contract at BWV - it sounds good to me, especially if one just passed (mommytomy) at $72/point. We are still awaiting our closing papers from closing service. I'm not expecting anything too fast due to Frances. But, I am keeping track of the full time line so I can post that after it's all done!

I love reading this post - so even though I passed I keep checking back on everyone's progress! Pixie Dust to all!!!!!

Maybe someday we can have a ROFR club reunion??!!??

I think she was probably talking about the fact that a few of us have recently been ROFR'd for OKW contracts. Last week, we were RORF'd for the following: 210 points @ 72 dollars April UY, all 2004 points available. My mistake was I only paid the closing cost not the MF's. I learned my lesson . Howver, our friend Amy, was robbed. Her contract was OKW 220 points @ 72 dollars,April UY, no 2004 points, buyer paying closing cost.

We, this thread, I believe, is coming to the opinion that UY has a lot to do with being ROFR'd or not. Let me give an example. I spoke with Jason at the TTS today. He told me that an OKW contract 200 points, June UY, 48 2004 points, with the buyer paying everything, passed at 70 dollars per point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So.... I think it supply and demand. If Disney has current demand for the UY your going for, watch out. If they don't you probably get in.

Just my opinion.

Congrats to all who received good new today, the list is growing!!

Pixie dust to all those still awaiting good news

I agree UY must have something to do with ROFR.

We are waiting for our paperwork. I have already purchased airline tickets for January to Orlando....sure hope we have somewhere to sleep I just couldn't pass up the deal on Delta!!!

Mike,
Have you decided on anything yet???

Kathy, (kaw)

We're almost ready to fight that ROFR monster one more time. Besides, I need to get those points so I can be ready for the ROFR club reunion!

I'll keep you guys posted. We're waiting to see what develops.


Mike

PS. Send us Pixie dust.

 

[Moe]

Yeah I passed. Will be closing soon! Delayed due to Frances. OKW 200 pts $70 each. Happily surprised!

Moe

 

[micki1]

Congrats Moe - when did you go to ROFR and what is your month
I'm very happy for you and it gives me hope. I know I don't want to pay full price but the wait is giving me more grey hair.

Hey Martin Congrats I hope to join you at BC soon,,

PS KIM I am a NY Real estate Attorney and if you have a contract at price they can't just back out. Now I haven't seen the contingencies in your Contract but Id look at that closely you may have them so they can't re-negotiate

OK SO We have not even submitted to rofr and I have the addon bug. we really wanted a K (contract) with 175-180 but we bought (oops are trying to buy)a 150 at BCV which we are happy about. But now we need that little bit extra say 40 points. Should I really be looking for a resale on this. Whats the deal with Disney selling "add ons". I tried to search but could not find a thread on this, of course its late and I am tired. Does anyone out there on my favorite thread know

Thanks Don

BCV 150 points
76.33/pt with all 04 banked points Mar. UY
ROFR not submitted yet awaiting K

You can get add-ons through Disney, smallest increment of points is 25 (I believe). There are incentives for larger point amounts currently (at SSR) but you have to purchase 130 points I think. You also have to keep in mind that points may not be available for your u/y at a specific resort, which means you would have to get on a wait list.

The current resale price at Disney is $89/point. But no hassles. No ROFR. QUICK deal. It's still coming in a good $10/point over the resale market, so I'd keep my eye out for some small contracts via TTS or Jaki. I'm not sure, though, how often really small contracts are available. I've seen some 50 point Vero Beach Ks listed on the resale sites...but nothing to my knowledge from the WDW resorts. That certainly doesn't mean they aren't available, just harder to come by I'd imagine.

BTW...we're in the same boat LOL! We liked the new contract we are bidding on at BWV. But we know that in the future we'll need to add on. Fifty points at most! We may be interested in SSR or waitlist another DVC property through Disney. But that's in the future , first I have to actually pass ROFR on one of these deals! LOL

 

[AmyBeth68]

BTW...RuthnPaul....TOO FUNNY!

 

[kimpossible]

dmciii-

The owner actually asked me to right up a letter stating the specifics that we would both sign and fax to Disney (foolish, I know). Anyway, both DH and I decided that anyone who would make such requests this late in the game was not woth doing buisness with.

I like the contract we have now better (although we are paying a bit more).

Thanks for everyone's support.
