The secret is out. I just bought a very small add-on 25 points at OKW. $70 per point, submitted to Disney 7/19, and passed ROFR today, 7/27. It certainly surprised me. At that price I was 100% sure that Disney would not pass it. I'm shocked.

Awesome - gives me hope. We'll be submitting our contract later this week to the reseller to then present to Disney for ROFR. (OKW, 230 pts @ 72 per pt).

Congratulations on your add on!

 

[iankh]

To be honest, I REALLY expected to be turned down. I already have points at VWL and was going to slowly build up at OKW. I had called DVC and the ponts were there. I got to thinking that at $70 a point, even with the closing costs it was cheaper than DVC, so I thought nothing ventured nothing gained. Worse comes to worse there's always direct from Disney at rack rate.

What shocks me is that it took only a week!

Some Vero ROFR News ...

I was surprised that Disney executed ROFR on my recent purchase contract for 150 points at Vero Beach. (We were trying to add-on to our existing DVC points.) Here are the details.

150 December Use Year (Vero)
150 Banked 2004 points
$72.00 per point
SELLER pays all closing costs and current year maintenance fees

Submitted on 6/27, ROFR executed on 7/12.

That is pretty suprising, considering someone just recently passed ROFR with 150 points at $63 per point! I wonder if someone was waiting on your UY... I think they have relaxed a little on the higher prices... I mean 25 pts OKW going for $70!!! and not long ago a 50 pt at OKW went for $80!

Get your offers in quick while the gettin's good!

Sorry to hear of your ROFR. Its a bummer believe me I know. But the "Disney Gods" must have something better for you in mind. So just hang in there and the pixie dust will come your way. Heres a little to get it started....

 

[tigger002]

My deal has fallen through. I made the offer early to mid May and really never got good answers from the atty handling the closing which was being paid by the sellers (some deal the broker offered). Never signed a contract and the atty said I would not get one until Disney passed(why?what was being given to Disney). This was the beginning of wondering what was going on as I had only made a verbal offer and recd a verbal okay from the broker. Two months later I recd a contract(deed and amount still owing) with no mention of the 120 banked pts, no title insurance and some $75 addition in charges for mailing, etc (which appeared to be part of doing business and closing). I asked for a lot of information this time before signing and was told the deal was off. So I guess it was not meant to be.

Thank your lucky stars, Tigger! You were obviously dealing with a seller who didn't know what they were doing, represented by an attorney who didn't know what they were doing either. You are better off without both.

 

[T.E. Yeary]

I must say I am shocked to see Vero Beach was ROFR'd at $72. I agree with Vascubaguy. Disney must have had a buyer waiting in the wings. If I were you, I'd try again with a different use year.

Tigger,

I sent you a PM. A very similar thing happened to me with the second BW contract I tried to buy. I am wondering if we were dealing with the same outfit.

[Beca]

tigger002 - I'm SOOOO sorry!!! I really hope you find another contract soon. It's awful to spend so much time on something that never happened!!

Also, I'm sorry I have been updating as often....my life is in a little turmoil here...we MAY be moving home to Texas!! I am so excited (I am trying not to be), but I am still working, trying to get my house together to sell, and trying to find time to be with my dd....things are a little crazy!!

Lisa S, discruiser and Iankh - CONGRATULATIONS!!!

JeffPort - sorry to hear about your ROFR. I am surprised as well, but with the seller paying all the closing fees....that's probably what made DVC want to take it. I hope you have much better luck next time.

I swear this sounds like a broker I once tired to make an offer with... the points changed, there was no feedback.. you get the picture. I have dealt with the board sponsor and one other and those are the only two I plan to deal with in the future. Both were very professional....

 

[T.E. Yeary]

Tigger002, Who was the Broker?

It would be a shame to have this same thing happen to another board member.

Anyone else that passed ROFR back in mid-July still waiting for final closing papers? Does it seem to be taking longer than expected?

I was notified I passed ROFR on July 18th and told I should receive final documents in about 10 days... that was about 18 days ago (14 business days) and still no word that they are on their way. Maybe the title companies are backed up?

Hopefully I'll get everything early next week...
