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

[Cinderpals]

That's a great ending to your wait for the 50 BCV points!! Isn't that interesting how you didn't find out until you were making reservations!! Now, you get your '05 points and can book them right away** Even better!
Congratulations

 

[disgirl]

Beca and Cinderpal: Thanks for the kind words. I guess it is a happy ending for us. However those extra 50 points would have been fun to work with. HA!! I have to say I am a little envious of you two though with all those BCV points. No, seriously, I am happy for you. My son, DH, and I LOVE the BC. Good Luck on your new contracts and I'll be rooting for you!!

disgirl, I was glad to hear about your add on at BCV. At least you have BCV points to use now!

Disgirl,

I am so sorry you did not pass ROFR. Frankly, I am surprised that I did. I fully expects at $76 to not get through (even though another poster on this board who shall remain nameless told me to be positive).

I was already looking at other contracts and had picked out an OKW I was interested or had considered SSR.

Who knows why they passed it? Could they have bought up enough to fill the waitlists they had? Could it have been because all of the 2005 were not there? Who knows?

But, please do take heart.

 

[disgirl]

Thanks again everyone for your kind responses.

Ian: That really is great you got that contract for that price. You are right, I think sometimes it is just all about timing with these contracts, what people are waitlisting for etc. It is hard to know for sure what will pass and what will not. At first, I thought mine would pass because there were no 2005 points, but I guess that did not matter to Disney. Well, congrats on yours and have fun planning.

Congrats to all the recent success stories! Is it possible to put an entire thread on "Ignore"? We only have 150 pts. which is really perfect for our vacation habits but everytime I read through this thread it's all I can do to keep from scouring the resale websites!!!

 

[reesecup]

Beca,

Add us to your passing list!!!! Just found out today. I felt pretty confident about it, but was just so anxious to know for sure. Now, I can move forward with my vacation plans! Yippeeee! Oh, and I noticed another contract I want now, but I am probably already too late on it b/k it is a BCV! HI all you BWV neighboors (and the rest of you too). Oh, I'm just so excited, I'm about to pee in my pants (OK, not really). But, I am pretty darn excited!!!!

 

[bobbiwoz]

Congratulations reesecup, our newest BWV neighbors!

Bobbi

[reesecup]

Oh, well, the BCV one I was looking got gone, of course!
Beca?????? Did you go grab that? HA!
It was for 100 pts so I know one of you guys grabbed it! It was for Feb UY though and I really want to try to get one for Oct. if possible.
Plus, I would really like to add HHI. We would use that in the summer a great deal!

 

[NYsHiddenMickey]

Hey Reesecup- Congrats!!!

that contract is just like mine-- Now you just have to figure out what to do with all those points..But I am sure you'll think of something

 

[disgirl]

Congrats Reesecup. That is a great contract. Have fun planning your trips!!

Nope...but, thanks for BLAMING me!!! I really only want Aug, or maybe Oct. If it had been one of THOSE UY's, WATCH OUT!!!! (Actually, I'm broke right now...so, it wouldn't have mattered if it had been the BEST contract ever...it STILL wouldn't be mine!!!)

[Cinderpals]

Hi!

I hope that someone reading this thread was able to get one of the good BCV contracts that I saw! I know what you mean, Reece and Beca, I haven't closed on my contracts yet, and I'm still looking! I have so many different UYs now, I'm just looking at the banked points! I'll be patient, and wait until I at least book some ressies with my points before trying to add on again!

I'm still thinking good thoughts for everyone left in ROFR

 

[Beca]

Okay...I have a question for all of you. I was notified that I passed ROFR on Mon 2/7. I still haven't heard ANYTHING from the closing company. I seem to remember on past resales, that the closing company got the docs to me within a VERY short period of time.

Can anyone post here when the passed ROFR, and when they received their docs? I would really appreciate it.



Beca

 

[Cinderpals]

Beca, I had received docs before passing ROFR from the timeshare closing company. She had called me, and asked me to sign them, fax/mail them back to her. There was also a form in there, where if we payed $45 we would could have sped up our closing by 2-3 weeks. My husband didn't want to do that. I don't think that he's caught up with buying the points at both BWV and BCV! I received the form about a week after I had overnited my deposit check and signed contracts to the TTS, before leaving for WDW. I sent them back when I returned sometime last week.

They will do a title search, and make sure everything is paid up before releasing any funds to the sellers. I'm going to ask them to make sure the points are in order since I have some from '04. I just sent back my other deposit for new BWV OCT UY contract. (Almost went for OCT BCV 200 points with some '03, all '04 and '05 points instead!! Great contract and UY** Thought of you too!) I'm expecting those forms from the TTS to be sent back to the closing company later this week.

Thanks for asking this Beca! I was wondering the same thing; just how long it takes to get everything finalized before you can make ressies! I'm anxious to do that.

 

[jtiggercat]

I wouldn't worry too much. We received paperwork in the mail about a week after we got notice. From what I hear, the mail is running a bit slow these days, and I've heard comments about this within several other disucssion forums. If you don't get the paperwork tomorrow, you can always give them a call and ask them when it was mailed.

Well, on friday we got email from our Timeshare Store person, and WE PASSED!

$75 point at VWL, 350 points.

I thought it was 300 points but my husband said, no 350. He's elated! I'm astounded!

We think we may have passed becaused the contract was big enough that it may not have been attractive as an 'add on', although we can't quite figure out why Disney wouldn't just break up and re-apportion contracts as they see fit.

Well, for whatever reason, we're in!
